@latentspacepod@ebarcuzzi An obvious one to me is the perception stack where the industry is already very accustomed to making long term bets on silicon enabling a use case. The long term bets are the same, but the solution space broadens to not just thinking about sensor silicon but also compute silicon.
Unitree humanoids are finally getting to work. 🤖
Unitree just deployed their G1 robots at their own factory. Powered by the UnifoLM-X1-0 embodied model, these bots are actually handling manufacturing tasks on the assembly line.
It is pretty wild to watch robots literally building their own kind.
@HaoruXue@breadli428 Agreed, organizers at this workshop regularly let speakers go over 5-15m. This also made it hard to coordinate time across workshops. Definitely something they need to pay attention to.
@aj_hugs Do what works for you and the project, but I never see this kind of modeling after several years on the job. This is a way to do top down modeling, but I think you’ll find that it’s brittle and might not scale well when faced with big architecture changes.
@cixliv@PTrubey This whole conversation is confusing. Most American robot companies are developing their own actuators. Many times those actuators have parts that are sourced in China or even assembled in China but that is not the same thing as a Chinese actuator.
@TheHumanoidHub The black potting compound is not insulating, it’s actually the opposite, thermally conductive for heat dissipation. It’s electrically insulating though.
@andrewmccalip If this was ferromagnetic the behavior would be totally different. It would immediately snap to the lowest energy state that increases flux density through the magnetic circuit. You would see the sample pinned to the floor instead of float up.
