Researchers at the University of California, San Diego have developed an artificial intelligence system, called ExBody2, that lets robots copy and smoothly perform many different human movements in more lifelike ways. After it had been trained on motion capture database, ExBody2 was put in control of two different commercial humanoid robots. It was able to smoothly string together simple movements, such as walking in a straight line and crouching, as well as perform trickier moves, such as following a 40-second dance routine, throwing punches and waltzing with a human.
