Enough of this nonsense!
Presenting PARAM: India's most powerful indigenous robot dog. Not assembled, not bought, BUILT IN INDIA, built by INDIANS. For our nation, for our century, for our world!
Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

@Divyansh5Sharma @narendramodi @adgpi @AshwiniVaishnaw @GoI_MeitY @startupindia मन तो वहीँ था Sir परन्तु आज समय की कमी के कारन डालना पड़ गया video
देश पे सवाल उठे तोह advt बनाने का इंतज़ार नहीं कर सकते 🇮🇳

[General Autonomy @GeneralAutonomy]

@NileshArnaiya @narendramodi @adgpi @AshwiniVaishnaw @GoI_MeitY @startupindia Tough to quantify time as we took a lot of learnings from our humanoid to build this but the project has been on for about 7 months now and we continue to improve it every fortnight.

It's Tuesday folks! Here's what's going on in Indian tech:

1. @temple is coming soon

2. @GeneralAutonomy's robot dog is loose in HSR Layout

3. @hiro_sugimoto_ wrote an excellent Tigerfeathers piece on the inevitability of Meesho

And the week is just getting started 😎

[General Autonomy @GeneralAutonomy]

@eiseniaethics @RuntimeBRT We are working tirelessly to introduce redundancy on the various visual input methods for locomotion. In one or max two more months, we will showcase extreme autonomy performance.
