We present Berkeley Humanoid, a reputable and low-priced mid-scale humanoid research study platform for learning-based control. Our light-weight, in-house-built robotic is created particularly for discovering algorithms with low simulation intricacy, anthropomorphic movement, and high dependability versus falls. Efficient in omnidirectional mobility and enduring big perturbations with a compact setup, our system goes for scalable, sim-to-real release of learning-based humanoid systems.

This post provides Ray, a brand-new kind of audio-animatronic robotic head. All the mechanical structure of the robotic is integrated in one action by 3-D printing … This basic, light-weight structure and the different tendon-based actuation system below permit smooth, quick movements of the robotic. We likewise establish an audio-driven movement generation module that immediately manufactures natural and balanced movements of the head and mouth based upon the offered audio.

NEURA Robotics is amongst the very first signing up with the early gain access to NVIDIA Humanoid Robot Developer Program.
This might be fantastic, however there's a horrible great deal of dive cuts in that video.

I like that Unitree's tagline in the video description here is “Let's have a good time together.”
Is that “please do not do dumb things with our robotics” at the end of the video brand-new …?

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang provided a significant advancement on Project GR00T with WIRED's Lauren Goode at SIGGRAPH 2024. In a two-minute presentation video, NVIDIA described an organized technique they found to scale up robotic information, attending to among the most difficult problems in robotics.

In this research study, we examined the ingenious usage of a manipulator as a tail in quadruped robotics to enhance their physical abilities. Previous research studies have actually mostly concentrated on improving numerous capabilities by connecting robotic tails that operate exclusively as tails on quadruped robotics. While these tails enhance the efficiency of the robotics, they feature numerous drawbacks, such as increased total weight and greater expenses. To alleviate these restrictions, we propose making use of a 6-DoF manipulator as a tail, permitting it to serve both as a tail and as a manipulator. ยป …
