When it doesn&#8217;t work as expected, they visit their local university where they discover new research in Artificial Intelligence and robot learning. The book introduces readers to cutting-edge robotics and AI in a highly accessible way and models authentic engineering practices such as iterative design, testing, and learning through failure. With a diverse cast of characters and colorful, humorous illustrations, How to Train Your Robot will inspire girls and members of other under-represented groups to explore engineering, robotics, and coding for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Book with <a href=\"http:\/\/j.mp\/How-to-Train-Your-Robot-book\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Free Download.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Featured in the <a href=\"https:\/\/spectrum.ieee.org\/automaton\/robotics\/home-robots\/robot-gift-guide-2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IEEE Robot Gift Guide.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Selected for inclusion in the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amplify.com\" target=\"_blank\">Amplify Science Digital Library<\/a> accessible to over 5 million US students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"video-embed\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Train Your Robot\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/474022464\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/474022464\">How to Train Your Robot<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/citrisproductions\">CITRIS Productions<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information please contact:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ken Goldberg<\/strong><br>William S.
