I want to thank @Flexport for donating 60,000 surgical masks, 34,000 gloves, 2,000 surgical gowns, and 50 thermometers to the City, as well as Sup Stefani (parody), who was instrumental in making this happen. To donate bulk supplies, visit Give2SF.org sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…

DONATE!! Even kimK endorses it

everytime i see people within six feet of each other

this is america

Dear UPS, USPS, FedEx, & Amazon employees.. Thank you.

Excited to share our paper at RSS 2021 this week on Hierarchical Neural Dynamic Policies (H-NDPs)! Can robots perform tasks in a dynamic fashion, just like humans? Can we learn *real-world dynamic skills* in a *generalizable* manner? shikharbahl.github.io/hierarchical-n… 1/9

Human-to-Robot Imitation in the Wild abs: arxiv.org/abs/2207.09450 project page: human2robot.github.io

How can we enable robots to perform diverse tasks? Designing rewards or demos for each task is not scalable. We propose WHIRL which learns by watching a single human video followed by autonomous exploration *directly* in the real world (no simulation)! human2robot.github.io

Super excited to share recent work on WHIRL: In-the-Wild Human Imitating Robot Learning - the robot learns in just 1-2 hours of interaction!

Nice overview article covering our RSS 2022 work (WHIRL) and home robotics in general!

Affordances from Human Videos as a Versatile Representation for Robotics abs: arxiv.org/abs/2304.08488 project page: robo-affordances.github.io

🤖 Robotics often faces a chicken and egg problem: no web-scale robot data for training (unlike CV or NLP) b/c robots aren't deployed yet & vice-versa. Introducing VRB: Use large-scale human videos to train a *general-purpose* affordance model to jumpstart any robotics paradigm!

Researchers expand ability of robots to learn from videos @carnegiemellon techxplore.com/news/2023-06-a…

New research from CMU Robotics Institute Deepak Pathak enables robots to learn household chores by watching videos of people performing everyday tasks in their homes. bit.ly/447Va8f

Robots have developed the skill to learn by watching videos: The Visual-Robotics Bridge (VRB) model can teach a robot a new task in roughly 25 minutes using only reference video - without needing human interaction or a simulated environment.

Humans learn by watching. Robots should too.
