Artificial intelligent design
 Students in Assistant Professor of Computer Science Chad
Jenkins' "Building Intelligent Robots" course wrapped up the fall semester with
a demonstration of their projects - autonomous robotics built using Lego
Mindstorm kits. During the course, students built articulated robots and
programmed them to perform a variety of tasks.
Jenkins has said that his own research aims to leverage abilities
demonstrated by humans in the real world to control robots and virtual
characters. His approach involves addressing two major questions: How can human
motion be collected in natural situations without instrumentation? And how can
mechanisms for robot control be learned from human demonstration and motion?
The
demonstration took place on December 7 in the third-floor atrium of the CIT
Building.
