Boston Dynamics와의 협업으로 Gemini Robotics-ER 1.6이 공개되었고, Spot 같은 로봇이 복잡한 산업용 계측기를 자율적으로 읽을 수 있게 됐다는 내용이다. 물리 세계를 이해하고 유용하게 작동하는 로봇 AI로의 중요한 진전으로 보인다.

CHICAGO–This is one of my favorite cities in the U.S., but it doesn’t show up in my work travel as often as I’d like. So I’m delighted that the Online News Association decided to move its annual conference from late summer to early spring and then stage this year’s event here–in a hotel that should be familiar to everybody who’s seen The Fugitive.

Patreon readers got a bonus post that I’d meant to have written weeks earlier: a recap of MWC Barcelona in which I also gave away a global eSIM to the first reader to ask for it.

3/24/2026: The most innovative robotics and engineering companies of 2026, Fast Company

This list, the product of months of research and editorial back-and-forth, finally emerged online this week. And then we had to run a quick correction after one of the companies honored said that we’d mentioned an achievement that they did not want disclosed.

3/25/2026: Delivery Robots Have a Mapping Problem, PCMag

I sat down in a hotel lobby in Austin during SXSW with MJ Burk Chun, co-founder and vice president of product and design at Serve Robotics, to talk about the issues that company is working to address as it tries to scale up having four-wheeled robots cart food deliveries to customers.

3/27/2026: Google Ships Latest Android 17 Beta. Here’s What’s New, PCMag

In between having so many longer stories to write, I was happy to get one that I could bang out in an hour or so.

3/28/2026: United’s New Upgrades Aim to Keep You Online and Fully Charged at 35,000 Feet, PCMag

My week started with me flying to another one of United’s hubs–with the airline covering my airfare and lodging–for its United Elevated event at LAX. In addition to looping me into UA’s ambitions for its onboard product, this event doubled as a reunion with some of the avgeek journalists I met at Cranky Dorkfest in September and with my former Washington Post colleague Lori Aratani, who interviewed United CEO Scott Kirby onstage Tuesday morning.

3/29/2026: Pints meet prop bets: Polymarket’s “Situation Room” pop-up bar in DC, Ars Technica

I thought I saw an opportunity to write for this occasional client for the first time since the summer of 2023; fortunately, my editor then and now agreed.

«Кожаные» охранники, подвиньтесь: Робопсы Spot вышли на патрулирование!

Безработица добралась и до четвероногих. Теперь десятки гектаров дата-центров охраняют не овчарки, а роботы от Boston Dynamics.

✅ Тепловизоры и обзор на 360° не оставят шанса ни одному злоумышленнику.

✅ Слышит подозрительные шумы и ультразвук там, где человек и собака бессильны.

✅ Никакого сна, еды.

✅ Робопёс не просит прибавки к зарплате и всегда на посту в режиме 24/7.
