After spending time with penguins and mantas rays during my 6months of travel and break from reality. I’ve decided to get back to my first passion, robotics. Today I can finally announce I’ve joined @agilityrobotics as CTO and am excited for what’s next! https://t.co/q9neAU8w7v

See everyone in Boston next week for the AMR & Logistics conference. After I’ll be headed out to ROSCon and then on a much needed multi-month vacation, ping me if you want to grab a beer. 🤓#AMRL2022 #ROSCon2022

What did I just watch? … Really? Another big company building a useless robot with no customer or meaningful use case and wasting the limited robotics talent out there 😶

Tonight a real piece of history was found… @mifulapirus still had in his possession an original FYS Systems business card :) I guess we did it! 😉

In April 2002, I had the rare pleasure to participate in NASA’s micro-gravity program and fly on the KC-135 with @AstroMD_Yvonne, today, almost exactly 20 years later, I got to see her again at MARS. She is a true legend and has inspired me so much!

Nice! 🤓
We published more details on our learned stereo system we use on our robots. We have found it to be more useful than existing active/passive depth sensors especially on shiny surfaces which are common in the home environment.
