Scientists have demonstrated two robots using human-like dexterity to construct an Ikea chair. Components of the chair were randomly scattered in front of the robots, who were able to identify the correct parts and detect force to understand when, for example, pins were fully inserted into their holes, all while managing to move without obstructing one another.
From planning to execution, the robots only took 20 minutes to build the chair, with the construction itself only taking 8 minutes, 55 seconds to complete. Scary.
