In the video, the robot learns how to walk. How does the robot know it
has arms in the first place? Did it likely have to figure this out
(perhaps prior to the video), or is it likely explicitly programmed to
move its arms randomely at first and go from there?
Along the same lines, how does a baby figure out it has arms and legs?
How does it figure out that they can be used for locomotion -- by
moving them around randomely at first?
I'm very curious...if anyone has any input, please post.
