Flexible robot arms learn to predict their next move

Researchers have developed a method that keeps computer predictions of a flexible, elephant-trunk-like robot arm's motion on track, even when the arm moves faster than the model was trained for. Such arms can slip into tight spaces and handle fragile objects but are harder to control.
