Irony Man,
The Sassy Robot
Fans of Douglas Adams must be familiar with
Marvin the Paranoid Android, disappointed if the little robot is proud of
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. However, instead of a weird Android, how
about a Sassi? A robot that rolls its eyes from time to time and spreads
asymmetrical comments Well. With a sense of irony, scientists at the University
of Osborne have created it just after programming one of their latest robots.
The aptly named Iron Man is designed to be less formal and more relevant than
ordinary AI. Unlike most talking machines, which speak in a flat monotonous
voice, Iron Man is able to reflect the real patterns of human speech. So if
someone says that “traffic is depressing,” Iron Man will retaliate by saying “I
like to get stuck here” with a sarcastic emphasis on the word “love”. But why
would anyone want to make a smart-looking robot? The creators of Arnie Mann
thought that if he was programmed to talk like a real person, it would be
easier to be with him. And I think they were right. The students who took part
in an experiment with Iron Man thought he was more favorable than a standard
machine. However, there are still concerns about his lack of strategy. Iron Man
can use sarcasm but is unable to judge if it is appropriate, so sometimes he
becomes a bit weak.
Skybot
F-850, Russia’s Robot Astronaut
The Skybot F-5050 is an Android astronaut, a
fully automated machine designed by the Russian space agency to live on the
International Space Station (ISS). Specially programmed to prevent
unintentional space centers from being damaged. In the summer of 2016, the
mechanical astronaut spent two weeks working on the ISS "Social Crew"
human crew. During his time in orbit, Skybot was able to communicate with his
fellow astronauts, answer their questions and entertain them with odd jokes.
Alexander Blochenko, executive director of the Russian space agency, told
reporters:-
"Future generations of such robots will solve tasks that are potentially of special risk for humans, such as extravehicular activities and telemetry operations on solar system bodies".
Lovot, The
Cuddly Robot
In our modern age, when everyone seems to be
moving at a speed of one mile per second, loneliness can be a big problem. For
those struggling with companionship, Japanese startup Groove X has been
designed a little furry robot - Lovot, that comforts people in need of a friend. For
those who need a good hug, its playful “skin” is designed to be warm and easily
bound, and the robot is always happy for somewhat intimate personal contact.
Over time, Lovot's emotional bond grows stronger as it learns its owner's face
and when they return home to meet them human but trying to heal and heal with
artificial friendship instead of human connection Interesting question.
However, whatever your opinion, Lovot has been selling in Japan for over a year
now. And developers say that with future investment, it could soon begin its
journey in the United States as well.
Robot
Translator For Fish And Bees
In the year 2019, scientists at the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne brought a machine into the light to
everyone that enables fish and bees to speak to each other. Researchers have
created a robot translator that can send messages between a group of zebrafish
and a swarm of bees. Scientists from different countries decided to run their
experiments to really challenge them. The fish were in one place in
Switzerland. The bees were a few miles away in neighboring Austria The robot
translator issued orders to each species translating its responses into signals
for the other group. So the fish can show any color or tail movement that
affects the direction of their swimming. This would then translate into vibration or a change in temperature, which caused the bees to move to a
different place. The speed of the bee was then translated into the signal of
the fish and so on. The experiment was a perfect nightmare, but after 25
minutes of confusion, the animals began to respond to their robotic stimuli. Or
warns bees about pesticides on trees.
Lego Robot
With Worm’s Brain
Imagine mapping the entire human brain with
all the pulses and electrical signals and uploading them to the machine.
Theoretically, you can become immortal, living forever as a digital being. If it
sounds like a policy lame, you'd be happy to hear that scientists are far from
achieving anything sophisticated. However they were able to remove a similar
feat using a tiny worm and some Lego 2014 In 2014, neuro-robotic researchers
mapped the brain of small herpes, all 302 neurons, and converted it into a
digital simulation. The simulation of a complete brain is remarkable in itself,
but scientists decided to feed their virtual brains to Lego robots. The Lego
bot was highly sophisticated; It acted as a sound sensor for a nose and the
motor cortex of two motors. However, with a little tweet enabling the virtual
worm's brain to control the robot, it moves around a test station and prevents
it from hitting the walls. Build life forms.
