Our decades-long work in AI is driving progress everywhere even in places you wouldn’t expect like Quest 3’s Touch Plus controllers. No tracking rings—AI models for estimating their position got so good we don’t need them anymore. Result is sleeker, more versatile controllers

Proprietary vs open algorithms in perception systems, what metrics should a company use to compare the two? This is important when claiming system X is superior to system Y.

Cost cutting and lowest price has led us to where we are today. Insecure and brittle supply chains

I think with the backing of big companies like @amazon RO2 Fozy will finally be the one. #goros
Every time I give ROS another chance, this time in hopes that the new ROS2 Foxy release is finally The One, I'm reminded that it's *still* not ready for prime time Latest issue: Despite following Foxy installation to the letter, get "catkin: command not found" @OpenRoboticsOrg
