 As opposed to traditional robots, which are programmed to follow a specific set of commands, Baxter can be programmed by moving its hand to perform a task whose motions the computer will then memorize and be able to repeat the task.Extra dials, buttons, and controls are available on Baxter's arm for more precision and features.While most other industrial robots require computer programmers to code them over many hours, programming Baxter can be done by unskilled workers in a few minutes.
