MIT researchers are training a robot arm to play Jenga

It turns out that forming a robotic arm to play Jenga is a surprisingly complex task. There are, so to speak, many moving parts. MIT researchers develop a modified ABB IRB 120, paired with a well-known board game, which uses a flexible clip, a force-sensitive wrist, and an external camera to design a robot that can remove a block without spilling the tower . The robot was trained with 300 attempts, instead of the thousands it would usually take, learning to group different attempts into groups as a sort of shortcut similar to the way humans teach themselves. With each
