If we want to see robots thrive in different fields, it is important to establish appropriate ways or techniques that can be used to control or correct them whenever required. Normally, engineers prefer advanced programming or language processing techniques for a task like that, but all those methods do not provide enough flexibility, especially when there are multiple tasks at hand. This is why a group of researchers at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory developed a new system, one that allows robots to be controlled by our brains and gestures. Though the idea of controlling a machine with our mind may sound too farfetched, the researchers demonstrated the system successfully and are actually bringing it closer to real-world applications. A system developed at MIT allows a human supervisor to correct a robot's mistakes using gestures and brainwaves.
