12.45 pm news @m6info : how can we analyse & demystify AI-generated videos of humanoids? I was interviewed as an expert in #humanoid robotics to discuss their potential & limitations, as well as the role of ‘mule’ robots in operational contexts, cf #Ukraine. #Defence #Défense

Introducing ACT-2 Preview The first robotics model to unify broad generalization with high reliability. A single fine-tuning example can teach Memo a new behavior that generalizes. Zero shot, real unseen homes, 99% success rate.

Nice side-byside by @MACHINASUMMIT 2026 team: @anybotics🇨🇭 vs @BostonDynamics 🇺🇸 #quadrupeds #robots

Hey, do you know this robot? MyMemo ONE #CES2026 #Humanoids

A robotic hand that learns from humans! 🪬 @mimicrobotics built a robotic hand, the M1, that actually works for real manufacturing jobs. They designed it to match how humans move. Most robot learning starts with watching videos of people doing tasks, then tries to transfer that to a completely different robot body with different joints and fingers. It fails constantly. The steps don't map. The gripper doesn't move like a human hand. mimic solved it backwards. They built a wearable exoskeleton (the U1) that has the exact same structure as their robotic hand. When a human wears it and demonstrates a task, the data captures real finger movements that transfer directly to the robot. The hand itself is tendon-driven, motors live in the forearm and pull cables through the fingers like actual muscles do. This lets them pack more durable actuators in the forearm instead of cramming everything into the palm. The hand can sense forces down to 50 grams through the motor current. It feels when something's about to slip and adjusts grip automatically. Fifteen degrees of freedom. Twenty-one joints. Built to survive years of production work. They built everything in-house. Hardware. Firmware. The custom software that runs the control loops at insanely low latency. The data pipeline from demonstration to deployment. Nothing outsourced.

En 1981, una serie cogió la Odisea de Homero, la fusionó con la estética de "2001: Una odisea del espacio" y con las armas de Star Wars para llevarla al siglo XXXI. La animaron en Japón y marcó a toda una generación de niños españoles. Se llamó Ulises 31. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Braxo à Alexandre et ses équipes !

Quelle émotion de voir les Drones @Delair et @hexadrone défiler ce #14juillet ! #Champselysees 🇫🇷

future belongs to hardware innovation

Fraternité !

Le 14 juillet, la Patrouille de France a ouvert le défilé aérien devant les Champs-Élysées, suivie par une centaine d'aéronefs venus de toute l'Europe. Un moment fort du réveil stratégique de l'Europe, célébré ensemble. 🇫🇷 🇪🇺✈️

🇫🇷 De retour de sa mission américaine, la @PAFofficiel retrouve les Champs-Élysées. À ses côtés, deux Mirage 2000B pilotés par des équipages franco-ukrainiens. L’opération #14Juillet est lancée.

La Patrouille de France, mais virtuelle: ces fans de simulation traversent le ciel de Paris ce 14-Juillet, entre passion et rêve de devenir “ambassadeur numérique de la PAF” l.bfmtv.com/Utjs

Cette année, le ciel du 14 juillet n'appartient pas qu'aux défilés. Face aux violents incendies qui la frappent, la France peut compter sur la solidarité européenne 🇫🇷🇪🇺 Merci aux pilotes, aux sapeurs-pompiers, aux équipes au sol. D'ici et d'ailleurs.

Love this mini Eiffel Tower made by 800 drones (approximately) @LaTourEiffel @Paris #14juillet 🇫🇷

🇫🇷 @Paris, 13 juillet 2026 : on dit toujours qu'il faut finir en beauté… 🎆✨ 🌐 They say you should always end on a high note… 🎆✨

Bravo Delivrone 🇫🇷 x @RigiTech suisse🇨🇭 pour ce vol d'une distance de 60 km #Drones
