In an upcoming ICRA paper, roboticists from MIT describe how they have taught a quadruped to dribble a soccer ball across rough terrain, which is actually really impressive for anyone who has tried to do this themselves. Margolis, and Pulkit Agrawal from MIT, will be presented at ICRA 2023 in London.

The BMW iX demo will use generation one, [which] contains nickel and cobalt. Now we are working with BMW towards a full demo pack in a vehicle, basically the next evolution of the Tesla range demo we did in January. In 2023, we expect to maximize manganese, reduce nickel and eliminate cobalt. So, that’s our next big milestone.
