Meng Hai smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "No, rather than saying it is a Gundam, I would rather call it a mecha."
Mecha?
Mecha!
The eyes of Zou Xiaodong and the people accompanying him couldn't help but sparkle. They all stretched their necks as if they were seeing a peerless beauty or a rare treasure, looking at the huge mecha, or robot, standing in the middle of the hall.
Wu Hao's eyes were naturally full of interest. He had learned about this project before and had seen this big guy in photos and videos. But photos and videos are far from as shocking and real as being on the scene, especially the powerful aura displayed by this robot, which makes everyone feel a sense of oppression at all times.
Seeing everyone's interest, Meng Hai also introduced it to everyone.
"Our mecha (robot) project number is HYJQ_0001, codenamed "Xingtian". This project is under the auspices of Mr. Wu, and is jointly conducted by our Automation Machinery Technology Research Institute, Brain-Computer Interaction Thought Control Laboratory, Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, etc. A high-level secret development project established.
This Xingtian mecha, or Xingtian robot, is a manned mecha, or humanoid robot, that we finally established based on the company's existing technology and through continuous integration, innovation and development.
The entire "Xingtian" humanoid robot is 3.4 meters tall and weighs 1.5 tons. The related technology and structure of the entire robot have absorbed the technology and structure of our previous intelligent mechanical arms, as well as intelligent bionic electronic prostheses, super intelligent mechanical exoskeletons and other equipment. Relevant key technologies, and after integration and innovation, an optimized mechanical whole is obtained.
In fact, you can also look at it this way. Our original intelligent robotic arms and those large-scale robotic arms can be seen as early derivatives of this project.
In the entire "Xingtian" humanoid robot, we have used a total of 170 new high-torque motors, distributed in various joint movable parts of the body, to provide this "Xingtian" humanoid robot with flexible and powerful body movements.
Such a powerful robot must naturally be equipped with super power energy. We have equipped it with our company's super solid-state battery, which can provide this big guy with relatively sufficient power.
Even if we equip this "Xingtian" humanoid robot with a 100 kilogram super solid-state battery, it can only maintain movement for more than four hours.
However, this standby time is enough for it to complete many things. "
After hearing Meng Hai's somewhat proud introduction, the light in everyone's eyes became even more dazzling.
Zou Xiaodong looked up at the head of this "Xingtian" humanoid robot, and then asked eagerly: "How do you get in this mecha? How do you control it?"
Hehehe... Hearing Zou Xiaodong's question, Meng Hai and other researchers laughed.
Meng Hai smiled and shook his head: "Our "Xingtian" humanoid robot currently uses remote control technology. At present, the driver does not have the conditions for personal driving."
remote control? After hearing Meng Hai's answer, everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and a little confused. Why does such an advanced mecha use remote control technology to control it? In this way, wouldn't it greatly limit the use environment of this mecha?
It would be nice if people could just get in like in movies and TV shows.
Meng Hai naturally felt the disappointment and doubts in everyone's expressions. However, he explained with a leisurely smile.
"This "Xingtian" humanoid robot is currently only a prototype and is in the research and development test stage. So for the sake of safety, we use wireless remote control technology.
Of course, although wireless remote control technology has some disadvantages, such as being susceptible to interference, there is a certain delay, etc. But it also has its own advantages. First of all, unmanned operation can leave a very valuable and huge internal space for the robot, which can be used to equip more components and more battery energy, increasing its own endurance and standby capability.
Secondly, unmanned operation can be applied to many situations. Because there are no people, there is no need to worry about danger, let alone casualties. In this way, it can be used in dangerous areas that people cannot go to, such as mine clearance and explosive blasting, and some more dangerous rescue and disaster relief tasks.
Finally, and most importantly, our "Xingtian" humanoid robot remote control technology is different from traditional remote control technology.
We use an advanced brain-computer interaction system to wear relevant sensors on the driver's body to record the motor nerve electrical signals, muscle contraction, limb spatial displacement, and brain wave signals on the driver's body. Thus, come to control our "Xingtian" humanoid robot one-on-one. "
After hearing Meng Hai's introduction, Zou Xiaodong reacted and said: "I feel that this is a bit like the tactile simulation clothes in our VR equipment. That suit also collects the wearer's body movement data and transmits it to the game character. This allows game characters to have the same real and flexible movement postures as players, and gives players a more realistic experience."
Yes, our technology comes from that. In other words, the technology in the intelligent VR system itself is an early derivative of our project.
What a big move. I'm afraid this project has already started. Zou Xiaodong sighed.
Although he is a shareholder of the company, he is mainly responsible for the production of this product, and the research is not under his control, let alone these projects involving related company secrets.
"Yes, this project started very early, but in the early stage we have been engaged in the development of relevant key basic technologies to lay the foundation for subsequent formal development. It was not until the relevant key technologies achieved breakthroughs that our project team officially established the project Established." Meng Hai nodded and said.
After hearing Meng Hai's series of introductions, the accompanying staff member who followed Wu Hao was actually a young man who was not much older and asked excitedly: "Is this human-computer interaction control system a bit like the one in "Pacific Rim"?" The same 'floating neuron connections' used by mechas."
Meng Hai and a group of scientific researchers laughed out loud when they heard this young man's question. Then he looked at the young man and everyone else and shook his head with a smile: "There are similarities, but there are still big differences in principle and technology.
To put it simply, we also rely on human brain waves and human motor nerve bioelectrical signals, as well as the spatial movement displacement points of limb joints for comprehensive calculation and control.
There is brain-computer interaction control technology, but there are also other related control technologies. Several control technologies work together to control and learn from each other's strengths. "
