Details of Baby-bot update
|
Its name is BabyBot, is been born near the laboratories of robotics of the University of Genoa and is the tip of diamond of plan ADAPT financed from the European Commission in order to explore the technological frontiers of the artificial intelligence. BabyBot somiglia, for shape and dimensions, to a child of two years: it coordinates you from prof. the George Puts, the investigators of plan ADAPT want to discover the secrets of the autopercezione, the fascinating psicocognitivo process to the base of the auto-conscience.
"the sense of the presence", says Puts, "is our conscience practically": BabyBot will be the work bank in order to recreate artificially this "sense". The scientists engage to you in the initiative, in fact, believe are possible "to control very precise parameters in order to understand exactly as the perception of surrounding atmospheres happens", an ability that takes substance in the young human beings to leave from the first six months of age. 
"the robot will allow us to discover, through the settaggi, which is the details of the interactions between child and strangers, between child and objects, between child and parents", specific Put. All he is based on a mathematical model that considers the auto-conscience like an action process, cognition and perception: a child, second the detailed lists of model ADAPT, imagines that the objects in an atmosphere are not "real", but part of general a perceptive process.
Only after to have "touched" the object, they say the experts of ADAPT, the child succeeds to "oggettivarlo" in its physical context. To the same way, the objective of BabyBot is to allow the discovery of a mechanism of oggettivazione of the truth to use in engineering robotics. "It is the first step in order to understand and to face this problem", says Puts. And draft of a objective easy not to catch up itself: the first idea of the Babybot, "binoculars" of an other ambitious plan, iCub, laughed them to 1996.
For the moment, BabyBot is successful to analyze, to touch and to seize "physical objects" in the course of two experiments. In laboratory, BabyBot has been able to identify some simple objects and "to separate them" from the rest of the context. A small step, for human we, but an enormous leap in ahead for the study of the mechanisms of artificial intelligence. "the plan will have a remarkable impact and numerous practical applications, from the psycology to the development of new robots, in order to arrive to the atmosphere creation of virtual truth", conclude Put.
