Boston Dynamics has published a technical breakdown of how Atlas learned to perform soccer drills – including the Ghost Rabona – using professional motion capture data, motion retargeting, and cloud-based reinforcement learning that condenses a year of physical trial and error into 24 hours of simulation.
Boston Dynamics has published a technical blog explaining how Atlas learned to lift and carry objects exceeding 100 pounds using reinforcement learning trained across millions of GPU-parallelized simulations, with the behavior developed within weeks of the robot’s public debut.
Genesis AI has unveiled GENE-26.5, a robotics foundation model paired with a human-scale robotic hand and a data-collection glove that enables 1:1 skill transfer from humans to robots, targeting complex long-horizon manipulation tasks at commercial scale.
Sony's Ace robotic arm has become the first autonomous system demonstrated to be competitive with elite human table tennis players, according to a study published in Nature, tracking a ball…
