In 2018, I didn’t recognize the importance of the original DeepMimic paper. At the time, humanoid robots were rare and domain randomization was still relatively new. Today, many demos and whole-body controllers are powered by DeepMimic-inspired methods. 🧵

Day one of ICRA 2026 done! 🤖
Already feels like the biggest robotics conference I've been to. The expo floor is packed with new anthropomorphic hands, half-humanoids and mini humanoids.

Everyone's talking about VLAs, the problems with teleoperation, using sim-to-real RL for dexterous manipulation, and whether tactile sensing is actually necessary.
If you're working on any of these, reach out. I'm at ICRA all week and happy to talk.

Everyone's talking about VLAs and VLMs for robotics. For humanoids, the whole body controller underneath matters a lot too. Without good whole body control, even the most capable VLA can't complete the task. 🧵

Everyone asks if Atlas can bring them a drink, but this robot can bring you the whole fridge. Using AI-driven behaviors, Atlas is doing hard work and coordinating its whole body to manage heavy objects, balancing complex contact points with accuracy and reliability.

If you know the ins and outs of CPU vs GPU simulation, the intricacies of contact detection, and get excited about building large-scale simulation for RL, this could be the perfect role for you.
I’ll be at CoRL 2025 — let’s grab a coffee ☕ and chat!

#RSS2024 was a great! I enjoyed the talks, demos, posters and Delft. It was one of the best organized conferences. Looking forward to RSS 2025 in Los Angeles.
