A Halodi Robotics' perception engineer with a humanoid collaborative robot used for security guarding in human environments (e.g., offices). A perception engineer uses the latest cutting-edge developments in computer vision and machine learning to allow the robot to understand its environment for navigation, manipulation, human-robot interaction, and other useful tasks. The Halodi Robotics platform allows robotics researchers to be focused on developing new algorithms and solutions without having to build a platform first. The close-to-direct drive transmission technology in the robot allows for easy interactions with the real world using Direct Force Control. The robot has been designed from the ground up to facilitate the lowest simulation gap possible to ease machine learning development, testing and deployment. A Unity™ simulation environment enables next-generation robotic simulation, taking advantage of tools previously not available to roboticists.

Satellite image of Japan in May 2003. The islands of Japan are shown clearly off the coast of North and South Korea, China, and Russia in this true-color image. Running down through the islands are a string of mountains that make up part of the Pacific "Ring of Fire." The Ring of Fire is a zone of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that stretches in a series of arcs from New Zealand, through Indonesia, up through the Philippines, Japan, the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka Peninsula (Russia), across the Pacific Ocean via the Aleutian Islands, and down the coast of the Americas. Seventy-five percent of the world's volcanoes are in this ring, making it the most volcanically-active region on the planet. Also shown in this image are a number of fires, which are marked with red dots. A few fires were detected in Japan, China, and North Korea, but the majority were detected in Russia's Primorskiy-Kray region. This true-color Aqua MODIS image was acquired on May 1, 2003.
