Boston Dynamics and Toyota Research Partnership - IEEE Spectrum
Today, Boston Dynamics and the Toyota Research Institute (TRI) announced a new partnership “to accelerate the development of general-purpose humanoid robots utilizing TRI’s Large Behavior Models and Boston Dynamics’ Atlas robot.” Committing to working towards a general purpose robot may make this partnership sound like a every other commercial humanoid company right now, but that’s not at all that’s going on here: BD and TRI are talking about fundamental robotics research, focusing on hard problems, and (most importantly) sharing the results.

Toyota’s “Bubble-ized” Humanoid Grasps With Its Whole Body - IEEE Spectrum
When we think about robotic manipulation, the default is usually to think about grippers—about robots using manipulators (like fingers or other end effectors) to interact with objects. For most humans, though, interacting with objects can be a lot more complicated, and we use whatever body parts are convenient to help us deal with objects that are large or heavy or awkward. This somewhat constrained definition of robotic manipulation isn’t robotics’ fault, really. The word manipulation itself comes from the Latin for getting handsy with stuff, so there’s a millennium or two’s-worth of hand-related inertia behind the term. The Los Altos, Calif.–based Toyota Research Institute (TRI) is taking a more expansive view with their new humanoid, Punyo, which uses its soft body to help it manipulate objects that would otherwise be pretty much impossible to manage with grippers alone. “An anthropomorphic embodiment allows us to explore the complexities of social interactions like physical assistance, nonverbal communication, intent, predictability, and trust, to name just a few.” —Alex Alspach, Toyota Research Institute (TRI) Punyo started off as just a squishy gripper at TRI (http://punyo.tech/bubblegripper), but the idea was always to scale up to a big squishy humanoid, hence this concept art of a squishified T-HR3:
Toyota's latest humanoid robot aces operator mimicry - New Atlas
The T-HR3 has been built as a test platform for designing "friendly and helpful robots" that will work alongside humans, helping in the home, on building sites, working in disaster zones, in medical establishments and perhaps even making their way to outer space. Toyota has also introduces a management system that allows human operators to remotely control the third gen humanoid robot and have it mimic movements in real time. [...] Inline image New Atlas New Atlas Say hello to Toyota's latest humanoid robot, the T-HR3 Operator movement is tracked by 16 sensors in the Master Maneuvering System module and instructions sent wirelessly over to the T-HR3 to mimic in real time The T-HR3 stands 60 inches tall, weighs 165 lb and features 29 body parts The operator seated in the Master Maneuvering System module has hand, arm and foot movements mapped and sent to the T-HR3 humanoid robot Toyota says that the system caters for precision control of the T-HR3 robot in real time Force feedback from the T-HR3's 10-fingered hands ensures precise control of objects by the remote operator Systems are in place for maintaining balance, meaning the T-HR3 can quickly recover from collisions with objects and even perform Tai Chi [...] Toyota has unveiled an assistive robot test bed that builds on previous work undertaken by its Partner Robot wing, which examined specific robot limb joints and pre-programmed movements – including robots that played musical instruments. A human operator strapped into a remote maneuvering system and wearing a VR headset controls movement in real time, with the T-HR3 busting moves like performing Tai Chi and building Lego-like structures with precision.
Toyota Gets Back Into Humanoid Robots With New T-HR3 - IEEE Spectrum
Toyota has announced the T-HR3, a brand-new, third-generation humanoid robot. It’s 1.5-meter tall, weighs 75 kilograms, and has 32 degrees of torque-controlled freedom plus a pair of 10 fingered hands. At first glance, it appears to be very capable, with excellent balance and coordination, and Toyota has decided to approach autonomy by keeping a human in the loop inside of a sophisticated, immersive “Master Maneuvering System.”
Toyota’s latest humanoid robot can mimic your movements | The Verge
Toyota has revealed its third generation humanoid robot, the T-HR3, which can be controlled and synchronized with the operator’s movements. The user wears data gloves and an HTC Vive VR headset that’s linked to cameras to show the robot’s perspective. T-HR3 stands 1.54 meters tall and weighs 75kg ( 5 feet, 1 inches / 165 pounds) and was developed to explore the possibility of assisting humans in the home, medical facilities, construction sites, disaster areas, and even in space, Toyota says.
