Some stats here on what happened in 100 episodes on @RoboPapers Somehow a casual chat with @chris_j_paxton on need for more technical podcast on robotics research led to ~100 hrs of wonderful chats & many new friends along the way (special shoutout @DJiafei ) Some thoughts:

What does a real humanoid robotics dataset actually look like? Humanoid robots are expensive and complex, which makes their data unusually difficult to collect - and difficult for most people to get hands-on experience with. We previously shared a post on conversion code for

Robotics has a data problem, and egocentric data is a compelling way to solve it because egocentric data is (1) scalable — it’s cheap to collect — and (2) easily captures the breadth and diversity of real human tasks, while (3) being true to real physics. Lightwheel recently

With Astra, we sld be 3D printing humanoids soon and replicating real anatomy. This will represent a 3rd path beyond direct drive and tendon based mechanics. Westworld is coming.
