AT&T captivates with its new Captivate Commercial »

Slowly but surely robots are becoming more and more human-like. Take a look at this robot here known as Barrett WAM 7 DOFs. Sure, it takes him a few failed attempts to get the flipping down right but once Mr. Barrett gets it down, he’s one step closer to world domination!

A robot learning to flip pancakes from Sylvain Calinon on Vimeo.

After about 50 trials, the robot figures out the technique needed in order to have a successful pancake flip. I guess I need to make 49 more pancakes until I get this technique right myself.
