Polymath Robotics

Big things happening on the podcast

We've all heard of AI solutions that claim to "build a robot." But it's never that simple. The real question for us is, "in what areas can AI be helpful to robotics?" In our latest blog post, Naveen Kulandaivelu identifies how he used LLMs to drastically speed up the creation of DBC files—the critical link between Polymath's software and the robots themselves.

As a robotics company, we rely on sim as part of the development process. Here's what's missing from current simulators according to our CTO Ilia Baranov From #Actuate2024

"I promise this is the only slide with math" - Alexander Yuen onstage at #ROSCon2024

Is MINExpo INTERNATIONAL secretly the best robotics trade show around? On Ep 49, our co-founders reflect on their experience at the event and how when it comes to robots, the mining industry might be the savviest one around. Discussion starts around the 12:35 mark after the guys invent an arsonist robot(??)

Nerd alert: we asked Alexander Yuen what he's presenting at #ROSCon2024 next week

Were Tesla's humanoid demos real? And is it ever OK for robot demos to be fake? The guys get into it on this week's episode of Automate It. What do you think? Let us know in the comments (you'll find the ep links down there too.) ?? Tesla discussion starts around the 18:20 mark.
