Can this robot make the most shock-absorbing object ever?🦾💥 Inside a lab @bostonu an autonomous 3D printing robot is using AI machine learning trying to make the most efficient energy-absorbing shape to ever exist. To do this, the robot creates a small plastic structure with a 3D printer, records its shape and size, moves it to a flat metal surface—and then crushes it. The robot then measures how much energy the structure absorbed before disposing of the object, and using this data to inform t
