Robot learns to toss

And does it amazingly well. From YT: We’ve developed TossingBot, a robotic arm that picks up items and tosses them to boxes outside its reach range. It is double the speed and dexterity of other state-of-the-art picking systems achieving 500+ mean picks per hour, and is better at throwing than most of the engineers on the team. The key to TossingBot is a self-improving artificial intelligence algorithm that uses a combination of both physics and deep learning. This enables it to learn quickly -- starting with just grasping objects in the morning, and eventually learning to toss them by the evening. The system is also general -- capable of handling objects it has never seen before, and adapting to new target landing locations.
