Inha University SPARO Wins IROS 2026 Workshop Award and Places Second in IMU Challenge

Inha University’s SPARO lab received the IROS 2026 AI Meets Autonomy workshop Best Paper Award for a vision-language-model method that detects LiDAR–camera misalignment across different environments without additional training. Team SPARO also placed second among 131 teams in the IMU Odometry Challenge, estimating motion across vehicles, quadruped robots, drones and handheld devices with one learned model. The lab additionally presented radar localization, collaborative SLAM and underwater depth-completion research.

Gecko Robotics’ Navy contract ceiling expands by $300 million

Gecko Robotics’ Navy contract ceiling expands by $300 million

Gecko Robotics says the U.S. Navy and General Services Administration increased the ceiling value of its existing contract by $300 million, six months after an initial $71 million award. The expansion supports wider deployment of inspection robots, including Komodo, which scans through non-skid deck coatings to map corrosion and material thickness. Gecko says its technology can identify structural issues up to 50 times faster than traditional inspections; the article does not report actual shipments or spending.

Video-to-Sim-to-Real Pipeline Trains Apollo 2 for Cornhole

In an internal test, Google DeepMind researchers used Gemini 4 Argon to analyze a video of a person playing cornhole, build a MuJoCo simulation, and calculate physics and whole-body control for Apptronik’s Apollo 2 humanoid. The article says the robot then made seven consecutive shots in the real world. DeepMind describes the pipeline as reducing modeling work from weeks to a few hours.

퍼서비어런스, 자율주행으로 화성 탐사차 주행 거리 기록 경신

NASA의 퍼서비어런스 로버가 화성에서 총 28.10마일(45.22킬로미터)을 주행해 오퍼튜니티의 탐사차 주행 거리 기록을 넘어섰습니다. AutoNav 시스템은 주행의 약 90퍼센트를 담당하며, 로버에 탑재된 지형 지도를 활용해 안전한 경로를 찾습니다. FPGA가 장착된 보조 프로세서는 이미지 처리 속도를 높입니다. 팀은 위치 불확실성을 줄이기 위해 Mars Global Localization도 추가했으며, 목표 설정과 경로 검토는 계속해서 사람이 담당합니다.

Video Friday: Robot Decommissioning Takes a Fun Turn

The roundup highlights Workhorse, a system that learns contact-rich whole-body manipulation from human demonstrations without requiring a robot during demonstration. On a real Unitree G1, it sorts boxes using its hands and a kick, catches a thrown box, and topples and climbs a suitcase. The article also features MIT’s SANDO navigation system and a soft underwater robot with three swimming modes.
