- Watch: Korean humanoid robot performs viral K-POP dance, learns by watching videos. While China dominates headlines, ROBOTIS’ AI Sapiens learned the CORTIS REDRED Challenge via smartphone video, ditching expensive mocap suits. This open-source pipeline uses video capture, retargeting, and Sim2Real reinforcement learning on DYNAMIXEL-Q actuators. It’s a massive leap for accessible physical AI, letting hobbyists train full-body motions without professional gear. Whoa, that's mega-illegal to democratize robotics so fast. With an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX driving 23 degrees of freedom, this stack-eye platform lowers barriers for everyone from researchers to data terrorists. I'll swap that node in twelve minutes; the future of automation is here, and it’s dancing.
