This is a follow-up to the previous <a target="_blank">concept video</a> demonstrating the functional vision for AUR. The robot uses a cognitive architecture capable of anticipatory perceptual simulation, and can - with practice - predict the user's movements and commands and move in an anticipatory fashion to enhance efficiency and fluency in the interaction. <a href="http://web.media.mit.edu/~guy/publications/HoffmanAAAI08.pdf" target="_blank">Read</a> or <a target="_blank">watch</a> more about this research. </p> 126
