I wonder why the robot did it.
Was it because it was programmed to also be the arbiter? And actively prevent people from making illegal moves?
If so the designers are idiots.
Or maybe it was a bug and it thought that the finger was a piece?
If so the designers make a bug. Still worrisome but at least not plain idiotic.
- moffkalast 4y agoIt probably only checks the state before/after and blindly does the arm movement in between as is usual for these industrial robots, since they can do this quite percisely without active corrections. I doubt it has any kind of hand or finger detection built in, since all you need is to figure out the board state.
- BrandoElFollito 4y agoI had a look several times at the video (the quality is awful) and it seems that it is going for the position of the piece of the boy. This cannot happen in chess. So if it squeezed his finger because it expected his own piece there, then this is a serious bug in the program.
