It's been a big fall for humanoid robots, with the reveal of two new prototypes in the US. Now Russia has entered the ring with Aidol—sort of. The robot's grand reveal at a technology conference in Moscow didn't go as planned. It emerged from backstage and walked about five feet before face-planting onto the stage. Two humans leapt to pick up the robot and dragged it offstage, shielding it with a black curtain. Aidol was intended to mark Russia's entry into the global race for humanoid machines,

🤖 This was the moment Russia’s first artificial intelligence (AI) humanoid robot fell on stage just seconds after its official debut at a technology event in Moscow on Monday (Nov 10). Videos circulating on social media showed the robot, AIdol staggering onto the stage and raising its hand to wave at the crowd. Moments later, it lost balance and toppled over, scattering parts on the stage. Staff were seen rushing to hide the robot behind a screen as it was removed from the stage. The robotics f

These robots are being used to build detailed maps of forests, with the aim of improving management and conservation. They have been developed as part of the #DigiForest project, which involves Oxford Robotics Institute and partners across Europe. Researchers are also using #drones, backpack-mounted laser scanners, and a mapping and analysis tool to monitor forests 7 times faster than traditional methods. Here’s how it works. AI is becoming an increasingly important tool in #forest management an

#Russia’s first AI #humanoid #robot, #AIdol, made a dramatic debut in #Moscow, walking on stage to Rocky’s theme before toppling face-first. Developers from Idol Robotics blamed calibration issues, calling it a “real-time learning” moment. Details here🔗 http://toi.in/-Qn7-Y #ArtificialIntelligence #AI | The Times of India
