A robot prepared for self-awareness: Expanded software architecture for walking robot Hector

BY IT GROUP 7 IN No comments



A year ago, researchers showed that their software endowed the walking robot Hector with a simple form of consciousness. Their new research goes one step further: they have now developed a software architecture that could enable Hector to see himself as others see him. "With this, he would have reflexive consciousness," explains an expert. The architecture is based on artificial neural networks.
This article highlights the prevalence and power that software engineering endows us with. With continual research and software developments, this project yields much hope. This ultimately showcase the usefulness and applications of software engineering in even the most improbable of aspects of research and science.
