What happens when robot world models learn from human experience at scale? ๐ค
DreamDojo from NVIDIA Research is a generalist robot world model pretrained on 44K hours of egocentric human videos and then post-trained on robot data to generalize across new objects and environments.
After distillation, it runs at 10 FPS for live teleoperation, policy evaluation, and model-based planning.

@amazon
just acquired
@faunarobotics
the company behind the soft-bodied humanoid robot Sprout. For years, Amazon focused on robots inside warehouses. Now the real question is: Are we about to see Amazon build robots for our homes? The challenge was never getting a robot to work in a controlled environment. The challenge is surviving the messy reality of human spaces. Sprout was designed for exactly that. If humanoid robots become a consumer product, who gets there first: Amazon, Tesla, or someone else? #robotics #humanoidrobot #automation #amazon #ai #futuretech

Robotic fingers are progressing faster than we think.
Here, motors embedded in the fingers, onboard actuators inside each finger segment, in this Wuji Tech robot hands created this smooth multi-joint movements.
