- Wrapped up several of @srushnlp.bsky.social's puzzles over recent weekends. RASPy (and the original RASP language) was particularly elegant.
- Reposted by Viswanath (Vish) SivakumarWe're hiring! Join Meta Reality Lab's EMG Wristband foundational research team! ⚡️ We're seeking research scientists with systems neuro/ML/AI/BCI/EE backgrounds, with skills on a spectrum from modeling to experimental expertise, as well as generalists who excel in both areas.
- We published a brief white paper about surface EMG as a technology and its potential as a new and powerful human-computer input paradigm. www.meta.com/blog/quest/s...

- Live demos are hard, letting anyone try out the demo is harder. Hardware makes all of this doubly so. Thank you to everyone who dropped by our posters, engaged in discussions, and tried out the surface EMG demo. We were humbled by the interest! #NeurIPS2024
- Reposted by Viswanath (Vish) SivakumarNew 716 hour EMG dataset just dropped ✨ ai.meta.com/blog/open-so...
- 1/ We just open-sourced two large wrist electromyography (EMG) datasets - one towards typing without a keyboard and the other for predicting hand poses - with baselines. We believe these will help advance research into making high bandwidth non-invasive neuromotor interfaces a reality!
- 2/ The papers - emg2qwerty and emg2pose - are accepted at NeurIPS 2024 Datasets and Benchmarks Track. If you’re in Vancouver next week, drop by our posters on Fri Dec 13 at 11am PST or at the Meta booth. We have some cool demos to show too! neurips.cc/virtual/2024... nips.cc/virtual/2024...
