Descartes.

This right here is a picture of René Descartes

Now, Monaco took Descartes, and just flipped him around.

Descartes died at what, this is only at 54 years old.

All right, let's keep converting Cartesian functions to polar coordinates.

It goes back to the Skeptics and up through Descartes.

Descartes said we need an entire new way of thinking.

This is a robot, Autom.

ADAMS The robot lied.

Descartes famously said, I think, therefore I am.

When we say I, as when Rene Descartes said,

So this robot is actually being commanded remotely by Frank, but the robot can also figure out where to go on its own.

So a person that's interacting with the robot understands where it's going to reach and isn't surprised by its motions.

So here's what it looks like when the robot this is what the robot's path looks like, those three examples.

Here is the actual robot.

What they care about is the robot.

The Terminator, a robot killing machine.

RB And the robot's reacting appropriately.

RB Now, here they're asked to prohibit the robot, and this first woman really pushes the robot into an emotional corner.

Now, here they're asked to prohibit the robot, and this first woman really pushes the robot into an emotional corner.

So what we're doing is asking the surgeon to perform the task, and we record the motions of the robot.

A robot that flies like a bird

Without GPS.

These are not the only interesting robots.

let the robot stand up comedy begin.

The robot's being totally autonomous.

The first practical result was that robot of mine...

And he brings the watch center, into the robot's field of vision, points to it, gives it a motion cue, and the robot looks at the watch quite successfully.

2, 3, 4 and 5 and he says 'Well anything i can associate

Descartes may have made a lot of mistakes, but he was right about this.

And then finally, if you spin opposite pairs of rotors faster than the other pair, then the robot yaws about the vertical axis.

In 2005, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) developed the world's second walking humanoid robot, HUBO.

We got a bunch of naive subjects in, we didn't tell them anything about the robot, sat them down in front of the robot and said, talk to the robot.

Right, so, let the robot stand up comedy begin.

So here R is the characteristic length of the robot.

So here, R is the characteristic length of the robot.

So this robot minimizes snap.

It also tells the robot where these obstacles are.

Here is my depiction of a robot.

Why does the robot have to be creative?

We'll try another one.

Okay, so it's doing local navigation there.

Yeah. Okay.

Here we've got naive subjects praising the robot

You were with the robot last night?
