Come dance along to the beats of our lab’s sophisticated robot dogs as they groove to one of the most influential bands in grunge rock- Nirvana. The robots leverage Artificial Intelligence to emulate the behaviors of canine friends. They respond to commands in the same way a real dog would and mimic the motion mechanics of a real dog. Apart from the typical dog behaviors, the robots can store and process information more efficiently and produce it in a human readable form when compared to regular dogs. The research aims to explore new avenues in the world of human-machine interactions.
