the umbilical link of man to robot
Mass Worcester. —
Atlas did not shrug
But he wobbled, lost control, stammered and hobbled.
One afternoon, his task was to clean up a piece of debris.
After many painful moments, in a series of sudden and violent movements, he squatted down and took pains to grasp one accurately. by-
Then put it on his right.
According to the speed he moves, it may take a few days to finish the housework.
In this case, Atlas is a notable Sixfoot-
High imitation human robot that evokes the two-legged \"Star Wars\" robot C-3PO.
It is located in a messy robotics lab at Worcester Polytechnic, and a team of students, engineers and software hackers is training 330.
Pound packs for sensors, computers, metal pillars, joints and cables.
Seven teams are working with Atlas robots made by Boston power.
A fund research firm based in Waltham, Massachusetts.
Like other teams, the Worcester team is preparing for the competition held by the Pentagon Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency on December.
The competition aims to speed up the work in the robot field through prototype machines, which can work effectively and autonomously in extreme emergencies, such as the failure of nuclear power plants.
This vision evokes science fiction for decades.
Science fiction movies like \"I, Robot\"
Directional walking machines glide gracefully and precisely around the world.
At present, the gap between this dream and reality is daunting.
The big part of the challenge is that in the lab, Atlas is still tied --
In the sense of mountain climbing, \"in the Ambroxol Hydrochloride Tablets \".
Just like toddlers learn to walk, it is wearing a seat belt and whenever it moves, the human operator with safety glasses puts himself behind the transparent plastic case.
Care is guaranteed.
If the robot was really crushed, it wouldn\'t hit the lawn like a human football player.
It\'s more like a car accident.
The value of each Atlas is about $2 million, and robotic experts will elaborate to ensure that this does not happen.
While smaller and lighter autonomous robots like Honda\'s Asimo or South Korea\'s Hubo move around without help, it is almost certain that Atlas will never be in humans
It has dozens of pounds on each arm and feels like a metal baseball bat.
It will roar when Atlas works.
Hydraulic compressors scream at a decibel level below Occupational safety and hygiene management safety limits.
\"It scares me,\" said Matt De Donato, 26. year-
The old engineering leader of W. P. I. team.
\"I\'m not close to it when it runs.
\"One member of the team is holding a rope and the other is standing guard with a large red emergency stop button while the robot controller sits in front of a large computer screen.
It shows a 3-
D image, called \"point cloud\", is generated by the robot\'s laser range, which measures the distance and draws the map of the object.
Using the keyboard and mouse, the operator can issue commands to the robot, from walking to more incremental actions such as opening and closing the three fingers of the robot hand.
In order to moderate expectations of Atlas, the Bureau of Defense Advanced Research Projects described the first event to be held in Homestead in December
The Miami highway was used as a \"preliminary\" test.
The team will compete on a series of separate missions such as driving, closing valves, crossing ruins and climbing stairs.
A year later, they will compete for $2 million in bonuses on more complex missions.
Teams can choose to control their robots manually or program some of their actions to operate autonomously.
However, the team that chooses to control the robot entirely by hand will be punished because the competition jury intermittently limits the amount of wireless network bandwidth, occasionally blurring the controller\'s view of the robot.
Only two months from the first game, the team is racing to program for the robot just to complete the task, not to mention to finish it quickly.
\"We only have two or three months to play with our toys,\" says Chris Atkerson, a professor at the Robotics Institute and human.
Institute of Computer interaction at Carnegie Mellon University, W. P. I.
\"Graduate students usually have five years to do these things.
\"The team\'s success will depend to a large extent on how well they Program robot autonomous skills in the coming months. Mr.
De Donato, for example, said he envied another campus team, which, in partnership with the University of Dreiser, is programming for A Hubo robot.
The team has a complex algorithm designed by W. P. I.
Robot expert Dmitry Berenson enables the robot to close the valve with both arms at the same time.
\"I hope we have that password . \"DeDonato said.
Atlas may shrug-
If you can. But it can't.
It pauses in the lab, waits for the digital command of the controller, and also lacks the shoulder needed for that movement.
