At Kingwood Middle School and Kingwood High School, students are getting a more hands-on learning experience with building ...

Google DeepMind and Intrinsic developed AI that uses graph neural networks and reinforcement learning to automate multi-robot ...

As workplace robots become more common in retail stores, hospitals, and warehouses, their human coworkers need to know how to use and reprogram them. Yet most people lack that kind of highly technical ...

Researchers have developed a smartphone app that allows a user to easily program any robot to perform a task, dramatically bringing down the costs of building and programming mobile robots.

The robot can understand natural language commands, remember what it learned, and reuse instructions for similar tasks down the line.

Yet no robot can. It takes too much knowledge about that one kitchen—and too much common sense and flexibility and resourcefulness—for robot programming to capture.

The study will require participants to program a robot arm to complete different tasks (no prior experience with technology, robots, or programming is required). The study may take up to 150 minutes.
