holy shit the future of robotics genuinely is now. we now have actual robots moving like humans plucking grapes and screwing lightbulbs.
we need more human-like robots in the world, especially in manufacturing where labor’s hard to find. to make robots like humans, you gotta capture the data that make us humans.
that’s where we step in. novonus.com check it out 😉

Introducing NEO’s 25 Degrees of Freedom, tendon-driven hands — nearing or surpassing human-level dexterity, strength, speed, and reliability. For seventy years, robotics worked around the hand problem. The humanoid bet is the reverse: it lives or dies at the fingertips.

im trying to post smth everyday, build in public, and not have claude cowork do it for me. just me and my brain.
brains are interesting, they provide every single useful signal for you to function. imo physical ai has to capture all of them to progress, and they’ve captured most of them.
im capturing the one mostly overlooked: impedance. and using EMG sensors to do so, including all other vision, force and IMU sensors, to build the sensor rig for the most complete dataset and processing/deployment pipeline for robots to train on.
it always comes back to the brain.

sf has taught me everyday’s a new race to get as much done as possible. you start from square 1 and try and do as much as possible. some days feel less productive even though you’ve worked more, like when you spend a whole day sending out emails and recording videos rather than building the actual product.
progress is progress as long as you’re getting closer to your goal, no matter how that may be.

natural language is part of your codebase now.
stale comments and docs give coding agents bad context, and bad context produces bad code.
we built drift-check, a linter for natural-language drift. It’s cut our merge/review time and bot costs by ~30%.
our friends are loving it🫶🏻
