💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🦘🌴 Sifakas might look like they're performing a silly sideways dance, but their distinctive hopping is actually an adaptation of their tree-dwelling skills. These lemurs typically move through the #forest canopy by "vertical clinging and leaping," and when they're on the ground, they transform that same movement into a kangaroo-like bounce.

The footage, captured by a camera disguised as a chameleon, shows this unusual adaptation in action.

Xunxiao robot was seen delicately plucking tea leaves at a tea garden in Huizhou, south China's Guangdong Province.

The robot boasts ability to handle complex, unstructured tasks better than traditional industrial robots. It creates real-time 3D maps of complex environments and can identify stairs, slopes and perforated surfaces.

Xunxiao can also handle tasks such as inspecting power equipment or handling intelligent warehouse sorting.

Deserted robots II Metallic season

And this is my scene based on MechWarrior 2 (Ms Dos). Somewhere in space, there is a planet. It is only sand on this planet. Mountains with sand. And plains with sand. Such a planet-desert. You patrol this planet. And walking in the plains. You accurate made steps with your robot.

U.S company Cosmic Robotics hopes to speed up solar panel installations with their robot Cosmic-1A, which can install one panel every 30 to 40 seconds. Consisting of a robotic arm mounted on an 8-wheeled vehicle, it can place the heavy panels with millimetre precision 🤖 techcrunch.com/2025/04/16/cosm #Robots #Robotics

Researchers at UCLA recently released a video showing a small two-legged robot called Mini π (developed by Chinese company High Torque Robotics) navigating around obstacles and maintaining its balance using reinforcement learning algorithms 🤖 interestingengineering.com/inn #Robots #Robotics

Interesting EngineeringWatch: Mini robot uses AI to flip, dodge, walk like a pro parkourerA new video shows Mini π, a compact bipedal robot, using reinforcement learning to walk, balance, and navigate small obstacles.

@planet4589 : "When I was a kid 🧒, it was #LEO. Now, the frontier is out near the #asteroid belt, and the #Moon and #Mars are becoming part of where humanity just hangs out, maybe not yet as people, but with #robots. Meanwhile, #LEO is so normalized that it doesn’t take a #SpaceAgency to deal with it. You just call #SpaceX. Thousand years from now, perhaps more people live off Earth 🌌 than on it" cearkadia.edu.pl/jonathan-mcdo

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be returning to The Great Exhibition Road Festival this June for another live episode!

I'll be chatting to a panel of experts about humanoid #robots - why we're fascinated by them & what roles they might play in our future society 🤖

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: OK Go's "#Love" music video took 36 attempts to capture in a single take. They turned a Budapest train station into a hall of 63 mirrors manipulated by robot arms programmed to move with 0.01-degree precision. 🦾🪞

The whole setup spans about 100 meters, with each robot performing movements that synchronize with the #music. BTW they instantly stop if they detect contact with anything – like the hundreds of sharp edges careening around a person's head!
