ACIN has developed a learning robot. If shown how to clean a sink, it can imitate human motions and adapt its knowledge flexibly to different situations. The measurement data is first statistically processed, and the results are used to train a neural network to learn predefined movement elements (so-called ‘motion primitives’).
