🤖 Physical AI: The DARPA Legacy & the Road Ahead — The Parallel Playbook: What Autonomous Driving Can and Can’t Teach Physical AI

The DARPA challenges offer a useful playbook for physical AI. They show how an impressive technical demonstration can help create an industry. But they are not a timeline. The first DARPA Grand Challenge for autonomous vehicles took place in 2004. DARPA launched the Robotics Challenge eight years later, in 2012, with the Finals taking place in 2015. It is tempting to conclude that physical AI is therefore eight or eleven years behind autonomous driving. I don’t think that works.

🤖 Robot Recycler Salvages Parts from Broken Machines

Objects constructed by robots are ubiquitous. If you’ve used a car, household appliance, or smartphone today, you’ve used an object constructed at least in part by robots. The more products that manufacturers want to produce (and consumers want to consume) at lower costs, the more industrial robots will be needed. There are over 4 million industrial robots in use worldwide, according to the International Federation of Robotics . And researchers predict that number to grow to over 16 million by 2...

Voyager 2 was Running Low on Power Until NASA Engineered a ‘Big Bang’ to Buy Another Year

NASA engineers found a way to free up power aboard Voyager 2, helping the nearly 50-year-old spacecraft continue its scientific work. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory team decided to simultaneously shut down certain powered components and replaced them with options that use less energy—while also making sure Voyager 2 stayed warm enough to function properly. Decaying […] The post Voyager 2 was Running Low on Power Until NASA Engineered a ‘Big Bang’ to Buy Another Year appeared first on Good N...
