First Pilot-on-board Transition Flight

Joby Aviation is a company developing electric air taxis for commercial passenger service, today announced it has reached a landmark moment in its aircraft test program, successfully completing flights with a full transition from vertical to cruise flight, and back again, with a pilot onboard.

Transitioning from vertical to horizontal flight is a key design attribute of the Joby aircraft, allowing it to take-off and land vertically like a helicopter, while maintaining the efficiency and speed of a conventional, fixed-wing aircraft in forward flight. This unique capability will enable Joby to deliver rapid and seamless passenger service directly to popular destinations.

Snowcap is the revolutionary new way to get the most out of your cold plunges.

The Snowcap lid has been designed to bring you the world’s first thermoelectric cold plunge. With the Snowcap lid you get a water cooling and heating system so you can take plunges at your desired temperature without any ice or additional chilling systems. You also get a filtration system to keep your water clean, and even an ice maker for when you want that “ice bath” feel.

The Hunter WOLF carries heavy loads across difficult terrain. It is a powerful and compact 6X6 skid-steer. It will go where manned vehicles can’t — over narrow trails, steep slopes, and dense jungles.

For the military, the Hunter WOLF has proven its ability to accurately fire a wide variety of weapons, including a 30 mm autocanon.

In forestry and agricultural applications, HDT’s Drover WOLF can: create firebreaks in rough terrain where manned vehicles cannot go; deliver feed supplements to thousands of cattle operating on its own 24/7, and autonomously spray orchards & vineyards.

Tesla Optimus robot dancing

Elon Musk has released a new video of Tesla's Optimus robot dancing. This is a real video and not CGI.

Klein Vision unveils production prototype of the AirCar

So far, the flying supercar of Klein Vision has completed over 170 flight hours as well as more than 500 takeoffs and landings. It’s not just an aircraft; it doubles as such. When not in the air, owners can drive around AirCar on roads like a normal automobile.

Its wings retract when on land and deploy when it is about to take off. Its body features the shape of a real-life supercar, just with an exposed propeller and lifted tail at the rear.

New Silicon Valley restaurant using robots to make your hamburgers

IRB 360 FlexPicker and YuMi cobot work together in a self-contained burger-making cell to deliver made-to-order meals, assembling them with precision and speed. From real-time ingredient tracking to flawless topping placement, this robotic cell is changing the way we think about fast food.

What’s happening at BurgerBots shows how automation can reduce tedious tasks, fill labor gaps and overall make foodservice jobs more appealing, and free people up to focus on what matters most – a great dining experience.

Humanoid Robots Are Learning To Move Like Real Athletes

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and Nvidia have developed a system called ASAP, which helps humanoid robots move more like real humans by bridging the gap between simulation and real-world physics.

Edible aquatic robots could be eaten by fish to eliminate waste

Each motorboat-shaped bot is about 5 cm long (2 in), weighs an average of 1.43 grams, and can travel at one-half to three body lengths per second.

More specifically, their hulls are made out of commercial fish feed pellets that have been ground into a powder, mixed with a biopolymer binder, poured into a boat-shaped mold, then freeze-dried.

Well, initially a batch of them would be placed on the surface of a pond, lake or other body of water. As they proceeded to randomly squiggle their way across the surface, onboard sensors would gather data such as water temperature, pH, and pollutant levels.

Eventually, their hulls would become waterlogged enough that they would become soft, and start to sink. At that point, fish or other animals could eat them. In fact, an alternate possible use for the robots is the distribution of medicated feed in fish farms.