China’s
Robot Traffic Police
In 2019, China began using robots to control
its roads. The Handan Public Security Bureau now employs three styles of robots
that help keep its existing officers disciplined. The three robots are similar
in design, but each of them works very differently. O's designers have even
given it a uniform and a hat to make it look like a human officer. Another, an
accident warning robot, told nearby drivers that police were dealing with an
incident. The third type is the advisory traffic robot, which assists drivers
directly at vehicle handling stations, also keeping an eye out for safety
risks. In 2016, authorities began using a security robot at Shenzhen Airport,
and in 2017 an e-patrol sheriff was launched in Henan.
Julia, The
Robot Who Taught Herself To Cook
Cooking is a difficult task. Taking training
as a professional chef takes a huge dedication to study and learning crafts
in the kitchen school for a few years. But what if there was an easier way?
What if you could teach a robot to cook without spending years and years of
training and it could make a meal for you? Researchers at the University of
Maryland is working on just that. Unlike most machines, their robot - known as
Julia - does not require step-by-step instructions. Instead, she watched videos
on YouTube and learned to cook by copying what she saw. Now Julia Michelin is
no longer close to the star level. His culinary skills are limited to a few basic
activities. But it is also an achievement. Things that may seem easy to you or
me, such as a glass of water, are actually quite challenging for a robot.
Robot Fish,
By Synthetic Blood
Looks like Chitsi is out of sci-fi horror
movies: robotic fish that run on blood power. But in reality, a mechanical fish
is no villain. In reality, it could be the future of energy-efficient robotics.
One of the main limitations of robotic design is stationary storage. Most
devices either run out of power very quickly or turn on heavy batteries which
slows them down. In contrast, robotic fish run on hydraulic fluid - which is
the equivalent of real fish blood - and gain enough strength to swim upstream
for 3stream hours. Speed, however, is not the robot's strong position. It flows
at a length of one and a half feet per minute less, however, the robotic fish
is a notable masterpiece of engineering. Professor Rob Shepherd, one of the
leading developers at Cornell University, told reporters:
“We want to take as many components as we can into a robot and convert
them into energy systems. If your robot already has hydroelectric fluids, you
can tap into large power stores and give the robots extra freedom to operate
autonomously”.
Healthcare
Robots Fighting Coronavirus
In the Rwandan capital, Kigali, robots are
leading the fight against coronaviruses. The use of mechanical practitioners in
the treatment centers of Getenga and Kanainiya means that workers spend less
time around Kovid positive patients and therefore they themselves are less
likely to be infected with the disease. The massive breakout of the coronavirus
has forced health workers everywhere to think outside the box The way to deal
with the epidemic is designed by Zorbots, able to monitor the vital signs of
five robot patients, provide video messages, and correct people for not wearing
their masks properly. One of the Androids currently stands at Kigali
International Airport screening 150 people a minute.
The
Shape-Shifting Submarine - Aquanaut
Transformers was one of the most popular
franchises of the 1980s and one of the most terrifying film series of the 2000s. Transformers, for those who are not aware, are autonomous robots that
can transform themselves into motor vehicles. These reshaping wonders contained
children’s imaginations for decades, but they always seemed like an
extraordinary work of fiction, something that could never be created in
reality. So far, scientists at Houston Mechatronics Inc. have created a
real-life transformer - a semi-human robot that can transform itself into a
submarine. They named it Accountant. The makers wanted to create a machine that
combined the accuracy of long-range bots with the freedom of long-distance
underwater vehicles. With a budget of almost 23 million,
Aquant is primarily designed for use in deep-sea oil and gas pipelines. The
robot began to emerge in a series of "submarine modes", diving
endlessly through the water until the target was reached. After that, its
transformation begins. The top of the hall rises to the top and a head and two
long arms are lifted for work on the pipeline. In addition to its metaphorical
skills, Aquanaut carries a variety of sophisticated equipment. It has a 3D
sensor, stereo camera, and a gold system on its head.
