Conventional production robots are very expensive in programming, unable to cope with even the slightest deviations in the environment, and are just so dangerous that they have to be fenced off from people with bars.
The Baxter robot developed by the American company Rethink Robotics is very different from its predecessors.
You can train him in a few minutes, just like a worker, how to recognize new objects and perform new tasks. To teach Baxter to recognize, simply hold the object in front of his video cameras located in the head, chest, and at the ends of both hands. At the same time, if the object turns upside down in the process of work, the robot will still recognize it.
To program an action, simply take Baxter by the hand and show the required movements. At the same time, it is necessary to choose the required actions with the help of a pair of switches located on the wrists of the robot.
When you move the hands of the robot, they feel light as a feather. Motors compensate for all efforts in response to your touch, which allows, for example, to easily carry heavy loads through the air.
The price of such a robot will be $ 22,000.
