This all brings me back to my earlier post. Life is short - enjoy your good days. Hug your family. Don't waste time on things that don't interest you. Love each other. Forgive each other. Find balance in your life and maintain it.

Just in time! 🤖⚙️🛠️

Startup Robust.AI, founded by cognitive scientist Gary Marcus + roboticist Rodney Brooks, raises $15M to make building smarter robots easier - via @forbes @forbestech forbes.com/sites/amyfeldm…

Robots operating in mixed reality environments have lots of new communication options available to them... with fascinating new design tradeoffs! MIRRORLab UG Jared Hamilton and PhD student Thao Phung (w/ co-authors Nhan Tran and I) explain in our HRI 2021 paper! <THREAD>

Uncertainties are everywhere in robotics and are fundamental for probabilistic methods such as factor graphs. However, frames, conventions, and other concepts can make things confusing. I wrote 3 posts for gtsam.org invited by Frank Dellaert to explain this.

So excited for Tracy, our CS@Mines outgoing DH! She's been an incredible role model and mentor during my time at Colorado School of Mines. The department is going to greatly miss her but we're excited to see her keep doing great things at a national scale!

Great weekend at @mitrealityhack talking to some members of XR Access and learning more about ways to make AR/VR more inclusive & accessible. Our team won the XR for Inclusion track prize #accessibility #inclusivedesign youtu.be/AwH1Jf3ELsE

Tomorrow at 9am PT: see the #accessibility winners of @mitrealityhack present on their Inclusive User Testing app and #hackathon experience! xraccess.org/hackathon-incl…

Got to record some AR vids around #Ithaca and bring some #GenerativeAI 3D models to life! I. Yosun Chang's app lets you prompt and conjure 3D low poly mesh in AR! Hopefully, integrating it with #VisionPro won't require much work to sculpt realities and speak the world into existence 😎

So Cornell Computer Science allows us to minor in anything on top of a computer science PhD...guess what I'm minoring in outside of research? 📽️ Check out our 5-minute short film, "The Tiny Explorer," about a curious robot exploring Cornell University's vibrant fall foliage! ✨

Here's yet another #NeRF video... but this one is of the musical variety. Enjoy! youtube.com/watch?v=1uoaRG… #WeAreTheNeRFs

Ph.D. student Nhan Tran is lead researcher on a project developing a new app to help users record accurate time-lapse videos of body parts--an unmet need in remote medicine and telehealth applications--on which Ph.D. student Ethan Yang collaborated: news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/1…

A new app developed by Cornell researchers helps users record highly accurate time-lapse videos of body parts – a surprisingly difficult task and an unmet need in remote medicine and telehealth applications. Watch to learn more 🤳⬇️ cis.cornell.edu/app-creates-ti…
