Researchers have taught a robot some archery skills.

Scientists at the Italian Institute of Technology taught the iCub robot how to hold a bow and arrow. A computer program then allowed the robot to learn from its mistakes and correct its aim. The robot was so good that it only took eight goes before it could hit the bull’s-eye!

Check out the video below to see the robot improve his aim!
