A new technique eliminates a source of bias in a popular simulation method, which could enable scientists to create new algorithms that are more accurate and boost the performance of applications and networks.
MIT researchers created a bio-inspired platform that could make robots more animal-like. Soft robots that can traverse through diverse environments, swim, crawl, and wiggle like real animals may sound like something out of a sci-fi movie, but researchers from MIT have brought us one step closer to this reality with their latest development - SoftZoo.
SoftZoo is an open-source platform developed at MIT CSAIL that simulates wildlife for soft robotics co-design more systematically and computationally, thus better advancing the development of relevant algorithms.
