中国のROSイベント、発表ほぼ全部エンボディドAI関係なのすごい。ROSが「ロボットを動かす土台」から「AIを載せる前提の土台」に変わってきてる感じがする。日本のコミュニティにもこの流れ来るのかな。 #ROS #フィジカルAI
#ROSCONCN 「自変量」という会社がフィジカルAIについて発表 今日の発表ほぼ全部エンボディドAI関係 これは中国のROSイベントらしい

Thursday at ROS By-The-Bay @IntrinsicAI I'll show iPhone, iPad and Mac joining a #ROS2 graph. No bridge. The library behind it just shipped: swift-ros2 v3. Native Swift over Zenoh or DDS: topics, services, actions, parameters. Verified live on Humble, Jazzy, Kilted and Lyrical.

「デモで見たROS2はあんなに速いのに量産組み込みやると使えないのはなぜか? 5つの原因と対策」 これいいなあ こういう発表を待ってた #ROSCONCN

#ROSCONCN 次はアメリカのCESでピンポンやってた sharpa Robotics シンガポールの会社だと思ってたら、SG, ベイエリア, 上海のそれぞれに本社があって、開発は上海が最大らしい 現在の市場は大学などR&D 今回出してたハンドはよかったが、発表はもうちょい広報ぽい

DIY Open-Source robot vacuum cleaner update 3D printed main brush gear in POM (aka Delrin, acetal). POM is best for gears like these - but super difficult to 3D print. I've figured out how to print POM gears easily, almost like printing PETG.
