And overall, the consistency between gate to gate helped to get it faster overall time, whereas the drone racers themselves might, the human racers, were able to get some faster segments.
They were able to sort of speed up and slow down at different points in order to, like, it would beat them out sort of like in a partial time.
But overall, the drone system was the fastest.
And the claim here, according to them, is that the first time an autonomous robot achieved champion-level performance in a real-world competitive sport.
I don't know what the chess people feel about that, dude.
I wonder what they feel.
Or the go people.
Yeah, the go people, right?
But that's the headline.
There's lots of nuance to it, too.
It's really interesting how they achieve this stuff.
I'm in favor of not hitting stuff.
This is the part we do in our own lab.
We do drone avoidance.
We'll have a drone and we'll throw a pendulum at it like 10 meters a second and we'll have to dodge it out of the way.
That's the kind of thing we'll do.
But one thing that's sort of underrated, the understated robotics thing that I point out,
is that all of this computation and sensing was onboard the drone.
And that is hard to do.
Because it's much easier to have a desktop computer off to the side.
