Agility robotics introduces Cassie, a dynamic and talented robot delivery ostrich

Agility Robotics, a spin-off of Oregon State University, is officially announcing a shiny new bipedal robot named Cassie. Cassie is a dynamic walker, meaning that it walks much more like humans do than most of the carefully plodding bipedal robots we’re used to seeing. This makes it better at handling the kind of diverse and complex terrain that we walk over all the time without even thinking, a talent that’s going to be mandatory for robots that want to tackle the different environments and situations that they’ll need to master to be actually useful around people.

Improving the Cockpit Computer using Companion Microcontroller
Sponsored by Infineon
Companion microcontrollers are a vital element of today’s complex automotive designs. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Matthew Goodavish from Infineon and Amelia Dalton investigate how the architectural evolution in automotive design has encouraged the need for companion microcontrollers, the role that safety islands play in the development of these systems, and the core system benefits that companion MCUs bring to these kinds of designs.
