Tech expert Kurt “CyberGuy' Knutsson discusses how Stanford’s HumanPlus robot learns tasks by watching humans.
Researchers at Stanford University have created an innovative humanoid robot called 'HumanPlus' that can learn and perform a wide range of tasks by observing human actions. This breakthrough in robotics brings us one step closer to developing truly versatile and adaptable machines.
Learning through observation HumanPlus utilizes a single RGB camera and a whole-body policy to clone human motion in real time. The robot can learn various activities, including boxing, playing the piano, ping-pong, tossing objects and typing. The system requires approximately 40 hours of human movement data to learn a task and then reproduce it step by step.
Cost considerations While HumanPlus represents a significant advancement in humanoid robotics, it comes with a substantial price tag. The researchers estimate the cost of building a working model at approximately $107,945. However, given its versatility, it may still be one of the more cost-effective options currently available on the market. Open-source design One of the most notable aspects of HumanPlus is its open-source design.
