Robotics today is one of the most promising areas of development of science and technology.
Over the past two decades scientists and engineers have achieved in this area incredible heights. And the more established amazing things, the faster develops this futuristic market. In the new cycle of reviews, we will begin to demonstrate the most unusual things, which could make the robots without any human intervention.
1. Animal robots
Although advances in this area are very narrow and important essentially only to the development of robotics, as such, they should be noted in the first place. Today, there are a few robots trying to copy living organisms of our planet.
So it is quite successful robotic centipede, robot snakes, robot cheetahs, and a robotic fish. Meet some others.
2. Robots-captains
In USA today there is a robot that can fly a small military boat. Moreover, several such robots can be connected to the system and work together, analyzing not only the environmental conditions but also the actions of each other. Definitely not far off the time when machines start to replace humans on the battlefield.
3. Robots in nuclear power plants
Nuclear energy can be a panacea for mankind, and the undertaker. In the past five years, Japanese engineers managed to make significant progress in the development and production of robots for nuclear power plants. These machines can not only eliminate the consequences in case of emergency, but to serve the station, performing the most life-threatening human tasks.
4. Rock, scissors, paper
Modern robots beat human chess and challenging from a mathematical point of view, the game “go”. You can be horrified and the fact that with high probability the robot already beats the man in the rock, scissors, paper.
5. Robots in space
For of space robots are great helpers. Canadian space Agency a few years ago was sent to the ISS stunning “gift” of the robot, which the astronauts themselves called “Dexter”. This machine is man’s best friend is used to perform the most dangerous and important work in outer space.
6. Player ping-pong
Play with table ping-pong, or table tennis, it is not interesting. A person can be found not always. Now scientists and engineers have decided to teach robots and this game. Currently, mechanical hands, it turns well enough to beat the flying ball in the right direction.
7. Robots working on the farm
Finally, the robots are able to engage in agriculture. I mean, to do it independently, without direct control by humans. These robots are now used in several countries of Europe, Asia and the USA.
