What sets this approach apart is the training method. Instead of painstakingly programming each movement, the robot learned by watching hundreds of videos recorded from wrist-mounted cameras on da ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Robots have now mastered one of the most complex of human mannerisms - lip motions, in a technological breakthrough. With almost ...

Robots can be finicky learners. Historically, they've required precise, step-by-step directions to complete basic tasks, and tend to call it quits when things go off-script, like after dropping a tool ...

The researchers detailed their findings in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. "Like humans learning to dance by ...

Researchers at Columbia Engineering have trained a human-like robot named Emo to lip-sync speech and songs by studying online videos, showing how machines can now learn complex human behaviour simply ...

In context: Teaching robots new skills has traditionally been slow and painstaking, requiring hours of step-by-step demonstrations for even the simplest tasks. If a robot encountered something ...

What just happened? In a significant leap forward in medical technology, researchers have developed autonomous surgical robots. However, there are many issues that need to be addressed before these ...

A robot observes its reflection in a mirror, learning its own morphology and kinematics for autonomous self-simulation. The process highlights the intersection of vision-based learning and robotics, ...

(Nanowerk News) By watching their own motions with a camera, robots can teach themselves about the structure of their own bodies and how they move, a new study from researchers at Columbia Engineering ...
