The article discusses a learning framework that allows robots to simulate their own kinematics and motor control just by observing their movements in a mirror-like manner. This self-learned simulation enables accurate motion planning and allows the robot to detect abnormalities and recover from damage. The authors argue that this type of self-awareness and adaptability is crucial for robots to function effectively in everyday tasks and environments. The learning framework eliminates the need for extensive real-world data collection and kinematic priors.
