Josie Hughes, an assistant professor at EPFL, has developed a robot capable of harvesting raspberries. This robot learns by interacting with a 'physical twin' that provides force feedback, allowing for more precise manipulation. Hughes's research at the CREATE Lab focuses on designing robots that leverage their physical properties and environmental interactions for tasks like manipulation and automation. AI
IMPACT Demonstrates a new method for robots to learn complex manipulation tasks through physical interaction and feedback.
RANK_REASON The cluster describes research and development of a robot with a novel learning approach.
