    Sorting waste with local rules

    ALOHA is asked to sort objects into compost, recycling, and trash using San Francisco guidelines. It identifies the green bin for compost, blue for recycling, and black for trash.

  2. 0:40

    Combining web lookup and visual reasoning

    The system looks up the disposal rules, examines the objects, and matches each object to a bin before completing the task. This example combines internet access with robot control.

    Packing for a rainy trip

    Apollo is asked to put a beanie in a travel bag for a trip to London. When asked about the weather, it predicts rain on several days the following week and adds an umbrella.
