Virtual Characters Learn To Work Out…and Undergo Surgery 💪

I'm never doing a 1 leg squat ever again. I always had this feeling it was loading a lot of risky pressure on one leg, and even though this is just a simulation it's still scared me off doing it ever again

Insane... I wonder if the reverse would be possible for diagnosis - Using video footage of a person and letting an algorithm find out what parts of the body might be at fault.

Wow - incredible how similar those walks are to real gait abnormalities. How lifelike all of these turned out is a real testament to the power of training in large scale simulations

Humans: what kinda God would allow suffering?!!?

Yes, teaching future Terminators the basics of martial arts sounds like a genius idea...

That virtual character needs a virtual personal trainer, 100kg arching your back like that... He will need a virtual chiropractic soon

The AI needs to do facepulls everday (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

I wonder if the AI will learn to handstand walk if their deformity is worse enough. =]

Hope this gets used in the research industry more to develop better solutions for people with disabilities

It will be really interesting to see this combined with imitation learning to show athletes how to run faster and jump higher! This visualization is amazing, really cool paper!

This is awesome!! Does this have any medical significance or is it more geared toward use for simulation/AI/robotics and such fields?

When this tech makes it into a game, it will be sick!

This would be amazing for evolving prosthetics that have best performance replacing a natural limb

Wow, this is hopefully going to be incredibly useful in physiotherapeutic research!

imagine games having actual muscles you could train and strengthen, they would also have realistic injuries and adapt. this is amazing.

I love this channel. I'm finding so many things applicable in my own field, drawing correlations, it's wonderful. Thanks for everything that you do!

This is the most important thing that ai needs, The virtual training environment, build the entire robot in the environment and then plug ai into it to train itself to move. 3d print robots and assemble in the real world. Imagine have these pre designed machine parts that you could plug and play to build robots in the environments that also mirrored real world parts too, could we design new types of robots or even let ai design the robots from available parts. Almost keep adding assets like unreal engines except the assets mirror real world parts. Train all these things in vr and then plug them into real robots. Computer games could become vr controls for real robots, you know the way you move a character in a game, we just select the direction and character goes that way, ai could be the thing that walks real robots for humans when we select a direction, you could have mining all done in offices, security drones, military drones working with real soldiers, even home servants if robots could follow voice instructions , so many applications VR to AR robotics with vr training is powerful

This is really groundbreaking! You can give examples of wrong form and correct form for people that work out! without the repercussions of actual injury!
