00:30We can not avoid including in our selection the company X-Robots,
00:35leader in research and development of intelligent humanoid robots in China.
00:40It also maintains a position of global leadership in the production of bionic skin
00:45and the possibility of mass production of bionic robots.
00:49The company combined humanoid robots and metaverse technology
00:53to create the Science and Technology Museum project of the future, EIX.
00:59The company recently presented humanoid robots,
01:02updated that resemble the scientist Albert Einstein
01:06and the Taiwanese pop singer Teresa Teng,
01:09as well as a compassionate robot and an avatar robot.
01:13The most interesting exhibition was an avatar robot
01:16that copied one of the employees of the company.
01:19It uses a camera to analyze human movements
01:22and facial expressions and repeats them.
01:25According to the developers, another robot was created
01:28to understand human emotions and react to them accordingly.
01:33The anthropomorphic robots of X-Robots
01:36have up to 140 degrees of freedom throughout the body
01:40and are equipped with the ROS operating system developed independently.
01:46The torso and limbs of the robot are controlled by dozens of flexible actors,
01:52which makes their facial movements and expressions more realistic.
01:59Meet Asuna, a hyper-realistic robot that looks like a human.
02:04The robot was first shown in 2015 during the Miracles Festival.
02:09According to the creators' legend, it is a 15-year-old girl born in Tokyo.
02:15The developers tried to copy as much as possible the appearance of a person and their movements.
02:21The material from which Asuna's skin is made
02:24is almost indistinguishable from the touch of human skin.
02:27Asuna can blink, feel with her head, close her eyes,
02:32chew and show various facial expressions.
02:35Japanese robotic dolls have been famous for their realism for a long time,
02:41but Asuna's uniqueness lies in the special nature of her movements.
02:46When she closes her eyes and opens her mouth,
02:48it seems as if she is about to sputter, like a living person.
02:53During the presentation of the robot,
02:55one of the event's correspondents approached the A.Lab window
02:59and confused Asuna with a real person.
03:05Yamaha has presented a robot called Motobot that can control a motorcycle.
03:11The robot was presented at the 40-Hour Degrees International Motor Show in Tokyo.
03:16At the same time, a robot called Motobot controls not only a standard motorcycle,
03:22but also a quite powerful model, a Yamaha YSF-R1M 1-liter sports car launched in 2015.
03:31The robot uses all the basic controls of a motorcycle
03:35and can accelerate, brake, change gear and turn.
03:39The first version of Motobot accelerates up to 100 km per hour.
03:44The company plans to continue developing the project
03:47and get the robot to move at speeds higher than 200 km per hour without auxiliary structures.
03:55The company has been working for several years on the creation of a robot
03:59capable of driving standard motorcycles on the track.
04:03Unfortunately, little is known about Motobot.
04:07It is only mentioned that driving a motorcycle at high speeds
04:11requires the coordinated work of many complex and high-precision systems.
04:16Naturally, the company's research goal is not to create robots that drive motorcycles instead of people,
04:24but to develop a pilot assistance system similar to the common assistance systems
04:29found in all modern cars.
04:33Although it is possible thanks to the development of robotics,
04:36in the near future the company will think of creating a universal humanoid robot that can transport people.
04:45We all know the Ameca robot, which, according to the developers,
04:49is the one that is closest to the collective vision of what humanoid robots will be like in the future.
04:54But Ameca is far from being the first hyper-realistic robot launched by Engineered Arts.
05:00In recent years, the company has created a line of realistic Mesmer robots,
05:05each of which is designed and built based on 3D scans of real people,
05:11which allows developers to convincingly imitate the bone structure,
05:16skin texture and human facial expressions.
05:20However, the Mesmer robots look much more sinister than Ameca with its transparent plastic skull.
05:27What do you think of the concept of future robots from Engineered Arts?
05:31Write in the comments.
05:35This monstrous mechanical snake, called Titanoboa, weighs more than a ton
05:41and its creators plan to cover it with a thick layer of skin,
05:45thanks to which it can move underwater.
05:48This is what the creators of this 35-legged snake robot wrote.
05:54The Titanoboa project is the implementation of alternative forms of engines and energy solutions
06:00in the field of mechanics.
06:02The purpose is to demonstrate the use of the fascinating movements of the snake in this experiment.
06:08When looking at this robot, one has the feeling that it is images from a science fiction movie.
06:15The name Titanoboa for the mechanical robot snake was not given by chance,
06:21but in honor of the largest snake, whose remains were discovered by archaeologists.
06:27The length of this robotic snake is about 11 meters,
06:32but perhaps in the future it will expand to 16 meters.
06:39The Megabots Mark III robot is a powerful and impressive giant combat robot
06:45designed for competitions and shows of the genre of giant robotics.
