<p>As robots begin to dominate our everyday lives, Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) researchers have taught a robot how to learn a new pick-and-place task with the help of human demonstrations.</p>

<p>The human demonstrations help to "reprogramme" the robot in random poses which it has never encountered earlier. The new technology allows the robot to quickly learn a new skill in&nbsp;10 to 15 minutes.</p>

<p>According to the researchers, the new technology uses a "neural network" to reconstruct 3D images, the system quickly grasps what the neural network has learned and then executes it.</p>

<p>The new technology is set to be a gamechanger in e-commerce warehouse storage where robots have to perform a variety of tasks like storing mugs upside down and in various places.</p>

<p>The researchers say the robot needs just ten demonstrations to learn a new technique for example on how to arrange&nbsp;bottles and bowls. The technology helps the robot to seamlessly manoeuvre through "unstructured environments".</p>

<p>The robot is taught how to pick a mug with physical examples much like how a child is taught. The researchers say the new "pick-and-place tasks" has an 85 per cent success rate which is assessed on how accurately the robot grasps a new object and places it in a particular location.&nbsp;</p>
