AI.js: Robots with Brains!

on YouTube ↗23m

" summary

A working Node.js robotics stack appears with a concrete claim: JavaScript can run forward and inverse kinematics on a serial manipulator using a small linear algebra library Vector linear algebra module. The demo shows joint angles mapped to end effector positions and a live inverse kinematics dance with a webcam backup, using cheap servos and $50 hardware total. Code is open source and imperfect, admits performance limits versus C++/Python, and pushes toward practical sensor fusion experiments.