06:50Mark III has a solid metal body,
06:53which is a combination of a frame made of durable alloys and a protective armor.
06:59It is flexible and maneuverable enough to cope with various combat conditions.
07:05The dimensions of the robot vary according to the specific model,
07:09but in general the Mark III measures about 5-6 meters in height.
07:14The robot is equipped with an advanced electromechanical action system
07:18that allows it to perform fast and precise movements.
07:22The robot is controlled by a remote control or by software
07:26that allows the operator to control its movements, attacks and functions.
07:31The Mark III has a variety of weapons, including huge mechanical arms
07:36capable of lifting and manipulating various objects.
07:39It can also be equipped with various types of weapons,
07:42including energy swords, rocket launchers and small weapons.
07:46In addition to its combat capabilities,
07:48the Mark III is a real attraction that can catch the attention of the public at any event.
07:54It can perform various acrobatic feats,
07:57demonstrate its strength and flexibility and also participate in epic battles with other robots.
08:06How can we not remember the well-known robot Kaleido from Kawasaki Heavy Industries?
08:12After its debut in 2016, the robot has already evolved to the 7th generation.
08:17The 2nd generation approximately defined the current set design,
08:22while the 3rd and 4th generation focused on weight reduction and reliability.
08:28In the 5th and 6th generation, Kaleido received an incorporated battery controller
08:33that allowed the robot to work independently.
08:37The latest version, which measures 168 cm high and weighs 54 kg or 120 pounds,
08:45was presented to the public at the World Robots Fair 2022 in Japan,
08:50which we presented in one of our previous videos.
08:53The company now focuses on commercialization and natural and sustainable hiking.
08:58Kaleido is positioned as a rescue robot.
09:01It can lift up to 60 kg or 132 pounds,
09:05which gives it the necessary strength to save a person.
09:08A robot can also work in the hostel,
09:11performing manipulations with an even greater precision than a human.
09:15Based in Kaleido, the company developed the robot FRIENDS,
09:19designed to care for older people,
09:22since the problem of population aging in Japan is still serious.
09:28Researchers at Stanford University have presented a new version of a submarine dive
09:35controlled by an avatar called Ocean One Eka.
09:39The robot is manufactured with an atypical humanoid factor.
09:43The main feature of the new product is its high maneuverability,
09:48the ability to work at a depth of approximately 1 km,
09:54the presence of a tactile feedback system and a stereoscopic vision.
10:00As part of the tests, the researchers examined the Spanish steam Le Francesco Crispi,
10:06which sank to a depth of 500 m.
10:09Most likely, the Ocean One systems can be used for inspection and repair of submarine installations,
10:17ship inspection and all kinds of infrastructure.
10:20Obviously, the robots will also be dedicated to submarine archaeology,
10:24as well as to inspect sunken ships.
10:29Sanctuary also tries to surprise the Internet with a video of its robot.
10:34The company's website states that its goal is to create a universal humanoid robot with human intelligence,
10:42which, as we know, is an incredibly ambitious goal
10:46that no group of scientists in the world has been able to achieve yet.
10:50The Sanctuary videos, in which the robot performs a mirror test or carefully collects flares,
10:57look pretty good, if not for something.
11:00The company does not reveal exactly how the robot performs the actions
11:04and says nothing about the advances made in the field of artificial intelligence.
11:09On the other hand, it is known that the robot has an avatar mode,
11:13which is supposedly used to train, but it is unknown if the video robot does something on its own.
11:19There is a high probability that the robot can no longer do anything at all.
11:24However, the startup recently received 100 million dollars from the Canadian government for research.
11:31Let's hope the company can make all its ambitious ideas come true.
11:37Humanoid and industrial robots are beginning to move more and more people from their workplaces.
11:45Another proof of this fact is the appearance of a new Japanese miracle,
11:50an incredibly realistic android robot called Kodomoroid.
11:55And this robot is capable of acting as a news anchor on television,
12:00reporting the news as they arrive in real time in an impeccably perfect and fluid Japanese.
12:07It should be noted that the abilities of the Kodomoroid robot's announcer
12:11significantly exceed the requirements of the live speakers who work on Japanese television.
12:17Soon another realistic robot will join the Kodomoroid robot,
12:22Otonaroid, which will already look like an adult.
12:25The Kodomoroid and Otonaroid robots are the creation of the Japanese professor of the University of Osaka, Hiroshi Ishiguro,
12:33known for his numerous works in the field of the creation of realistic robots.
12:41This robotic arm is capable of transmitting tactile communications over thousands of kilometers.
12:47By remotely controlling a robotic arm, this task can be greatly simplified.
