Trends in Robotics (10 min)
Recently, we have witnessed significant advances in mobile robotics, including humanoid robots. Although current demand is concentrated in the advertising and entertainment industries, mobile robots are expected to play an increasingly important role in defense and manufacturing. A key factor behind this trend is the development of artificial intelligence trained through reward-and-punishment mechanisms in simulated environments, whose realism has reached a level that allows models to acquire years of experience within just a few days.
