The project
Alpaflow is currently researching how to “push the envelope” on some hard problems in robotics: how to build a world model with cheap 2D cameras, how to control a lot of low-degree-of-freedom end effectors, how to manage end-to-end differentiable control loops… ?
We are researching in the textile industry for the moment, and sewing automation is on the radar!
