ViTacFormer is a unified visuo-tactile framework for dexterous robot manipulation. It fuses high-res visual+tactile data using cross-attention and predicts future tactile signals via an autoregressive head, enabling multi-fingered hands to perform precise, long-horizon tasks. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1942654308492927410

Chinese drone maker DJI has introduced a heavy coaxial quadcopter with an 80 kg lift capacity. In comparison the Ukrainian “Vampire” hexacopter lifts 15 kg. Among the characteristics are 62 inch blades, a 30 meter winch line, millimeter wave radar, and machine learning guidance. https://x.com/GrandpaRoy2/status/1940081596276867222
“Low payload capacity for dexterous hands.” “Tesla is still testing samples from multiple dexterous hand suppliers, trying at least three different technical approaches” Quite significant if true. Gen3 hand was unveiled 9 months ago but still hasn’t been shown doing any tasks. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1940581536971346347
