Humanoid robotic ARTEMIS coaching for RoboCup. Fully autonomous soccer enjoying outside.

Imperial College London and Empa researchers have constructed a drone that may face up to excessive sufficient temperatures to enter burning buildings. The prototype drone, referred to as FireDrone, may very well be despatched into burning buildings or woodland to evaluate hazards and supply essential first-hand information from hazard zones. The information would then be despatched to first responders to assist inform their emergency response.

We built-in Stable Diffusion to provide Ameca the ability to think about drawings. One of the large challenges right here was changing the picture to vectors, (strains), that Ameca might draw. The focus was on making quick sketches which might be enjoyable to observe. Ameca at all times indicators their paintings.
I simply don’t perceive artwork.

Oregon State Professor Heather Knight and Agility’s Head of Customer Experience Bambi Brewer get collectively to speak about human-robotic interplay.

Quadrupeds are nice, however they’ve far more levels of freedom than it’s snug to manage. Maybe movement seize can repair that?
[ Leeds ]
The solely factor I do know for positive about this video is that Skydio has no concept what’s occurring right here.

We are very unhappy to share the passing of Joanne Pransky. Robin Murphy shares a retrospective.
[ Robotics Through Science Fiction ]
ICRA 2023 was sort of bonkers. This video doesn’t do it justice, in fact, however there have been a staggering 6,000 folks in attendance. And subsequent 12 months goes to be even greater!

India Flying Labs not too long ago engaged greater than 350 women and boys in a two-day STEM workshop with regionally-made drones.

This paper proposes the applying of a really low weight (3.2 kg) anthropomorphic twin-arm system able to rolling alongside linear infrastructures corresponding to energy strains to carry out dexterous and bimanual manipulation duties just like the set up of clip-sort chook flight diverters or conduct contact-primarily based inspection operations on pipelines to detect corrosion or leaks.

In collaboration with Trimble, we’re saying a proof-of-idea to allow robots and machines to observe people and different machines in industrial purposes. Together, we now have built-in a patent-pending PFF observe™ sensible-following module prototype developed by Piaggio Fast Forward onto a Boston Dynamics’ Spot® robotic platform managed by Trimble’s superior positioning know-how.

X20 tunnel inspection quadruped robotic can obtain correct detection and actual-time importing of faults corresponding to cable floor discharge, corona discharge, inner discharge, and temperature abnormality. It can even adapt to inspection duties in rugged terrain.
[ DeepRobotics ]
If you’re questioning why the heck anybody would attempt to construct a robotic arm out of stained glass, properly, that’s a wonderful factor to marvel.
