Video Friday is your weekly collection of superior robotics movies, collected by your pals at IEEE Spectrum robotics. We additionally submit a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics occasions for the following few months. Please send us your events for inclusion.
ICRA 2024: 13–17 Could 2024, YOKOHAMA, JAPAN
RoboCup 2024: 17–22 July 2024, EINDHOVEN, NETHERLANDS
ICSR 2024: 23–26 October 2024, ODENSE, DENMARK
Cybathlon 2024: 25–27 October 2024, ZURICH
Take pleasure in at this time’s movies!
Festo has robotic bees!
It’s a really intelligent design, however the measurement makes me petrified of regardless of the bees are that Festo appears to be accustomed to.

Boing boing boing!

Why the heck would you’re taking the difficulty of programming a robotic to make candy potato chips after which not scarf them down your self?

Cellular robots can transport payloads far higher than their mass by automobile traction. Nevertheless, off-road terrain options substantial variation in top, grade, and friction, which might trigger traction to degrade or fail catastrophically. This paper presents a system that makes use of a vehicle-mounted, multipurpose manipulator to bodily adapt the robotic with distinctive anchors appropriate for a specific terrain for autonomous payload transport.

Seems that engaged on a collaborative activity with a robotic could make people much less environment friendly, as a result of we are likely to overestimate the robotic’s capabilities.

Wing posts a video with the title “What Do Wing’s Drones Sound Like” however solely features a transient snippet—although nothing with out background room noise—revealing to curious viewers and listeners precisely what Wing’s drones sound like.
As a result of, look, a pair seconds of muted audio beneath a voiceover is actually probably not answering the query.

This primary occasion of ROB 450 in Winter 2024 challenged college students to synthesize the data acquired by their Robotics undergraduate programs on the College of Michigan to make use of a scientific and iterative design and evaluation course of and apply it to fixing an actual, open-ended Robotics drawback.
This Microsoft Future Leaders in Robotics and AI Seminar is from Catie Cuan at Stanford, on “Choreorobotics: Instructing Robots Learn how to Dance with People.”
As robots transition from industrial and analysis settings into on a regular basis environments, robots should be capable to (1) be taught from people whereas benefiting from the total vary of the people’ data and (2) be taught to work together with people in protected, intuitive, and social methods. I’ll current a sequence of compelling robotic behaviors, the place human notion and interplay are foregrounded in quite a lot of duties.
