Robotix Pulse - July Week 2
š„Here are this week's Robotics Engineering Jobs.
We listed ~230 new robotics jobs (including 85 Robotics Engineering, Director, and manager jobs by Nvidia), divided into U.S. & International spreadsheets.
š Robotix Research Vault: every week, I'll sift through the latest robotics research and share the few papers that are actually worth your attention.
1. š„ In Vivo Feasibility Study of Humanoid Robots in Surgery
Can today's humanoid robots perform surgical tasks? This paper evaluates humanoid robots in laparoscopic surgery through benchtop testing, user studies, and in vivo porcine experiments, providing one of the first evidence-based assessments of their readiness for surgical applications.
š Paper: http://arxiv.org/abs/2607.07972v1
2. š¦æ HumoSlope: Humanoid Locomotion on Steep Outdoor Slopes
Researchers introduce a physics-guided framework that enables humanoid robots to traverse outdoor slopes up to 32Ā° without external sensing. The work combines biomechanics-inspired rewards with terrain-aware balance control to achieve robust real-world locomotion.
š Paper: http://arxiv.org/abs/2607.07830v1
3. š Time-to-Collision Obstacle Avoidance Using Foundation Models
This approach leverages pretrained vision models for depth estimation and combines them with interpretable time-to-collision reasoning for dynamic obstacle avoidance. Notably, it achieves strong performance without requiring robot-specific training data, highlighting the growing role of foundation models in autonomy.
