Engineers are teaching the robot to walk
Robots, that is to say systems that are in varying degrees, facilitate human labor in factories, at home and on the streets at this time a great many. The issue of expanding their diversity dramatically not worth it, there is a need for greater autonomy in decision-making and mobility movements in the real world. That`s actually two areas where developing modern robotics.
In order for the robot was mobile enough you need at least or to teach him to levitate, or to equip his legs and learn to walk. Levitation in the laboratory as would have been used, but in reality, to use quite far. What remains But is that all familiar, a wheel and legs. The legs for the robot in the image and likeness of the human in significantly more acceptable solution than a normal wheel. Everything depends on selecting the permeability of the system. Where a person goes, the cart doesn`t always will pass.
Now scientists are busy trying to teach the robot to walk properly. Robots already walk, but you move so carefully that even the exploits of this movement is difficult to call. By the way, recently scientists from Switzerland have developed a system that in the implementation shown quite good parameters in motion. The COMAN robot is a usual movable of two Nogay platform that practicing a special algorithm moves on two legs like a normal human foot. Scientists want the robot to do a master at walking. The most important in the robot is certainly adequate perception of reality and testing of motor functions to maintain the system as it moves through the terrain in the vertical form.
The robot sees all that surrounds him, up to the maximum number of points on the ground calculates the distance, puts his foot on the surface practicing her uneven and skewed vertically. All like clear, but to implement the entire set of functions the robot needs a very high performance system. Something similar is already there and based on just such a powerful and compact positioning systems, scientists from the EU of trying to create a robotic system on two legs, which will in the future not only successfully walking on rough terrain, but to run as an athlete for the usual road.
Technology, as it developed, the piece is introduction, but the technology output in the light is out of the question, still very much remains to be done before all plans will be realized in full. Such robots will be used in the future to deliver on the 9th floor of a luxury sofa, if the Elevator is not working, or for use in a military target ( the range of application is very extensive).
