The Robotics Stack

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we are covering Niantic Spatial & their Large Geospatial Model (LGM). Then we give you a little update on Robot Hands which take up a huge chunk of R&D usually. After that we get to companies working on the Robot Girlfriend & Boyfriend idea for companionship e.g. Ubtech with their Uworld U1. Finally we wrap up with the Unitree IPO and the key financial points around it.

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we will take a look at Asimov, potentially the first true open-source humanoid robot. Before that Léo explains who Dyna is and why their new model & scaling approach are so interesting. We also check out Trossen Robotics & their lineup of data capture devices, including the new ones. And if you are more into the economics behind robots this episode also gives you a thorough analysis of robotics margins.

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we rank the top robotics companies worldwide by revenue, including usual suspects like Fanuc, Kuka & Symbotic but also lesser known companies. Then we explain the popular LLM to Robot workflows we see online & why you'd rather use something like Gemini Robotics 2, Google's newest Model (which we also discuss). Finally we end on a high note with spectacular Robot Fights from companies like REK, UFC, URKL & Battlebots!

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we have our first interview. The guest is Bryce Cianciotto who is working on a Next-Gen Actuator for robots. We are diving deep into how actuators actually work, the product of Bryce is the Orbit Actuator. We talk about different variations, the process that led him to this version and also applications and implications for the market.

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we are discussing Sunday Robotics and their success with the model Act 2, especially at folding laundry. Then we look into an Archer Aviation & Anduril collaborating on a new modern aircraft (Archer Halo / Anduril Thunder) Besides that, rumor has it that Anthropic was in talks trying to acquire Physical Intelligence. And we see new innovation for humanoid robots with the Italian Startup Generative Bionics and their humanoid GENE.01.

In this episode of the robotics stack podcast we are looking at 1X and their new robot NEO which will come with dexterous state of the art hand technology. Then we look into surgery robots, specifically the Da Vinci from Intuitive Surgical, which is potentially going to get competition by new setups e.g. Unitree Robot Hardware becoming useful for medical procedures. Our third topic is Terrafirma which is a company trying to make construction work autonomous by using AI, sensors & robotic components. And finally we look at Benchmarks & Evaluation for robot training. #1x #neo #podcast
