Introducing ACT-2 Preview
The first robotics model to unify broad generalization with high reliability. A single fine-tuning example can teach Memo a new behavior that generalizes.

China's progress in humanoid robots deserves more attention.
The video below has <300 views on YouTube, while the robot appears to be
- more agile than @Tesla's Optimus
- more dexterous than @agilityrobotics's Digit
- (likely) a lot cheaper than both

Rumors confirmed: our robot has arms.
Being part of the pace of robotics right now feels unreal — breakthroughs everywhere, and we get to build some of them. Thanks to everyone who’s visited and shared in the excitement. The future’s racing toward us
Looking back, it’s wild to see how much has changed. The work, the thinking, the pace. Grateful to work alongside you @chichengcc

The most insane gait I've seen on a humanoid. Walking with locked knees is much more energy efficient as the motors don't need to be engaged all the time.
Public info of EngineAI:
- team of 36
- raised ~14M USD
- investment from SenseTime…
Silicon Valley can keep convincing themselves they are the best at “software”, “AI”, until a Chinese hardware startup pulls off the best AI-driven locomotion on a production humanoid.
New hardware companies from China won’t be satisfied w…

Introducing 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐇𝐀 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 🌋 - Pushing the boundaries of dexterity with low-cost robots and AI. @GoogleDeepMind
Finally got to share some videos after a few months. Robots are fully autonomous filmed in one continuous shot. Enjoy!
I wish we can come back to this tweet in a decade and be like "Hey here is when we finally cracked data collection".
Low-cost, portable, hardware agnostic. I could not ask for more!

Led by @GoogleDeepMind, we present ALOHA 2 🤙: An Enhanced Low-Cost Hardware for Bimanual Teleoperation.
ALOHA 2 🤙 significantly improves the durability of the original ALOHA 🏖️, enabling fleet-scale data collection on more complex tasks.

Robots are not ready to take over the world yet! @zipengfu and I just compiled a video of the dumbest mistakes 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐇𝐀🏄 made in the autonomous mode 🤣
We are also planning to organize some live demos after taking a break. Stay tuned!
Not just cooking! We made another video showing what 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐇𝐀🏄 is capable of in a real home, inspired by the famous PR1 video.
2024 will be the year of robotics, and this is just the beginning!
We open-source all hardware and software of 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐇𝐀:
