We’ll be at the Grace Hopper Celebration in Philadelphia next week. If you're attending, stop by kiosk 1212-10 to meet some of our amazing women engineers and learn about opportunities to join our team. We’re hiring across many roles, and we’d love to chat with you!

Our team is presenting work at the Conference on Robot Learning, Conference on Robot Learning, in Munich, Germany this week! Learn more about our accepted research — theaiinstitute.com/news/corl-roun…

Introducing Theia, a vision foundation model for robotics developed by our team at the Institute. By using off-the-shelf vision foundation models as a basis, Theia generates rich visual representations for robot policy learning at a lower computation cost. theaiinstitute.com/news/theia

The AI Institute is now the Robotics and AI Institute, or RAI Institute! Our name and branding have evolved to better reflect who we are and what we're building. Stay tuned for more exciting things ahead.

Announcing our new partnership with Boston Dynamics! We're teaming up to advance humanoid robotics through reinforcement learning. Learn more — rai-inst.com/resources/pres…

“The key of RL is to discover new behavior and make this robust and reliable under conditions that are very hard to model. That’s where RL really, really shines.” Marco Hutter and Farbod Farshidian discuss the latest progress from the Institute. spectrum.ieee.org/ai-institute

In this demo, Ultra Mobile Vehicle (UMV) drives, turns, jumps, tricks, and comes to a sudden stop called a track-stand. All of the driving, landings, balance, and track-stands are done using reinforcement learning.

Using reinforcement learning, we trained policies for Boston Dynamics Spot that allow the robot to achieve record running speeds of 11.5 mph (5.2 m/s) — over three times faster than Spot's default max speed.
