first one in the books. thank you @ishank20 @manishdiesel for trusting us with it.
the next room is going to be even crazier 🔥
This is what Bengaluru’s physical AI scene looks like in one room.
Last Saturday, 30+ researchers and engineers joined us to work through one question: why does egocentric hand tracking break in the wild?
They challenged each other’s assumptions, disagreed openly and took the problem further together than any one of them could have alone.
We’re building more rooms like this, where top minds in physical AI share their work, debate open problems and build together.

final call. last few spots left.
btw the venue is the prettiest office on 110ft road. 5th floor. come see for yourself.
We’re hosting a closed-door research session in Bengaluru this Saturday, with researchers from India’s top labs working on hand pose, egocentric vision and robot learning.
The core question: Why does egocentric hand tracking break in the wild?
Over the evening, we’ll:
- Map where hand tracking fails using real cases
- Check whether today’s benchmarks measure what robots actually need
- Share how we’re approaching it, and learn together
The session will be moderated and led by our Lead Researcher Sandeep Reddy Sabbella, PhD.
What the room figures out shapes our next round of egocentric data.
Sat, 24th Oct. Indiranagar.
Limited to 30 researchers.

saturday's research sesh w @humynlabs: researchers from adobe, samsung r&d and iisc, and a former CTO who built robots for astronauts 👀
diving into all things egocentric data and hand tracking.
building something interesting in the space?

Our research sesh this Saturday is led by Dr. Sandeep, head researcher at @humynlabs. A closed-door room on why egocentric hand data breaks outside the lab.
In his PhD at Sapienza, field data was so scarce his team built a vineyard in VR.

it’s happening this sat!
getting 30 researchers together w @humynlabs to talk about why hand tracking still breaks outside the lab.
the team will share how they’re tackling it, and we’ll figure out what’s missing together.

bangalore, you're crazy.
we're hosting this on 17th oct, saturday.
we'll spend an evening exploring real swatches, block printing w indigo, and focused research hours to go down the historic rabbit hole.
think: a farmers’ revolt before champaran, a bengal crop in your jeans, why its name means “from india”, and whether india still grows it at all.
leading the sesh:
- mamatha, textile eng & assoc. prof, pearl academy
- vaishnavi, curator & asst. prof, pearl academy. ex-MAP
go down the rabbit hole w us.
dyeing to know
indigo edition🪻
thinking of hosting a nerdy evening in bangalore around a dye and textile.
hint: it's also a crop. farmers revolted over it, an empire got rich off it, and a lab in germany killed the trade.
you'll be in pairs, going down a rabbit hole together and debating your findings over food.
would you be game?
