Google DeepMind Unveils Gemini Robotics for Advanced Real-World AI Integration
The new AI models aim to enhance robotic dexterity, adaptability, and safety, enabling robots to perform complex tasks and interact seamlessly with humans.
- Google DeepMind announced Gemini Robotics and Gemini Robotics-ER, AI models designed to bring advanced reasoning and action capabilities to robots.
- Gemini Robotics integrates vision, language, and physical action to enable robots to perform tasks like folding origami, handling objects, and responding to natural-language commands.
- The Gemini Robotics-ER model emphasizes spatial reasoning, allowing roboticists to customize and enhance robot behavior in dynamic environments.
- Safety remains a priority, with new benchmarks like the ASIMOV dataset to evaluate and mitigate risks associated with robotic actions.
- The models are being tested with trusted partners, including Apptronik, Boston Dynamics, and others, but commercialization timelines remain uncertain.
