The time has finally come to bow down to our robot masters. Dr. Peter Kormushev and his colleagues of the Italian Institute of Technology have successfully programmed a robot to aim and shoot a bow and arrow. Not only is the robot capable of hitting a target, but with within eight shots the robot was hitting a bulls-eye. After each shot the robot is capable of seeing where it hits allowing it to adjust its aim each and every time.
Lucky for us the program ARCHER (Augmented Reward Chained Regression) is completely open source, allowing the production of defensive drones to be started immediately. So get started on your own TODAY.
