Cobot - Collaborative Robotics, Inc’s Post

Video number 4 this week. I don't tell this story often, but my passion for radio controlled planes, helicopters, and drones is what ultimately led me to robotics. As someone who has been passionate about everything that flies since I was a young kid, when the opportunity to partner with Gur K. to help him build the Prime Air drone delivery program for Amazon arose in 2014, I jumped on it. This early work introduced me to the sheer scale of the opportunity to apply autonomous systems to logistics networks and spurred me to make the jump fulltime into robotics in 2017. Nowadays, building and flying RC planes is a means of getting back to the basics of building a simple actuated system... the importance of quality building instructions, the right materials, the right tools, structural stiffness, actuation forces, wireless links, battery management, safety protocols... and simply a way for me to relax and recharge a bit. This week's much shorter video also has a slightly different message about the value of compounding actions and experience. Plus a shout out to Blue Origin for an amazing demonstration this past week of what compounding experience, mastered over time, can deliver! Oh, and it's very much day 1 on my video editing skills, but thankfully those skills will compound too. #robotics #rcairplanes #compoundingaction

Exciting advancements in autonomous delivery are transforming the landscape of last-mile logistics, promising a more efficient and sustainable future. As we look around, ground robots, specifically Unmanned Ground Vehicles

With the evolving tech, we need to make sure that things remain under our control. Most of the AI as we know is at a stage that we all call as Narrow AI. But we need to keep in mind that as it evolves to Superintelligence(ASI),It's foundation is not just Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics but it goes further and more deeper for a brighter and better future of mankind and all living beings. For those who have forgotten the 3 laws: First Law: A robot cannot harm a human or allow a human to come to harm Second Law: A robot must obey human orders, unless those orders conflict with the First Law Third Law: A robot must protect itself, unless that protection conflicts with the First or Second Law. That era's science fiction is beginning to become our reality let's make sure that our future generations live to see the better of it and not "The End" from it.

SRI is spearheading a way for autonomous systems, such as self-driving vehicles and drones, to effectively operate in evolving and challenging environments, from city streets to war zones. Under Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)'s Transfer from Imprecise and Abstract Models to Autonomous Technologies (TIAMAT) program, we'll leverage our novel learning-based paradigm, FLASH, to bridge the simulation-to-real gap and replace data-hungry learning methods to help drones and self-driving vehicles adapt with even the most dynamic and unfamiliar environments.

UK Defence Sector Increases Investments in AI and Robotics The UK's defence sector is ramping up its focus on AI and robotics, recognising the strategic advantage these technologies bring. From surveillance drones to autonomous vehicles, AI is transforming how we think about national security. Are these changes shaping the future of defence? 🤖💂 #UKDefence #AIDriven #NationalSecurity #FutureOfDefence #Robotics

A great article written about Breaker by the awesome team at Breaking Defense. The article covers how our CRUX OS platform is enabling robots to act more like humans, offering new possibilities for autonomous operations. Check out the article here: https://lnkd.in/ga2nmUfT

A novel integrated stabilization and path tracking control framework, which includes the combined-slip effect and wheel dynamics, is developed for safe autonomous navigation of unmanned ground vehicles (recently publication in IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles). The loss of cornering forces caused by increased longitudinal slip are considered in the prediction model. The integrated and safety-aware framework with constraint adaptation resolves possible conflicts of the multi-actuated system for lateral stabilization, while trajectory tracking on various surface conditions.
