Hello Robot

Simply useful robots

[Hello Robot @hellorobotinc]

Can one navigation policy work across many different robots? Researchers from the @UW and the @allen_ai introduced One RING, a simulation-trained navigation policy that successfully transfers to real robots without additional training. #HelloRobot

We’re excited to share that Hello Robot will be exhibiting at the Robotics Summit & Expo in Boston this May! We can’t wait to connect with fellow innovators, developers, and robotics enthusiasts shaping the future of the industry.🤖

See you in Boston! https://t.co/kn6XqLY9VY

[Hello Robot @hellorobotinc]

"There’s a whole set of new features, some hidden, some very obvious, that just make this fundamentally a total redesign, top to bottom."

Thanks to The Robot Report for a great writeup on the all-new Stretch 4!

What if the future of home robotics doesn’t look humanoid at all?

Our founder Aaron joined the What’s Your Problem? podcast to share why useful robots should be practical, affordable, and built for real life. 🤖

[Niamh O' Donnell 🌉 @thatniamhod]

Last night, @Unusual_VC & @roboto_ai hosted our 2nd dinner on Scaling Reliability in High-Stakes Robotics🤖

From surgical robots to autonomous forklifts, industrial arms to flying taxis, we saw different domains but the same reality:
As robots scale from pilots → fleets, the long tail of edge cases + operational complexity become the problem. We dug into:
1️⃣ End-to-end learning in regulated, safety-critical systems
2️⃣ Detecting out-of-distribution events at massive scale
3️⃣ How connectivity tailwinds (e.g., Starlink) are unlocking reliable edge data

Grateful to the incredible group of robotics leaders who made it such a rich conversation.

New research from Aalto University introduces EGG, a framework that helps robots connect what they see with what happens, linking objects to real-world actions. A big step toward smarter, more intuitive autonomy 🤖🧠🚀
