They used internal force-torque sensors at 8 kHz + deep learning. The robot can feel where you touch it, recognize letters drawn on its surface, and respond to virtual buttons placed anywhere on its body.
What's interesting is the infrastructure behind it. To train these models, you need high-frequency sensor streams, manifold learning to unfold trajectories, and the ability to iterate fast.
They collected 2,300 samples from 20 people and hit 95.5% accuracy on digit recognition.
This is what's possible when you have the right data infrastructure.
