October 8, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

A motivated employee is an asset to any company. They play a significant role in the success of an organization and have the energy and drive to perform their tasks optimally for the company’s benefit.

Without motivation, a company can start experiencing a decrease in productivity and may fail to achieve its objectives. Still, motivating employees is no easy task.

The working attitude and performance of your employees are essential elements for the company’s success. While it is true that people must work to earn, they must also be passionate about their job and share the company’s vision of success.

MIT unveils dexterous robotic hands that can ‘manipulate thousands of objects with ease’

December 8, 2021 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory has revealed a dexterous robotic hand that scientists say can “manipulate thousands of objects with ease”. (See video below.)

At just one year old, a baby is more dexterous than a robot. Sure, machines can do more than just pick up and put down objects, but we’re not quite there as far as replicating a natural pull towards exploratory or sophisticated dexterous manipulation goes.

OpenAI gave it a try with “Dactyl” (meaning “finger” from the Greek word daktylos), using their humanoid robot hand to solve a Rubik’s cube with software that’s a step towards more general AI, and a step away from the common single-task mentality. DeepMind created “RGB-Stacking,” a vision-based system that challenges a robot to learn how to grab items and stack them.

Scientists from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), in the ever-present quest to get machines to replicate human abilities, created a framework that’s more scaled up: a system that can reorient over two thousand different objects, with the robotic hand facing both upwards and downwards.
