#439012 Video Friday: Man-Machine Synergy ...Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your Automaton bloggers. We’ll also be posting a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next few months; here's what we have so far (send us your events!): RoboSoft 2021 – April 12-16, 2021 – [Online Conference]ICRA 2021 – May 30-5, 2021 – Xi'an, ChinaDARPA SubT Finals – September 21-23, 2021 – Louisville, KY, USAWeRobot 2021 – September 23-25, 2021 – Coral Gables, FL, USALet us know if you have suggestions for next week, and enjoy today's videos. Man-Machine Synergy Effectors, Inc. is a Japanese company working on an absolutely massive “human machine synergistic effect device,” which is a huge robot controlled by a nearby human using a haptic rig. From the look of things, the next generation will be able to move around. Whoa. [ MMSE ] This method of loading and unloading AMRs without having them ever stop moving is so obvious that there must be some equally obvious reason why I've never seen it done in practice.
[ Fraunhofer ] via [ Gizmodo ] Ayato Kanada at Kyushu University wrote in to share this clever “dislocatable joint,” a way of combining continuum and rigid robots. [ Paper ] Thanks Ayato!
This could totally happen in real life, and we need to be prepared for it! In addition to winning the Best Student Design Competition CREATIVITY Award at HRI 2021, this paper would also have won the Best Paper Title award, if that award existed. [ Paper ]
[ Nature ]
[ Bryant Lake Bowl ] It doesn't take a robot to convince me to buy candy, but I think if I buy candy from Relay it's a business expense, right? [ RIS ] DARPA is making progress on its AI dogfighting program, with physical flight tests expected this year. [ DARPA ACE ] Unitree Robotics has realized that the Empire needs to be overthrown! [ Unitree ]
[ Windhover ]
[ U Michigan ]
[ Flexiv ] Thanks Yunfan! I don't know why anyone would want things to get MORE icy, but if you do for some reason, you can make it happen with a Husky. Is winter over yet? [ Clearpath ] Skip ahead to about 1:20 to see a pair of Gita robots following a Spot following a human like a chain of lil’ robot duckings. [ PFF ] Here are a couple of retro robotics videos, one showing teleoperated humanoids from 2000, and the other showing a robotic guide dog from 1976 (!) [ Tachi Lab ] Thanks Fan! If you missed Chad Jenkins' talk “That Ain’t Right: AI Mistakes and Black Lives” last time, here's another opportunity to watch from Robotics Today, and it includes a top notch panel discussion at the end. [ Robotics Today ]
[ CMU ]
