Audience Favorite Award Winner at the 21st Annual Bend Venture Conference

As the co-founder of RoZero Labs, I am beyond thrilled to share our experience at this year’s Bend Venture Conference (BVC), where we were honored to win the Audience Favorite Award. The 21st annual Bend Venture Conference was held at Tower Theatre on October 17-18, 2024. Fourteen impressive finalists pitched their innovative ideas and business models over two days to hundreds of people, including angel investors, venture capitalists and startup founders. It was an incredible experience being among such visionary companies and investors, each one contributing to the vibrant entrepreneurial landscape here in Oregon.

Using Transformer Neural Networks for Robot Motion Planning with Visual Feedback

Researchers at Stanford invented a way to use transformers for robot motion planning with visual feedback called Action Chunking with Transformers (ACT). Action chunking is a concept from psychology that describes how our brain groups sequences of actions together as a chunk and executes the whole thing as a unit. They demonstrated that using this technique in robotics can significantly improve autonomous task performance because it reduces the opportunity for motion errors to compound over time. What follows is a description of the network architecture used for ACT.
