Robot, object, action!
Robotic demonstrators developed by European researchers produce compelling evidence that ‘thinking-by-doing’ is the machine cognition paradigm of the future. Robots act on objects and teach themselves in the process.

Robots ‘think’ with their hands
Action-centred cognition is a groundbreaking concept in robotics where robots learn to ‘think’ in terms of what actions they can perform on an object. This new trend in cognition theory opens exciting new vistas.
