In this free online course, learn what you need to develop a 'thinking' robot with its own artificial neural network. At the beginning of robotics, industrial robots were used to aid in mass production. Then they were engineered to perform tasks requiring either high precision or high force transmission. Today, a new kind of robot is emerging: one that does not need to meet the demand for high precision or high power but for the understanding of the human mind and our needs.
