Honored to be invited by the FANUC India team to their office yesterday. Grateful for the warm hospitality and the appreciation shown for the business we’ve done together this financial year.
Looking forward to continued collaboration and shared success!
Researchers at EPFL’s Neuroengineering Laboratory, led by Pavan Ramdya, aim to replicate the workings of the brain of the common fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. We spoke with Ramdya about the exciting prospects for robotics.

Next was a compelling talk by Katerina Fragkiadaki on learning world simulators from data at the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1Fo0j8f95A (11/12) #robotics
First was the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence robotics symposium. I particularly liked the opening keynote by @rodneyabrooks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xn_LCmoprMs (2/5) #robotics #AI

Morelle appeared at the #TaipeiCycle show & spoke of a breakthrough on energy density & offering a sub-15 minute charge.
A 'habit changer and a game changer', so says Gary Fisher in a chat with us this week:

Hey! Are you a student who wants to use #bevy to do #robotics in #rust?
We've just got a job posting for two remote summer internships through the Google Summer of Code! Check it out at https://discourse.ros.org/t/osrf-google-summer-of-code-2025/42653/1, or hunt down `grey` on the Bevy Discord to ask questions directly :)
Looks super cool!
Next was a great talk by Karl Pertsch on scalable robot learning in the real world at UW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e97JUYkXTlY (4/5) #robotics
After running a #robotics workshop in a local makerspace I've donated a #StoRPer kit and set up one of their laptops so that people can go back in the open maker nights and tinker more! #robot #opensource #micropython

It's another case of science-fiction becoming science. A shape shifting liquid based robot. Thankfully, it does not have a tendency for terminating.

Next was an interesting talk by Nikolay Atanasov on learning environment models for robot autonomy at the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKixcYzo4fg (5/7) #robotics
Next was an excellent talk by Mac Schwager on perception-rich robot autonomy and neural environment models at the GRASP Lab. The methods Schwager introduces are impressive, and you get a free explainer on NERFs! Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Cs1pOaKDHw (4/7) #robotics #AI
