6 statements about Home Robotics, every show
Vogt: End-to-end autonomous laundry is the milestone for home robotics
“To get a machine that thinks in this very rigid world to work with such malleable items has been like this tough research problem for a long time for anyone to be able to go buy a thing, put it in their home and without any other instruction than like my cloth…”
Vogt: Modern imitation learning solves unstructured home environments where classical mapping fails
“Using classical approaches, Where you have computer vision and you're trying to like reconstruct three D objects or fit to a map would make this like a really, really challenging and computationally intensive problem. Moving to more modern techniques like end …”
Vogt: Home robots can launch much faster than autonomous vehicles
“I think in the home and most consumer app applications and even most industrial applications safety is still critically important, but the bar that you need to reach or the functionality that you need to re reach or the constraints you can put on the system en…”
Chintala: Home robotics is five to seven years away from commercialization
“Home robotics being, like, five to seven years away into commercialization. I think, like, It's not, like, next year or two years from now, but, like, five to seven years from now, I think, like, a lot more robotics companies might pop out.”
Rodrigues: Autonomous localization and perception tech will enable home robotics in 10-20 years
“I think that a lot of the technology that's been developed in terms of localization will then end up working in the home. You have all these cool perception pieces that we'built, allowing us to move around and allowing us to see and interact with things. Reall…”
