# Frontier Hardware And Mobility

I note that more senses can only help: - touch - force - proprioception - audio.

I noted a casual observation about Bengaluru traffic and shared Elon Musk’s tweet that “Turns out the future does have flying cars,” linking to the original tweet. This reflects my curiosity about emerging transport solutions for the city.

I noted the Hardware‑First residency program announced on 2026‑10‑15, which offers fully funded living, design/PCB/firmware support, mentorship, and public visibility for a week‑long build sprint (Nov 1‑6) with a cohort of six builders.

I recognize that current robotics research over‑indexes vision‑only systems. To build robust manipulators, I will prioritize multimodal sensor suites—touch, force, proprioception, and audio—as essential for safe and adaptable interaction with the physical world.
