Artificial Intelligence for Artificial Humanoids
summary
SoftBank Robotics describes working humanoids Pepper and prototype Romeo for education, retail and senior care, not full home companions yet. Perception uses a fisheye camera plus an NVIDIA GPU and pixelwise deep‑learning to mark traversable space; a bump‑learning phase teaches navigation and breaks robots. Grasping uses markerned hands and remains research; a ball‑in‑cup skill converges after about 100 trials. Voice uses third‑party ASR and apps run on an Android SDK.
