DAMAGE ADAPTATION. “Robots learn to adapt to damage the way animals do. One six-legged walking robot ranked 13,000 styles of walking based on their effectiveness. Once damaged, the robot was able to begin testing the walking styles it predicted to be most effective, slowly ruling out options until it arrived at the best choice. The team was able to get their six-legged robot to walk well again in only a few minutes after two of its six legs were broken.”
