Dyna Robotics raises $120 million to advance robotic foundation models on ‘path to physical artificial general intelligence’

by

Dyna Robotics has closed a $120 million Series A funding round, led by Robostrategy, CRV, and First Round Capital, with participation from Salesforce Ventures, NVentures (Nvidia’s venture capital arm), the Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund, Samsung Next, and LG Technology Ventures.

The new capital will be used to expand its world-class research and engineering team and accelerate the development of its next-generation foundation model as the company works to deliver high performance general-purpose robots in commercial environments.

Dyna has made rapid progress since raising a $23.5 million seed round in March, including launching its DYNA-1 model, a breakthrough robotics foundation model that pushed the performance of robots to a 99+ percent success rate in 24 hours of non-stop operation.

Bot Auto’s driverless truck completes first hub-to-hub test run in Houston

by

Bot Auto, an autonomous trucking company that says it is “redefining logistics through transportation-as-a-service (TaaS)”, has successfully completed its first “humanless hub-to-hub validation run in Houston”.

The truck operated seamlessly within its defined operational domain with no one in the cab or remote assistance, navigating real-world traffic conditions. The run was executed at sunset, successfully navigating day and night operations.

Differing from a commercial launch, this milestone serves as a validation benchmark, demonstrating the maturity and safety of Bot Auto’s autonomy stack and test protocols. [Read more…] about Bot Auto’s driverless truck completes first hub-to-hub test run in Houston

Mendaera undertakes first surgical procedures with Focalist handheld robotic system

by

Mendaera, a healthcare technology company developing next-generation robotics technology to simplify ultrasound-guided needle procedures, today announced the world’s first procedures performed with the Focalist handheld robotic system.

Urologist Karen Stern, MD, (Mayo Clinic Arizona) successfully used Focalist to achieve precise kidney access during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), the gold standard treatment for large kidney stones.

Dr Stern presented the milestone procedures at the World Conference on Endourology and Uro-Technology (WCET), a prestigious global meeting for surgeons advancing minimally invasive kidney stone treatment.

ETH Zurich researchers develop biohybrid system that mimics bone-muscle interface

by

Researchers at the Soft Robotics Lab at ETH Zurich have developed a biohybrid system that mimics the biological interface between bones and muscles, enabling improved force transmission. This technology could be applied not only in robotics but also in the development of medical implants.

Muscles are powerful, yet flexible and soft. They also possess a high degree of fine motor control, can grasp even delicate objects, and are capable of self-repair in the case of minor injuries. A key factor in the precise and effective transmission of force is the role of tendons, which connect muscles to bones.

To transfer these properties to robotics, scientists are researching biohybrid solutions. They combine synthetic and biological materials to replicate the structure and function of biological tissue and the movement of living organisms.
