If you use sampling-based motion planning, you'll want to check out this exciting new work from @wilthomason and @kingstonzak.
@kingstonzak, @KavrakiLab and I have new work on massively accelerating robot motion planning (planning for the @FRANKAEMIKA Panda in 40 μs - about 500x faster than MoveIt!) on ordinary CPUs/SoCs:

At #IROS2023? Come check out this forward-looking work from @DrRobotPhD and @kingstonzak interactions between robot motion planning and privacy! Today at 14:42 in the afternoon "Motion and Path Planning" session.
Excited to share this study with @kingstonzak @LydiaKavraki @kavrakilab about the privacy implications of robot motion planning. Intelligent #robotics might be vulnerable to unique threats to privacy. Check us out @ieeeiros . @anucecc @ANUComputing @roboticsANUComp @RiceCompSci

We had a blast attending #csbw2023 today at #ACMBCB2023 @acm_bcb! Many great talks on structural bioinformatics in the post-AlphaFold2 era. Our very own Felix Quintana presented his work on using Large Language Models and protein structure to predict pathogenicity. Check it out!

This lets it automatically find valid pick-and-place actions to rearrange the objects - maintaining stability even on surfaces with challenging obstacle geometries, like the bumpy table shown here. If you're in London, check out Yiyuan's poster at the 15:00 Weds session!

Yiyuan solves hard-to-model object rearrangement problems from only a start and goal configuration - no PDDL for actions or discretized state. The planner embeds a physics engine and uses it to dynamically discover and search over stable intermediate arrangements.
