When engineers in the robotics research community think of what we'd like autonomous agents to tackle in the future, we often target "dull, dirty, and dangerous" tasks. However, despite a sustained boom in robotics research over the last decade, the
In August, the California Public Utilities Commission made history when it voted to allow two self-driving car companies, Waymo and Cruise, to commercially operate their 鈥渞obotaxis鈥 around the clock in San Francisco.Within hours, Cruise reported at- One thousand feet underground, a four-legged creature scavenges through tunnels in pitch darkness. With vision that cuts through the blackness, it explores a spider web of paths, remembering its every step and navigating with precision. The sound of
