'Soft' robotic hand runs on air pressure and AI
We've seen examples of robots mimicking humans, but now we're seeing robots that can autonomously teach themselves how to handle objects. Festo has developed a flexible robotic hand that uses artificial intelligence to deduce how to manipulate an item with its fingers. Such self-learning technology should prove vital towards building robots that can learn to execute tasks by themselves in the workplace, at home and pretty much anywhere.
