Garment-Folding Robot with Graphical Instruction
     


It's common to assume that the ideal way of communication with robots
will be verbally but this isn't always the case. Sometimes it's easier
to teach by showing examples. A group of Tokyo researchers from the JST ERATO User Interface for
Design Project demonstrated
this technique at Siggraph 2009. The YouTube video
above captures the final results, showing the robot successfully
folding a garment. A few more details of the graphical training process
can be found in the one
page poster for their exhibit (PDF format).
