- Sony Corporation (hereinafter referred to as Sony) announced today that its subsidiary, Sony Americas, has reached an agreement with Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) to conduct AI (artificial intelligence) and robotics research. Initial research and development efforts will focus on optimization. Food preparation, cooking and delivery areas. This research and development area was chosen because robots handle the technologies required for complex and varied meal preparation and delivery tasks and can be applied to a wider range of skills and industries. Specific applications include Those machines must handle fragile and irregularly shaped ingredients and perform complex home and small business tasks. In addition, robots developed for food preparation and delivery must be able to operate in tight spaces, a capability that can be used in many other industries. Are all valuable.
For this project, researchers will focus on defining areas for meal ordering, preparation, and delivery. Initially, they will be based on existing manipulators and mobile robots, and plan to develop new areas of dedicated robots for use in limited spaces. Complete predefined meal preparations. According to the needs of the consumers, the meal supply and preparation method can be adjusted according to individual dietary restrictions and certain ingredients. The meal can be delivered to the home or office before the meal is served. Can arrange elegant dining tables.
In addition to the current project, Sony plans to continue supporting Carnegie Mellon University’s AI and robot-related R&D and startup companies through its Seed Acceleration Program (SAP), Sony Business Incubation Platform and Sony Innovation Fund (a corporate venture capital fund).
The study will be conducted mainly at the Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science in Pittsburgh, PA. A group of teachers and student teams focused on robotics, AI and machine learning will participate. Sony, Dr. Kitano Kitahiro (Sony executives) ) will act as project leader.
'Preparing foods is a huge challenge for automation, so we're very excited about the types of machines and software that can be found when we explore ways and solutions together,' said Andrew Moore, Dean of the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. "The goals of Sony and Carnegie Mellon University are very high. We are confident that this research will develop technologies that will impact robotics science in a wide range of applications."
'This project has the potential to make AI and robotics sciences with a wide range of possibilities more familiar and usable.' Dr. Kitano said. 'In addition, it can also help those who have difficulties in preparing daily tasks such as food preparation. I am very excited Can work with Carnegie Mellon University talent scientists to achieve this vision.
