Here we go: @rosorg #ROS2 on a new shiny @Apple M1 Silicon (osx-arm64) thanks to @RoboStack and @condaforge. Still not quite ready for the public (some issues in the installation process), but we are nearly there! Stay tuned and follow @RoboStack to get updates.

Incredibly happy that our @RoboStack paper has been accepted to the @ieeeras Robotics & Automation Magazine 🥳. @RoboStack brings together #ROS @rosorg with @condaforge and @ProjectJupyter. Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2104.12910. Find out some key benefits in this 🧵: 1/n

New research out on #spiking #neuralnetworks (SNNs) for place recognition: arxiv.org/abs/2109.06452 - by @Somayeh_HS with @maththrills. SNNs offer compelling advantages, including #energyefficiency and low #latencies, inspired by how our #brain processes information. 1/2

Excited to share our new work on "Predicting Secondary Task Performance for Cognitive Overload Detection" - Early access: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/95429… Led by @PVAmadori we explored task performance in a dual-task decision-making driving scenario, aiming for safer shared-control. 1/n

Very excited to be selected as a participant in this year's Fresh Science workshop. We'll learn about #science #communication in two full-day events with media training, meet&greet with businesses and a presentation at a local pub. Looking forward to meet the other participants! twitter.com/EconnectTeam/s…

Our second #IROS2021 paper is on #probabilistic topometric #localization tightly coupled with visual #placerecognition and new-place awareness. This awareness enables localization with significant route deviations between reference and query traverses. arxiv.org/abs/2107.07707 1/3

I was very fortunate to be involved in two accepted #IROS2021 papers :). One of them tackles #TeachAndRepeat, an important #robotics problem, with a bio-inspired approach, leading to a very efficient approach suitable for #lowcost robots. Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2010.11326 1/3
