Genesis Physics Sim Does Superfast Simulated Reality Robot Training

Genesis, a new open source computer simulation system that lets robots practice tasks in simulated reality 430,000 times faster than in the real world. Basically, it is a neural network in which robots can learn to pick up and manipulate objects.

Check out their cool Genesis: A Generative and Universal Physics Engine for Robotics and Beyond project page. The video below summarizes the page and shows lots of its great videos.

We all remember this Neo moment from the Matrix:

Now, robots get their moment, except for real.

Consider an earlier effort to teach robots; check out iCub Robot ARCHER Gets Weapons Training from fifteen years ago. Here's the video:
