Pushy Robots Learn the Fundamentals of Object Manipulation

Researchers have compiled a dataset that captures the detailed behavior of a robotic system physically pushing hundreds of different objects. Using the dataset — the largest and most diverse of its kind — researchers can train robots to "learn" pushing dynamics that are fundamental to many complex object-manipulation tasks, including reorienting and inspecting objects, and uncluttering scenes.

Program Speeds Development, Production of 3D Printed Foam Applications

After nearly 80 years with minimal innovation, the foam industry is now employing 3D printing to produce products that are more comfortable, safer, lighter, and can be customized for each individual. The complexity of bringing 3D printed foam to-market has now been simplified by EOS North America and its Additive Minds applied engineering team who have launched their Digital Foam program.
