Ape Bot
Inspired by great apes, created by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) at NASA for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Robotics Challenge:
“This groundbreaking RoboSimian uses deliberate and stable operations to complete challenging tasks under supervised tele-operation while in a degraded human environment.
This emphasis on stability over dynamics and deliberation over reaction will result in faster and more robust overall operations by decreasing missteps for both robot and human operator” (JPL)
