Robot, know thyself: New vision-based system teaches machines to understand their bodies Neural Jacobian Fields, developed by MIT CSAIL researchers, can learn to control any robot from a single camera, without any other sensors
- New system enables robots to solve manipulation problems in seconds
A new system enables a robot to “think ahead” and consider thousands of potential motion plans simultaneously, allowing the robot to solve a multistep problem in a few seconds
- Soft robotic fish swims alongside real ones in coral reefs
“The robot is capable of close observations and interactions with marine life and appears to not be disturbing to real fish,” says Rus The project is part of a larger body of work at CSAIL focused on soft robots, which have the potential to be safer, sturdier, and more nimble than their hard-bodied counterparts
