Releasing the Energy-Book 🔋 from its first appendix's chapter, where I explain how I create my figures. 🎨 Feel free to report errors via the issues' tracker, contribute to the exercises, and show me what you can draw, via the discussion section. 🥳 https://t.co/ngiB8zcnv2

We have developed a new tactile sensor, called e-Flesh, with a simple working principle: measure deformations in 3D printable microstructures. Now all you need to make tactile sensors is a 3D printer, magnets, and magnetometers! 🧵

We are saddened by the passing of Peter Lax of @NYU_Courant on May 16, 2025. As a highly esteemed applied mathematician, contributing to the fields of computational mathematics and PDEs, among many others, Dr. Lax was a SIAM member for over 30 years.

You don't need 7B+ parameter models to run pick-place! We are demoing tinyyy RUMs, ~30M running on device with i5 CPU at #ICRA2025 today from 1-5 PM, between halls A2/A3. Best of all, these models are 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼-𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘁! So try your own objects and test the generality of RUMs.
