Recorded simulation
How can a robot learn how gently to grip?
Compare a fixed grip with the learned controller on the same virtual tissue.
Recorded outputs, replayed in your browser. No new simulation is running.
What this enables
Learn a grip that adapts to unfamiliar materials.
Demonstrated in simulation. No real tissue or clinical validation.
Read the task
Train a gripper on different virtual tissues, then test it on unfamiliar materials.

Reveal the plume and its true source behind the sensor readings.
Recorded outputs, replayed in your browser. No new simulation is running.
What this enables
Test source estimates against the known simulated leak.
The featured case exposes a localization failure.
Read the task

What can wall sensors miss inside a reactor?
Watch the internal temperature change as the reactor develops a fault.
Recorded outputs, replayed in your browser. No new simulation is running.
What this enables
Create training data for future warning and control models.
Data generation demonstrated. Learned sensing and control remain pending.
Read the task
Vary reactor faults and pair wall-sensor readings with the hidden conditions inside.
Edited demonstration briefRecorded simulation
Can turning a turbine help the whole farm?
Choose a recorded wind condition. Compare the model's prediction with the power computed by the physics solver.
Recorded outputs, replayed in your browser. No new simulation is running.
What this enables
Test model-selected turbine settings against the physics.
Some settings improve simulated output; others reduce it. No operating-farm control validation.
Read the task
Simulate a wind farm under changing wind and turbine settings. Train a model to predict power, use it to choose how the turbines should turn, then check those choices in the physics solver.

Can radar tell a drone from a bird?
Compare recorded drone and bird signals, and follow the classifier's changing assessment.
Recorded outputs, replayed in your browser. No new simulation is running.
What this enables
Train radar perception from simulated signals.
Synthetic tests only. Simplified bird motion makes recognition easier; no real-target validation.
Read the task
Simulate radar echoes from drones and birds as their blades and wings move. Train a model to distinguish them, then test its predictions on separate synthetic examples with noise and clutter.
