Just shipped @rosorg based devcontainer support for the Artemis Mission Simulator 🌕! Check it out: Merged PR: github.com/jasmeet0915/ar… Repo: github.com/jasmeet0915/ar… The project now supports 2 development workflows: 1️⃣ One-click setup with VSCode's devcontainers. 2️⃣ Manually build and run the docker dev container using the helper scripts.

OpenCV 5 open-source computer vision library released cnx-software.com/2026/06/10/ope… The main change is the implementation of a new DNN engine with better ONNX coverage to enable a wider range of AI models for detection and segmentation, as well as vision language (VLM) and generative text (LLM) models. It runs on the CPU only for now, but GPU and non-CPU HAL support are being worked on. Other changes include Core changes for new data types and performance optimization, improved 3D vision support, and revamped documentation.

We at b»robotized just love Gaussian Splats! That is why we were super thrilled when we read that someone made a plugin for displaying splats in Rviz. So we had to try it right away! Video: Our #AID4SME project in Isaac Sim & Rviz, both showing the GS of the lab

🤖 ✨ Following up on my earlier post on my 'Home Robot' with reactive obstacle avoidance navigation nearly a month ago, I am super excited to share my next technical milestone: proactive voice + vision + navigation assistant, integrated and all running on-device. Goal: Autonomous home assistant 🤖 (say Alexa on wheels 😉) Capabilities: - Completely vision based (the only sensor is an RGB-D camera). Maps the whole area and stores landmarks used for navigation. - Hands-free conversation: wake-word activation, then continuous follow-up dialogue with short-term memory; auto-sleep on silence. Voice-commanded autonomous navigation to landmarks. - Multimodal scene understanding: "what do you see?" answered by an on-device VLM from the camera feed - Real-time object detection via YOLOv8n Tech Stack / Tools (100% on-device): Master controller: @NVIDIAAI Jetson Orin Nano Super Chassis: Waveshare wave rover 4WD Audio: ReSpeaker XVF-3000 mic array (AEC/beamforming), Piper TTS Speech: openWakeWord + whisper.cpp (CUDA / GPU accelerated) Language/Vision: @GoogleAI Gemma 4 E2B multimodal via llama.cpp (GPU accelerated) Perception: YOLOv8n on TensorRT (GPU accelerated) Autonomy: @OpenRoboticsOrg ROS2 Humble, Nav2 (Planner: Smac Hybrid, Controller: RPP), RTAB-MAP VSLAM (EKF fused RTAB-MAP's visual odometry with dead-reckoning odometry) Peak memory: ~6.7GB / 8GB with the full stack live Key engineering takeaways: - NVIDIA developer forums are great, they helped me solve a lot of issues really fast. - It took me a while to figure out the right VLSAM approach for my vision based sensor. The learnings here have been immense RTAB-Map for RGB-D camera, SLAM Toolbox for LiDAR based nav, CuVSLAM for Stereo camera - On constrained edge hardware, the system-level bottleneck is memory and GPU contention, not model quality. Right-sizing the models (2B over 4B, small over medium STT) was what made concurrent operation stable. - A tiered runtime: a lightweight always-on tier + an on-demand navigation tier, was essential to verify everything fit in 8GB. - The bulk of the engineering effort was robustness: surviving audio glitches, boot-time race conditions, and resource pressure, not adding capabilities. Here's 🥂 to my technical PoC: a robot that sees, hears, reasons, and moves, with nothing leaving the device.

Precise spatial data requires perfect calibration. We built automated calibration stations using robotic arms to sweep camera targets, resolving precise camera matrices, IMUs, and wrist-to-tag spatial transforms. We even verify sub-millisecond temporal alignment by pointing our camera nodes directly at high-speed timer monitors to guarantee perfect synchronization. 👇

SLAM test in the lobby of the ICRA 2026 venue. Wide-open spaces. Glass reflections. Continuous foot traffic. Insight 9 maintained stable tracking. Running pure VIO with NO loop closure, it achieved near-zero drift while generating a colorful 3D point cloud in real time. 💡Note: All VSLAM & depth compute runs on-board & streams via ROS! Laptop is ONLY for registration & visualization, no extra ICP or BA. #ICRA2026 #SLAM #Robotics #PointCloud #ROS #EmbodiedAI
