And we're another step closer to Robocalypse: researchers at the Nara Institute Of Science And Technology (NAIST) in Tokyo are working on a robot that's supposed to one day dress humans autonomously. The current prototype, which NAIST says is the world's first robot of its kind, can help to put a T-shirt on a dummy in about 10 seconds.What's interesting is that for the arms, NAIST uses WAM, robots arms with 7 joints that are made by MIT spin off Barrett. According to the institute, the robot comes with 10 high-precision cameras to perform the (for a robot) difficult task and will be improved in the next few years.
