Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your friends at IEEE Spectrum robotics. We also post a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next few months. Please send us your events for inclusion.
ICRA 2025: 19–23 May 2025, ATLANTA, GA
Enjoy today’s videos!
At the FZI, it’s not just work for our robots, they join our festivities, too. Our shy robot Spot stumbled into this year’s FZI Winter Market …, a cheerful event for robots and humans alike. Will he find his place? We certainly hope so, because Feuerzangenbowle tastes much better after clinking glasses with your hot-oil-drinking friends.

There’s some thrilling action in this Christmas video from the PUT Mobile Robotics Laboratory, and the trick to put the lights on the tree is particularly clever. Enjoy!

Happy Holidays from Clearpath Robotics! Our workshop has been bustling lately with lots of exciting projects and integrations just in time for the holidays! The TurtleBot 4 elves helped load up the sleigh with plenty of presents to go around. Rudolph the Husky A300 made the trek through the snow so our Ridgeback friend with a manipulator arm and gripper could receive its gift.

Thanks, Rugilė!
In Santa’s shop, so bright and neat, A robot marched on metal feet. With tinsel arms and bolts so tight, It trimmed the tree all through the night. It hummed a carol, beeped with cheer, “Processing joy—it’s Christmas here!” But when it tried to dance with grace, It tangled lights around its face. “Error detected!” it spun around, Then tripped and tumbled to the ground. The elves all laughed, “You’ve done your part—A clumsy bot, but with a heart!” The ArtiMinds team would like to thank all partners and customers for an exciting 2024. We wish you and your families a Merry Christmas, joyful holidays and a Happy New Year – stay healthy.

Perhaps not technically a holiday video, until you consider how all that stuff you ordered online is actually getting to you.
