•
Rudin identifies the sim-to-real gap: robots that perform well in simulated environments often fail in real-world environments because simulations cannot capture the full complexity of physical reality.
•
Rudin studies the 60-year biography of robotics promises and failures to avoid repeating past mistakes: autonomous robots have been 'five years away' for five decades.
