Robotics news
Robots continue to be one of the liveliest topics in the world media. All mankind looks with hope at the evolutionary development of these creatures, which are still so sweet and clumsy, like children, causing a smile from housewives and a satisfied smirk from paranoids cleaning their shotguns in anticipation of the SkyNet uprising: they say you are too early to fight with us, grow up again.
September and October were fruitful for interesting videos. It is not surprising - after all, the business season has begun, and research laboratories need to show their investors that they are not picking their nose or chopping all day in WoW.
The first video is a new model of a big dog (BigDog) from BostonDynamic:
')
The prototype is named very remarkable - AlfaDog. The alpha male of this cyber dog is much more stable, resilient and faster than its progenitor. Even two adult men who decide to overthrow the Alpha Dog cannot do this. Well, if the dog still fell, now he can stand up on his own feet.
The second video is about how ASIMO, a Honda robot, made friends with Kinect. Using a special application, a humanoid robot can capture and recognize human movements through Kinect and repeat them exactly.
The areas of application of such a bundle are, in general, obvious - telepresence systems. It remains to pull the skin of his clone on ASIMO and the surrogate is ready.
And the third impressive video is a demonstration of the Da Vinci robot. The essence of this robot surgeon is that the doctor sits down at a convenient remote control, which makes it possible to see the surgical site in 3D with multiple magnifications and uses special joysticks to control the instruments.
In the video shown, the doctor who controls the robot separates the peel from the grape.
I do not know about you, but I was pleased with these video reports, if I were their investor, I would list a couple more million dollars.
