MIT develops multimodal technique to train robots
Listen to this article Researchers filmed multiple instances of a robot arm feeding a dog. The videos were included in datasets to train the robot. | Credit: MIT Training a general-purpose robot remains a major challenge. Typically, engineers collect data that are specific to a certain robot and task, which they use to train the robot in a controlled environment. However, gathering these data is costly and time-consuming, and the robot will likely struggle to
