http://www.gizmag.com Autonomous helicopters offer a highly maneuverable and versatile platform in scenarios like disaster relief operations, but programming these machines to perform complex aerobatics is a formidable challenge - unless of course they teach themselves. This example developed by Stanford computer scientists does just that, learning to fly by watching other RC helicopters in the air. Not only does this artificial intelligence system produce a spectacular flying exhibition, it's seen as an important demonstration of robotic learning through observation.en gizmag.com http://www.gizmag.com/robotic-helicopter-teaches-itself-how-to-fly-aerobatics/11621/#comment-11503 http://www.gizmag.com/robotic-helicopter-teaches-itself-how-to-fly-aerobatics/11621/#comment-11503 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 12:55:54 -0600
