While we ’re impressed by the technology behind military robots , it can be depressing when you realise that they ’re in reality being produced to maim and kill . This paintball robot " Gepetto " gets free of such guilt feelings . And , as you ’ll see this video , it ’s a mint funnier when a robot bend on its master to cause restrained levels of pain rather than death . Hit the video at 1:15 to watch a adult human beings curl up up like a sissy as his children laugh in the background .
Then , to watch the same robot train for Wiimote restraint , hit the jump .
In this second clip , Gepetto is disarmed and civilise for Wiimote reply , getting " rewarded " for proper movements and " punish " for improper movements . It ’s a technical piece , but you may pass over to 4:20 for the demo . You ’ll notice that the " to the full trained " Gepetto is still only responding with about 20 % accuracy … so it look like a ambition of Wiimote steering with precision intent is just a dream .
All in all , it ’s a neat ongoing robot project . slay the link for a full list of technical details and updates . [ trossenroboticsviatechnabob ]
