Advances in soft robotics usher in a new era of scientific analysis

Researchers from MIT and Stanford University created a machine-learning method that can derive a controller for a robot, drone, or autonomous vehicle that is more effective at following a stable trajectory than other methods. This technique could help, for instance, a drone to closely follow a downhill skier despite being buffeted by strong winds. Credits:Image: MIT News, with figures from iStock
