Take pleasure in as we speak’s movies!
On this paper, we introduce ROSE, a novel mushy gripper that may embrace the item and squeeze it by buckling a mushy, funnel-like, thin-walled membrane across the object by easy rotation of the bottom. Due to this design, the ROSE hand can adapt to a variety of objects that may fall throughout the funnel, and deal with them with nice gripping drive.

Thanks, Van!
Legged robots are designed to carry out extremely dynamic motions. Nonetheless, it stays difficult for customers to retarget expressive motions onto these complicated methods. On this paper, we current a Differentiable Optimum Management (DOC) framework that facilitates the switch of wealthy motions from both animals or animations onto these robots.

I bodily cringed watching this occur.

NSFW.
I’m together with this as a result of it’s Scotland, and also you need to see it.

Two main robotics pioneers share how they’re driving disruption in wildly totally different industries: well being care and development. We hear how these improvements will impression companies and society, and what it takes to be a robotics entrepreneur in as we speak’s financial local weather. Vivian Chu, cofounder and CTO, Diligent Robotics, and Tessa Lau, founder and CEO, Dusty Robotics.
