Robots are still slower than humans in many tasks. Plenty of researchers are working to change that. A team from the University of Cambridge is using machine learning algorithms to teach a robot to read braille twice as fast as humans. It can reach braille at speeds of 315 words per minute. The below video shows this robot in action.
This robot uses a camera in its fingertip that it combines with sensors to read fast. The team uses machine learning to enable the robot reader to deblur images for its sensor to recognize the lea
