Take last week’s video of Agility using generative AI to tell Digit what to do with a simple verbal cue. It also, fittingly, seems to be where much of the potential generative AI research is heading. Pieter Abbeel is the Director of the Berkeley Robot Learning Lab and co-founder/President/Chief Scientist of Covariant, which uses AI and rich data sets to train picking robots.
These modular and origami-like robots can transform into any 3D shape, offering adaptability for space exploration missions and overcoming space limitations.
Origami Bot A team of researchers at Switzerland’s Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have come up with an ingenious origami-inspired robot that can turn itself into practically any three-dimensional shape. As seen in a video demonstration, the bot called Mori3 can walk around on four flattened limbs or even sway from side to side. […]
