Replying to @NVIDIAAI
@NVIDIAAI recently released ASPIRE v1.0. The newest AI models demonstrated that coding agents can reliably generate policies for a range of tasks. We have been following ASPIRE closely @NoriRobotics, experimenting with a code-as-policy ecosystem for the Nori-A3.

We’re also working with NVIDIA’s robotics team to explore the right compute for Nori. Alongside our Isaac Sim workflow, we’re testing GR00T and Cosmos and exploring Jetson hardware, building toward a closer connection between simulation, learning, and real robots.

Nori retweeted
It’s @ycombinator Demo Day this week! We reviewed ~10% of the batch and have made 6 investments. - More than 30% of the batch is Hard Tech - Some have huge traction, e.g. one has already sold thousands of drones. - The average cap we saw: $40M Here’s our top picks: - Isengard Industries - Atomarine - Applied Electrodynamics - Nori Robotics - Exosat - Egoist

Test out our robot!
A cute little browser kinematic viewer I threw together. running WebGL with multi-cam views, TAA, SSAO and more composer/post processing passes than really necessary. sub 250 draw calls per moving frame. still at lab.norirobotics.com/nori/mo…
