On screenshots, the point of view is equivalent to the absolute positions and their relative positions using absolute(screen x and y) measurements.
You don't need a robot to learn about how AGI works and figure out how to solve some problems. It would be a terrible mistake to spend years, or even weeks for that matter, on robotics before getting started.
