This question is slightly embarrassing to ask in this situation, but it is also an important question. It is related to the sustained combat capability of this individual heavy-duty exoskeleton to assist the protective armor, so since people have raised questions, Wu Hao must answer them head-on.
So even though there was a black line hanging all over his forehead, he still bit the bullet and explained: "This problem is actually the same as the life support system currently used by Air Force fighter jets, which has a complete and humane support system.
First of all, the problems you mentioned are all responsible for the life support system of the system.
The function of the entire life support system is to ensure the life safety and health of the driver inside the individual heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armor.
As for the issue you raised, we have also taken it into consideration and specially designed a guarantee system.
First of all, because the heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armor for individual soldiers is designed to fit the surface of the human body, it cannot perform related physiological excretion activities normally.
Therefore, we need to conduct relevant research and design, and specially design a urinary system worn by drivers.
If you need to fight for a long time, you can wear it in advance so that the urine sent out can be collected. Also collected is sweat evaporated from human skin.
In addition, inside the helmet, we also have a moisture supply straw through which the driver can replenish water.
And this set of straws can also deliver nutrient solution and some liquid food, which is used to replenish physical strength and fight for a long time. "
The meaning of Wu Hao's words has been very clear. This system can only supply water, liquid food and nutrient solution, and can also support the collection of human sweat and urine. As for defecation, it is currently not supported.
Otherwise, we will not only provide liquid food. This is also to reduce the number of solid excretions as much as possible.
Of course, this kind of liquid food also has disadvantages, that is, it does not taste very good and does not feel full.
This is also an optimal solution after considering all factors. You can't just open a window on the butt of this set of heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armor for individual soldiers and use it for squatting.
After hearing his introduction, everyone present nodded and agreed with Wu Hao's plan. For now, this is indeed the best option.
And this in itself is not an important problem. Some of it can still be overcome. Even on tanks and armored vehicles, it is impossible to install a toilet, let alone on a fighter plane.
Xiao Yunfei, as for Xiao Yunfei, looked at the fixed-position bandage buckles in the cockpit of the individual soldier's heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armor. He couldn't help but frowned and asked: "I took a look just now. This set of individual heavy-duty exoskeletons... Putting on the bone-assisted protective armor is very complicated and requires the assistance of an assistant. I'm afraid I won't give you such a long time on the battlefield."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this and said: "It is indeed a bit complicated, but these two sets of individual heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armors are only prototype engineering prototypes, not mass production equipment.
We also need to listen to and collect opinions from testers and customers, and then make corresponding changes.
As for the complicated wearing issue you mentioned, we have actually considered it. In the future, all these bandage buckles that restrain the human body will be automated. People only need to go in and lean in, and these fixed buckles will automatically fix you.
When you open the cockpit and want to get out, these buckles will automatically release. The whole process is very fast. A well-trained driver can complete this series of operations within ten seconds and start the equipment into combat status. "
Everyone was quite satisfied with his answer. For a tank crew, it takes a certain amount of time to activate the tank, prepare for battle, and then enter the battle. Not to mention the fighter planes that need to take off for combat, so this time is still acceptable.
Qi Lei from the Navy came up with a very bold idea at this time.
"Xiao Wu, I saw the multi-tentacled robot you built, and I also saw your smart bionic electronic prosthetic limbs. I'm wondering if these technologies have been overcome, whether it is possible to realize this set of heavy-duty exoskeleton assistance for individual soldiers. The protective armor is unmanned.”
"Um?"
Hearing Qi Lei's words, the eyes of everyone present lit up, and then they all looked at him.
Seeing this, Wu Hao smiled, and then said with a helpless expression: "You are talking about a humanoid robot similar to Boston Dynamics' Petman (name of the robot)."
"Yes, that's it. I guessed it right, you are researching technology in this field." Qi Lei's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
Others present were shocked when they heard this and looked at Wu Hao with interest.
Wu Hao glanced at everyone present, and then nodded: "Everyone present is my leader and elders, and I will not hide it from you. We are indeed engaged in research on intelligent robots.
Our series of intelligent bionic electronic prostheses, including the capture and recognition system of human movement biological signals, and even part of the technology of this set of heavy-duty exoskeleton-assisted protective armor for individual soldiers, all come from this project.
Although I really want it to meet with you as soon as possible, we have encountered problems in project research, and it is still a problem that cannot be solved for a while.
First of all, the human body's motion system is a very complex biological control motion comprehensive system. It is very difficult to successfully bionic it and create corresponding robots as flexible as our limbs.
Although we have developed intelligent bionic electronic prostheses, their control signals also come from the motor neurophysiological signals of our human body.
If we want to rely on the system alone to flexibly control a robotic arm that is as flexible as our human limbs, research in this area is still needed.
There is no way, because there are too many things to calculate.
Secondly, it is the coordination ability of multiple limbs. Human body movement does not rely on a single limb, but is caused by the cooperation of multiple parts.
This requires the orderly coordination of multiple parts of the control system to form a complex set of limb movement control systems.
Petman has been researching this project for almost 20 years, and its biggest achievement so far is just to learn some of our human skills such as walking, jumping and flipping. But these are not what it has learned, but what we human engineers have enriched it with using data and algorithms.
Change the test location, change the environment, change the test project, and it may not work.
In other words, it can skip this stone because it has made special optimization and calculations for this stone. If it were another stone, it would not be certain whether it could be jumped over. "
