NVIDIA high-school intern builds humanoid robots

摘要

Sixteen-year-old NVIDIA intern Prat Prem Sankar's interest in robotics began more than five years ago when his father bought him a Lego Mindstorms NXT set, which is a programmable version of the toy. At that point, he said, he knew he wanted to be a robotics engineer. Flash forward to 2016's GPU Technology Con-ference-the world's largest event for GPU developers-where he sat in on a tu-torial on deep learning. Here, said Sankar, is where he first saw the possibilities of what deep learning could be used for.
