We are looking for the current best multi-view full-body 3d pose estimation model/software with Remi Cadene Any good advice? Should include hands pose estimation in addition to body preferably Better if able to use multiple cameras as inputs (multi-view) for open-source low cost robot teleop

(Other Twitter stuff) Human-robot and robot-robot collaborative carrying with mobile robots typically requires a manipulator arm. At iros2024, we introduce PACC, a novel passive-arm design that, coupled with a decentralized MPC, allows an efficient execution of such tasks with quadruped robots.

There surely must be more people here working on open source robotics? Please let me know who else to add.

(Posting old Twitter stuff for boosting connections/the algorithm) Open-source (and in python!) MPC for quadruped robots. Gradient-based (via acados) or sampling-based in #JAX. Plus, multiple robots, multiple terrains, and multiple gaits! Link: github.com/iit-DLSLab/Q...

DinoV2 is without a doubt one of the most important Self Supervised Learning (SSL) methods right now. But training it takes 32 80Gb GPUs which is not easy to come by for small labs. What if we could train a comparable high-res model on 24Gb of VRAM? That's what I hope to show you here soon!🤞🧵 #mlsky

Since AI is hogging all the hype, I wanted to put together a starter pack specifically for roboticists focused on open-source and education. If you have recommendations, including yourself, let me know! go.bsky.app/5p6RBnm

This guy pretty much sums up how I feel about robots after a month of work travel.

If you're into #Robotics #Robots #Robot you might like this starter pack: go.bsky.app/5CNUmby The feed searches the above tags, so if you use them your skeet will appear. If you'd like to be added to the pack then comment here.

Model Predictive Control (MPC) for legged robots is limited by model complexity. In our recent IROS24 paper, we show how partitioning the robot into smaller subsystems, each controlled in parallel by a faster dedicated MPC, can achieve complex whole-body motions more efficiently. 1/2
