SAN FRANCISCO Nike Air Jordan 4 For Sale , May 26 (Xinhua) -- Roboticists at the University of California, Berkeley, have built a new robot that can pick up and move unfamiliar, real-world objects with a 99 percent success rate.


The dexterous robot, called DexNet 2.0, gained its highly accurate dexterity through a process called deep learning.


Irregularly shaped items such as shoes Nike Air Jordan 12 For Sale , spray bottles, open boxes, rubber duckies are easy for people to grab and pick up, but robots struggle with knowing where to apply a grip.


UC Berkeley professor Ken Goldberg, postdoctoral researcher Jeff Mahler and the Laboratory for Automation Science and Engineering (AUTOLAB) created DexNet 2.0 with the support of a vast database of three-dimensional shapes, 6.7 million data points in total Nike Air Jordan 1 For Sale , that a neural network uses to learn grasps, which in turn will pick up and move objects with irregular shapes.


The neural network was then connected to a 3D sensor and a robotic arm. When an object is placed in front of DexNet 2.0, it quickly studies the shape and selects a grasp that will successfully pick up and move the object 99 percent of the time.


Featured as the cover story of the latest issues of MIT Technology Review, DexNet 2.0 is also three times faster than its previous version.


With such a high success rate, claimed UC Berkeley's Industrial Engineering and Operations Research Department in a news release. "it is likely that this work will soon be applied in industry, possibly revolutionizing manufacturing and the supply chain."


AUTOLAB at the public university in Northern California is a world-renowned center for research in robotics and automation sciences Nike Air Jordan 11 For Sale , with more than 30 postdoctoral researchers, doctoral and undergraduate students pursuing projects in Cloud Robotics, Deep Reinforcement Learning, Learning from Demonstrations, Computer Assisted Surgery, Automated Manufacturing and New Media Artforms.

Calling the practice “at odds with modern day societal norms,” Formula 1 on Wednesday announced it no longer would employ “grid girls,” models who perform various promotional duties during races.


“Over the last year, we have looked at a number of areas which we felt needed updating so as to be more in tune with our vision for this great sport Nike Jorjdan 4 For Sale ,” Sean Bratches, Formula 1’s managing director for commercial operations, said in a statement on the circuit’s website. “While the practice of employing grid girls has been a staple of Formula 1 Grands Prix for decades, we feel this custom does not resonate with our brand values and clearly is at odds with modern day societal norms. We don’t believe the practice is appropriate or relevant to Formula 1 and its fans, old and new, across the world.”


The decision did not sit well with some grid girls Nike Jordan 12 For Sale , who railed against what they see as an overreach of political correctness.


“Ridiculous that women who say they are ‘fighting for women’s rights’ are saying what others should and shouldn’t do, stopping us from doing a job we love and are proud to do. PC gone mad,” now-former grid girl Rebecca Cooper wrote on Twitter.




Michelle Westby, meanwhile, wrote on Facebook that her experience as a grid girl helped pave the way for her entrance to the male-dominated world of stunt and drift competition driving. She also said a lot of women will lose a source of income, thanks to “feminists.”


“I’m now retired from it all but to think girls have now lost a lot of important income because feminists think they know best when they haven’t a clue is really frustrating Nike Jordan 1 For Sale , we have our own voice, we loved doing the job, this is all basically because some men can’t control what comes out their mouth and nothing to do with the girls,” she wrote Thursday on Facebook. “I can walk past a building site and get the same comments so why suddenly a job should be taken away due to some unwanted male attention is a joke. What’s next? No female magazines, commercials ….. where does it end.”




“It’s upsetting, and I’m rather disgusted that F1 have given in to the minority to be politically correct Nike Jordan 11 For Sale ,” a former grid girl named Charlotte Gash told BBC Radio 5 live. “I’m one of the lucky ones that I don’t rely on this as a main source of income, but there are girls out there who do. I know the grid girls are there to look pretty when they’re out on the grid, but my role was interacting with the crowd and we were there as an advertisement for the sponsors. We love doing it, and we don’t want it taken away from us.”
