Our colleagues at the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems at EPFL just sent us a fun video of Santa riding a fixed-wing robot and loosing a present. Luckily, the present can autonomously find its way to its destination.

Our colleagues at the LSRO at Switzerland’s EPFL have sent a great video of their robot Thymio converted into a sushi-go-round for their XMas party:

Colleagues at the AI Lab’s Robotics and Perception Group also sent a video:

Imina Technologies brings us a choir of miBot micromanipulators.

Previously featured on Robohub, General Motors and Kiva Systems feature high-tech robots pretending to be “Santa’s little helpers”.

While the industrial robots work away, Nao has been busy with his xylophone and well wishes.
