Some assembly steps are still too messy for classic robot programming. @AudiOfficial is now working with Zurich-based @mimicrobotics to change that. Instead of scripting every motion, mimic uses an end-to-end pixel-to-action model. Cameras observe the scene, and the system

SONIC: Supersizing Motion Tracking for Natural Humanoid Whole-Body Control https://nvlabs.github.io/GEAR-SONIC/

We have seen rapid progress in humanoid control — specialist robots can reliably generate agile, acrobatic, but preset motions. Our singular focus this year: putting generalist humanoids to do real work. To progress toward this goal, we developed SONIC ( https://x.com/yukez/status/2024639427788857707

We trained a humanoid with 22-DoF dexterous hands to assemble model cars, operate syringes, sort poker cards, fold/roll shirts, all learned primarily from 20,000+ hours of egocentric human video with no robot in the loop. Humans are the most scalable embodiment on the planet. We

What can half of GPT-1 do? We trained a 42M transformer called SONIC to control the body of a humanoid robot. It takes a remarkable amount of subconscious processing for us humans to squat, turn, crawl, sprint. SONIC captures this “”System 1″” – the fast, reactive whole-body
