we just got backed by @fdotinc š weāre building the future of robotics: plug, play, and talk to your robot. no soldering, no coding, no phd required. just usb-c, ai, and your intuition. build a working robot in minutes, not weeks.

1/ Ever wonder why many VLA demos look smooth only after 5-10Ć video speed-up? Running VLAs in real time (or faster) is not one problem. Itās several tightly coupled ones. Here is a "mini literature survey" thread on recent papers (RTC, SAIL, VLASH) in this paradigm.

I am quite sure there are many more startups building in stealth for humanoid robotics. This industry is going to be huge
These 75+ humanoid companies around the world really show just how massive this humanoid robotics wave is. Again, Iām just excited and grateful to be alive to witness what might be the biggest tech revolution in human history. Itās just the beginning, buckle up please.

This whole setup was made in weeks by @a_andlyu at @fdotinc during blueprint Highlights: - custom vacuum toolhead - berry picking policies - works in different lighting Physical AI is not limited to big tech and VC backed startups, it's accessible now
Take my word⦠from now on out you will never find plastic berries in your mix of good berries. Next week: limiting the damage from the rolling and making sure clamshells close

At this rate, we gonna have: 15 year old LPs funding 15 year old GPs funding 15 year old Founders
I donāt think founders under 18 should take VC funding. Keep experimenting. Stack skills. Build your tribe. Get grants or credits if you need. But donāt take the devilās gold. Every dollar comes with expectations you donāt want at that age.

We were yapping about all sorts of ways things could be much easier for robotics. Love their perspective on robotics Best of luck to their launch for OORB
Building robots requires time and efforts, we think it shouldnāt. Introducing OORB! You can now pre-order with a discount on teams license -> https://t.co/AXKD7NIoEt

Iāve built ROVs in the MATE ROV Competition Always wondered if we could cut the tether Bandwidth has always been the critical issue This team is trying to do it Would love to meet them
Arjun cold-DMād me (he had just 24 followers at the time). We funded them. He and his team are building underwater drone swarms to provide high-bandwidth networks beneath the sea. They moved to SF. Welcome to @fdotinc

Canāt believe people actually changed their travel plans to come to our event.
Chaiho Wednesday Tech Night was a blast! Packed with insights: Ryan, Isaac & Qi Liu shared Silicon Valley funding, frontier VLA models & award-winning hackathon stories. Big thanks to all the developers & entrepreneurs! #EmbodiedAI #VentureCapital #Hackathon #ShenzhenTech

Everyone including our judges said your tuning for SmolVLA is amazing Glad to have you on the team
It's absolutely incredible for us. We never imagined we could design the hardware for a liftable platform and debug the VLA model for the workflow all within a single day. This has been an incredibly satisfying solution for us.

With VLA models, affordable hardware and 3D printing, hardware hackathons are now possible software applications hackathons are cool but they are everywhere lol there r too many of them
Why Open-source With Isaac sim, GR00T, SmolVLA, 660$ XLeRobot can organize stuff into drawer and zipping up bag in 2 days Made by MakerMods @IsaacSin12 @QILIU9203 @Ryan_Resolution on @seeedstudio @huggingface @NVIDIARobotics Home Robot Hackathon in Shenzhen (Bay Area next)
