Sept 26 - Physical AI Workshop and Meetup
Sat, Sep 26, 11:30 AMJoin us at MotionLab.Berlin on September 26 for the Berlin Physical AI Workshop and Meetup, co-presented by Nebius and Voxel51. Seats are limited, **[Pre-registration is mandatory.](https://voxel51.com/events/berlin-physical-ai-workshop-and-meetup-september-26-2026)** **Date, Time and Location** Sep 26, 2026 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM CEST MotionLab.Berlin, Bouchéstraße 12/Halle 20, 12435 Berlin **Meetup Agenda** *5:30–6:30 PM* * Networking, food, drinks, and lightning talks **Workshop Agenda** This hands-on session uses DROID, a real-world robotics dataset loaded into FiftyOne as a native multimodal MCAP recording, and YOLO11n, fine-tuned live during the session. *6:30–7:30 PM* * Welcome + framing: from raw robot logs to a trained detector * Explore a real DROID robotics recording in FiftyOne's native multimodal MCAP viewer: camera, proprioception, and language on one synced timeline, no ROS install required * Curate: extract and browse frames from the recording, filter and deduplicate * Compute embeddings on the curated frames; explore via similarity search and embeddings visualization (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs) *7:30–8:00 PM* * Auto-label: open-vocabulary detection to generate bounding boxes for the robot gripper and target objects * Train: fine-tune a YOLO11n detector on the auto-labeled frames (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs) * Evaluate results and close the loop: view predictions back on the original MCAP timeline *8:00–8:30 PM* * What else Nebius offers: Token Factory walkthrough — chat/vision models, fine-tuning, credits
LessWrong Community Weekend 2026
Fri, Sep 11, 10:00 AMJoin one large rationalist social gathering, which brings together 250+ aspiring rationalists from across Europe and beyond for 4 days of socializing, fun, and intellectual exploration. **Full Info & Applications:** [https://www.lesswrong.com/events/iqkaNDmhqpoZWNpXs/lesswrong-community-weekend-2026](https://www.lesswrong.com/events/iqkaNDmhqpoZWNpXs/lesswrong-community-weekend-2026) The whole event **will be participant-driven** in an unconference style: shortly before, and any time during, the weekend, a digital event schedule is filled with 100+ workshops, talks and activities by the attendees. The community weekend is family & LGBTQIA+-friendly, and after last year's amazing experience, we are increasing our effort into creating a diverse event where people of all ages, genders, backgrounds, and experiences feel like they are at home. We invite everyone who shares a **curiosity** for new perspectives to gain a truthful understanding of the world and its inhabitants, a **passion** for developing practices and systems that achieve our personal goals and, consequently, those of humanity at large, as well as a desire to nurture **empathetic relationships** that support and inspire us on our journey. **Price:** Regular ticket: €225\-275 \| Supporter ticket: €300/400/500\+ (The ticket includes accommodation from Friday to Monday, meals, and snacks.) Nobody makes any money from this event, and the organizer team is unpaid. This event has a special place in our heart, and we truly think there’s nothing else quite like it. It’s where so many of us made friends with whom we have more in common than each of us would’ve thought to be possible. It’s where new ideas have altered our opinions or even changed the course of life - in the best possible way. **Note:** You need to apply and be accepted via the application form. RSVPs are appreciated but don't count towards your participation.
Sept 25 - Berlin Physical AI, ML, and Computer Vision Meetup
Fri, Sep 25, 3:30 PMJoin our in-person meetup to hear talks from experts on cutting-edge topics across AI, ML, and computer vision. **Date, Time and Location** Sep 25, 2026 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM CEST w3.hub, Möckernstraße 120, 10963 Berlin, Germany **One Pipeline, Any Device: Swap the Reader, Not the Pipeline** Every new robot, camera, or sensor vendor in physical AI usually means rebuilding the data pipeline from scratch, even though the features you actually need, a calibrated frame, a fused object distance, stay the same. This talk demos mloda, an open-source Python framework where a feature pipeline is written once, and only the reader plugin, the small piece that knows how to read one specific device's raw format, ever changes. Live, using two small synthetic datasets shaped like two different devices' raw output (no hardware involved), I run the same pipeline against both, swapping only the reader plugin, and show the calibration, fusion, and feature extraction steps running unmodified on either. I also show OpenTelemetry lineage tracing, so when a feature looks wrong, you can trace it straight back to the raw reading that produced it, regardless of which device it came from. The point: stop rebuilding your data pipeline for every new device, reuse it. *About the Speaker* [Tom Kaltofen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tomkaltofen/) is a Berlin-based data and AI engineer and the creator of mloda, an open-source (Apache-2.0) Python framework for declarative, plugin-based data access in AI workflows. **Toward the best ROI: choosing algorithms for AI-powered workstations** Robots are becoming smarter and more affordable—but which automation projects actually deliver a return on investment? Drawing on RemBrain’s real-world experience across delivery, retail, construction, and manufacturing, this presentation reveals why many promising robotics concepts fail to become viable products. It introduces a practical, skill-based approach to flexible automation and shows how compact AI-powered workstations can achieve payback in as little as 6–12 months. The talk also explores where Vision-Language-Action models create genuine value—and where simpler, proven technologies remain more effective. Honest, numbers-driven discussion with an algorithm focus. *About the Speaker* [Anton Maltsev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maltsevanton/) Started working with Computer Vision in 2010. From 2017 to 2022, I was Head of ML at Cherry Labs, which was acquired by Artisight. Now CSO at Rembrain. Building Real-World Computer Vision Systems This talk will explore practical workflows for building, evaluating, and improving modern computer vision systems. We'll dive into real-world approaches to dataset curation, model analysis, multimodal AI workflows, and production-ready vision pipelines using open-source technologies. The session is designed for engineers, researchers, and AI practitioners looking to better understand how teams are developing and scaling computer vision applications today. Expect practical demos, technical insights, and discussions around the evolving AI tooling ecosystem. *About the Speaker* [Dan Gural](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-gural/) leads technical partnerships at Voxel51, where he's building the Physical AI Workbench, a platform that connects real-world sensor data with realistic simulation to help engineers better understand, validate, and improve their perception systems.

Festival of Giant Kites at Tempelhofer Feld
Sat, Sep 12, 2:00 PM## What should you bring? To make ourselves comfortable during the day, please bring: * **A blanket** to sit on * **Something to drink** * And of course, if you want to: **your own kite 🪁** Bringing your own kite is absolutely optional. You are just as welcome to join us, watch the giant kites, and enjoy a relaxed day together. ## Where do we meet? 📍 **We will meet directly at the Google Maps pin that I will post.** And if you are wondering how to recognize me: Look for a **short guy with a moustache, a black hat with a red band, and a black jacket**. **That’s me. ^^** I will post the exact Google Maps pin before the meetup. ## What are we going to do? We will find a nice spot, put down our blankets, sit together, and fly our kites. If you feel like exploring, you are of course free to walk around the festival area, have a look at the giant kites, and visit the different stalls. The idea is simply to have a relaxed day together, enjoy the festival, chat, and hopefully get a few kites into the air.
