Huy Vector and HVT Lab created an AI-powered WALL-E inspired desk robot that can see through its camera, chat naturally, recognize objects, and respond to voice commands, using Adafruit Crickit and Bottango for servo-dri…
Google announced the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold, shipping August 20th, with prices starting at $899 for the 256GB Pixel 11, a $100 increase over last year. The phones feature a thinner…
Google's Pixel 11 Pro, announced at its Made by Google 2026 event, introduces a 120X zoom that uses AI-generated pixels to fill in details, building on the Pixel 7 Pro's 30X Super Res Zoom from 2022. The new Magic Captur…
Insta360 launched the X6 flagship 360 camera on August 12, 2026, featuring dual Sony 1/1.1-inch sensors, 8K video at 50fps, native Dolby Vision, and on-device AI editing via its PanoMind model. The X6, priced at $699.99 …
Insta360 launched the X6 8K 360 camera today at $669.99, featuring larger dual sensors, faster 8K recording, improved low-light performance, built-in storage, and AI-powered editing, with modes that let it function as an…
Honor has launched the Robot Phone, a smartphone with a robot arm on a gimbal that emerges from the camera socket, featuring a 200MP main camera, 200MP telephoto, and 50MP ultra-wide camera, and is positioned as an 'AI c…
A new crowdfunded clothing brand called noRecognition, founded by former chief intelligence officer Bill Swearingen, claims its garments feature patterns that can scramble 11 computer vision models, based on 31.7 million…
Rockwell Automation announced on August 11 an API-enabled integration between its Plex Quality Management System (QMS) and FactoryTalk Analytics VisionAI, bringing AI-based visual inspection results into quality-manageme…
Fei-Fei Li and the World Labs team propose a functional taxonomy of world models, dividing them into renderers, simulators, and planners, all connected by the reinforcement learning loop of the partially observable Marko…
Xiaomi Inc.'s MiLM Plus team released PROVE, a perception-aligned evaluation framework for object removal, at ACM MM 2026, featuring two metrics—RC-S for spatial coherence and RC-T for temporal consistency—and a real-wor…
TRACE-GS, a new framework from arXiv (paper 2608.10286v1), performs on-policy trajectory distillation with privileged geometric conditioning to improve sparse-view 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) restoration. It uses a teac…
Researchers propose SeFaR, a framework for semantic-feature-centric testing of deep neural networks, which uses diffusion and vision-language models to generate photorealistic perturbations and identify failure-inducing …
A new study finds that JPEG2000 compression at a 20:1 ratio preserves the quality of 3D brain MRI generative models, with synthesis quality statistically equivalent to uncompressed training (mean PSNR 27.3 dB vs. 27.0 dB…
Researchers introduce Space Tokens, a lightweight, architecture-agnostic framework that equips vision-language models (VLMs) with explicit continuous spatial representations without additional inference-time modules, imp…
Researchers proposed SSRL-MAR, a motion artifact-aware self-supervised representation learning framework for 3D brain MRI motion artifact reduction that requires no paired training data or motion labels. On the in-silico…
Researchers propose ENCORE (Efficient Noise COntext-aware REpresentation), a deep learning framework for low-dose CT denoising that explicitly models non-stationary, spatially correlated CT noise beyond the Gaussian appr…
Researchers propose CasDeblurGS, a cascaded framework that reconstructs a coherent 3D scene from only two motion-blurred images with known intrinsics, without input-view poses, auxiliary sharp images, or per-scene test-t…
Researchers introduced 4D-WAM, a world-action model that uses geometric foundation models during training to enforce 4D consistency in predicted driving scenes, improving trajectory planning. The model achieved state-of-…
NVIDIA and academic collaborators introduced TAR (Traffic Anomaly Reasoning) and TAR-Bench, datasets with 44,040 chain-of-thought training annotations across 10 tasks for 3,670 CCTV videos (~26 hours) from eight public d…
In 2026, artificial intelligence is transforming audiovisual post-production by automating scene detection, editing, color grading, and VFX, saving production companies 4 to 8 hours per project. Tools like DaVinci Resolv…
