Researchers have crafted an AI system that can tune a robotic knee to allow walking on level ground within 10 minutes. It uses a trial-and-error algorithm to recognize patterns in sensor data, seen initial safety limits, and learn patterns that match stable, smooth walking motions. Considering that people who receive robotic limbs usually need to spend hours adjusting prosthetics, this represents a major improvement for amputees.
