ASU Basketball Playing Robot
The video shows a bimanual robot that learns to throw a ball into the hoop using reinforcement learning. A novel reinforcement learning algorithm Sparse Latent Space Policy Search allows the robot to learn the task within only about 2 hours. The robot repeatedly throws the ball and receives a reward based on the distance of the ball to the center of the hoop. Algorithmic details about the method can be found here:
