Very cool humanoid parkour work from the @LightOrigins_ guys ...they are onto sth...tks for the sharing!
One of the key advantages of legged robots like humanoids should be how effectively they can move across a wide variety of terrain types to accomplish their task. But Light-Loco-Parkour from the team at Light Origins aims to change that: using only onboard sensing, they show a
Great to see our @BitRobotNetwork HIW500 dataset being put to good use! Congrats to the Unitree team.

"If you haven’t tried using Astra (or whatever comes next) to solve your problem, then you have not done your homework." This is the new norm. Either get used to this or become irrelevant.
What is the role of academic computer vision research in the age of increasingly powerful large models? Is GPT-6 Astra a step change? How can a researcher have an impact today in academia? These are the questions I ask myself as I head off to ECCV 2026, a conference I’ve
@Yi__Li When do u thjnk a GPT-X model will be able to do humanoid loco manipulation? The other thing im not sure abt this direction is the latency of inferencing a giant god AI, especially for long horizon tasks thay probably required closed loop high frequency control
Specifying reward functions for robots is one of the hardest things about reinforcement learning. Robot rewards often need to be very detailed; metrics like progress can be ill-defined and hard to estimate. This leads to most robot learning defaulting to sparse rewards or simple preference learning. But naive preference learning (having human annotators choose one trajectory over another) is an easy solution, but obscures a lot of the signal in complex tasks and can make learning a lot less efficient. @marceltornev, @anubhamahajan01, and @AbhijnyaBhat join us to talk about their solution: freeform preference learning, which lets annotators define natural-language axes to compare trajectories over. This improves real-world performance on long-horizon manipulation tasks over sparse rewards and simple binary preference learning. Watch Epsiode 103 of RoboPapers, with @micoolcho and @DJiafei, today to learn more!
@rerundotio is awesome (we use it daily)! Great to see them working our HIW500 dataset 🙏
What does a real humanoid robotics dataset actually look like? Humanoid robots are expensive and complex, which makes their data unusually difficult to collect - and difficult for most people to get hands-on experience with. We previously shared a post on conversion code for

Huge contribution to the community…congrats again to @bgxc & the team @LightwheelAI
Robotics has a data problem, and egocentric data is a compelling way to solve it because egocentric data is (1) scalable — it’s cheap to collect — and (2) easily captures the breadth and diversity of real human tasks, while (3) being true to real physics. Lightwheel recently
GPT-6 does real2sim end to end from robot demonstrations. I gave it only multi-view RGB and robot actions, and one simple prompt. It calibrated the cameras, built the object assets, performed physics system-ID, ran MuJoCo, and rendered in Blender.
WebGPU and latest AI models means sophisticated software sld be distributed via web and deployable/usable directly on browsers.
With Astra, we sld be 3D printing humanoids soon and replicating real anatomy. This will represent a 3rd path beyond direct drive and tendon based mechanics. Westworld is coming.
Bye bye steering wheel and pedals
