BOSTON (Dunya News) – RoboRaise, robot of MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL), perfectly performed the viral bottle cap challenge.

RoboRaise, who doesn’t have feet and can’t perform a 360-degree kick, took cues from MIT’s Joseph DelPreto and completed the challenge.

“The project builds off [an] existing system that allows users to instantly correct robot mistakes with brainwaves and hand gestures, now enabling continuous motion in a more collaborative way. “We aim to develop human-robot interaction where the robot adapts to the human, rather than the other way around. This way the robot becomes an intelligent tool for physical work,” says MIT Professor and CSAIL Director Daniela Rus.
