Giving robots 3D vision without depth sensors

From the source: Lambda Blog

Giving robots better 3D perception Robots are becoming increasingly capable of learning manipulation skills directly from images. Most robot policies still rely on monocular cameras, though, which struggle to estimate depth accurately. That makes precise tasks such as grasping objects in cluttered environments, inserting parts, or manipulating complex geometry hard to pull off.

From structures to dynamics: scaling AI for molecular dynamics in drug discovery

Why molecular dynamics matters for drug discovery Molecular dynamics (MD) is an important tool in modern drug discovery. While structure prediction and molecular docking can show how a potential drug might fit into a protein, they provide only a snapshot. Molecules are constantly moving. MD simulations allow researchers to see how a drug and its target behave over time: whether the interaction…
