I'm honored to be part of this amazing cohort of scientists! AI interacts with millions of people via screens, but the next step is interaction with the physical world via robots. Our @schmidtsciences project studies how robot "brains" can be safely deployed in the physical world

As part of Citadel founder and CEO Ken Griffin’s transformative investment, we’re now known as the Kenneth C. Griffin School of Computer Science! With this new support, we’re ready to ask bigger questions! cmu.edu/news/stories/archive…

Long-Horizon Adaptive Manipulation Planning (LAMP) helps robots plan not only where an object needs to go, but also how they can work together to get it there🤖🤝 MSR student and project co-lead Shuai Zhou presented this research at #IROS2026 yesterday! ri.cmu.edu/lamp-helps-robots…

Humanoids can’t always just hit the brakes and power down 🤖🛑 CMU researchers and @Siemens developed PRISM, a new way to monitor when a humanoid can safely stop, helping robots know when to stop before things get risky! #IROS2026 ri.cmu.edu/knowing-their-lim…

1/ We introduce TrackEverything: a 3D point tracker that tracks all points across all frames of long videos (1000+ frames). Our key idea is to tie computation to unique 3D scene content rather than redundant 2D pixels in a video. trackeverything.github.io

Carnegie Mellon's robotics expertise will be on global display next week as thousands of researchers and industry leaders convene in Pittsburgh for #IROS2026! See you there! 🤖 🤝 bit.ly/3V9mSSW

Manipulation is harder when the robot flies. 🚁 Moving the arm can shift the drone, and wind can push it off course. The policy and controller have to work together. Here's AM-Bench: A Simulation Suite and Benchmark for Aerial Manipulation ambench.github.io #CoRL2026

Why do humans like to watch robots fall? Associate Professor Changliu Liu (@ChangliuL) weighs in on this phenomenon on CNN! 👇 #TartanProud cnn.com/2026/09/11/world/vid…

Humans learn by interacting with the world: How can we teach robots to similarly adapt to ambiguous dynamics? Introducing Wiggle and Go! #CoRL2026. We find that a specialized model can learn rope properties from just one interaction, and complete complex dynamic tasks. The robot wiggles a rope once, figures out how it behaves, then goes, using the estimated dynamics to execute the task. No real-world training data. No retries. #robotics #robotlearning

We introduce GTA-2, a multi-VLM framework that synthesizes executable robot manipulation skills from reusable, object-centric task-axis components Zero-shot, no task-specific demonstrations or training. gta2-project.github.io 🧵 1/9

The CMU Paths to AI Research Program (PAIR) connects undergrads with graduate student mentors from across SCS who provide perspective on opportunities, questions and uncertainty that come with pursuing artificial intelligence research! #TartanProud cs.cmu.edu/news/2026/pair-ai…

Text2TactileGraphics turns text prompts into 3D-printed raised graphics that incorporate shape, texture and Braille. It can help people with low vision create & explore tactile representations of objects that might otherwise be difficult to experience! ri.cmu.edu/bringing-images-t…

RI seminars are BACK for the fall semester! 📆 Fridays ⏰2:30pm 📍Tepper 1403 YouTube playlist (bookmark this if you ever can’t make a seminar!): piped.video/playlist?list=PL… Join us this Friday for our first kickoff w/ Stephanie Gil!

Sept 15, @southpkcommons & @CarnegieMellon will gather the research community to discuss the density of robotics + deep tech talent that come out of CMU We have a stacked line up from @CMU_Robotics @damionshelton, (founder of @agilityrobotics) Deva Ramanan Howie Choset

Where do foundational models actually meet the real world? That's the question behind the 3rd AI Meets Autonomy workshop at IROS 2026! 📍 Pittsburgh | 🗓️ Thu, Oct 1 | 8:00–12:30 AM #IROS2026 🧵👇

CMU recently welcomed Takahito Tokita, CEO of @FujitsuOfficial, and Yasuhiko Hashimoto, President and CEO of Kawasaki Heavy Industries. They visited the Robotics Innovation Center, @NREC_CMU and the AI Science Foundry, CMU’s Biological and Chemical Innovation Cloud Lab.

2週間前くらいだけど、@CMU_Robotics のSummer Programを修了しました〜 ビーズを使ったソフトロボティクスの研究をやってました。9月末までCMUで研究を続けて、最後はピッツバーグで開催される #IROS2026 に参加して帰国予定です〜 ちゃんと論文としてまとめられるように頑張ります！

この度、@CMU_RoboticsのRISSプログラムを修了しました！🤖✨ この夏、素晴らしい仲間や研究者の方々に囲まれながら、ロボティクスの研究に取り組めたことに心から感謝しています。 RISSは一区切りですが、あと2ヶ月弱Pittsburghに残り、ここからさらに成果を形にできるよう頑張ります！
