Boys who are shy in adolescence, if they can have a docile and considerate "female" robot to accompany them to grow up, it is definitely a beautiful youth, even surpassing Doraemon.
In Japan, many artificial intelligence experts are obsessed with the research of simulated robots, and the robot industry is regarded as the lifeline of Japan's rise. The Japanese government has always regarded the robot industry as its own sunrise industry. Guided by the Japanese government for two generations, Japanese bionic robots have made great progress. Perfect humanoid robot is the ultimate goal of bionic robot.
There is really no perfect face value in the world, but when the facial features, figure, voice and personality can be continuously improved or even evolved independently through billions of big data, the perfect "companion" may really appear. Two years ago, Japan launched a "wife" robot, which is being tried out.
Different from many rough humanoid dolls, this "wife" robot has created a "comfortable" face value beyond most women with the help of big data, exquisite simulation means, advanced "constant temperature" system and original "sweating" system, which not only makes its silicone skin almost confusing, but also makes it have its own "body fragrance" and the taste of first love. In the live demonstration stage, this experienced male user tried to hug the robot. After "she" found out, she slowly put her head close to each other's shoulders, like a gentle lover, and the process was very natural and realistic.
Although the "wife" robot is expensive and needs more than100000 yuan, it has aroused great enthusiasm among young Japanese men. Even Japanese experts who have been encouraging the development of simulated robots shouted: "Young people are fascinated by robots, which will aggravate the unmarried infertility in Japan."
With the development of science and technology, bionic robots appear more and more frequently in people's lives. As a powerful country in science and technology, why does Japan position itself as its own sunrise industry and develop it vigorously? What is the reference for China to develop its own science and technology? What's wrong with bionic robots? In this article, we will look at bionic robots. The full text is about 2500 words, and the estimated reading time is 15min. Thank you for reading.
If any country in the world is most interested in robots, it must be Japan. To some extent, in order to develop robots, Japan even delayed the development of other technologies in its own science and technology field. As we all know, Japan's aging is very serious, and it has become a reality for the elderly to take care of the elderly in Japan. In addition to encouraging national fertility, the robot industry has also been highly anticipated by the Japanese government.
The married fertility rate in Japan is actually not low, and many Japanese families have more than two children. The real reason for Japan's population decline is that the unmarried rate in Japan is too high, and nearly one-third of young people don't get married at all. This is closely related to the culture of the younger generation in Japan. In the last century, Japan became the second largest economy in the world with the economic and technical support of American Big Brother and the demographic dividend of the postwar baby boom. Then, he became big brother Ye and defeated big brother Ye. The backhand of the United States was sanctions, and Japan was forced to sign the Plaza Treaty, and even the thriving national luck was gone.
Some things are hard to change. The "lost thirty years" has had a serious impact on Japanese young people and formed a strange culture. And unlike their predecessors, there are many people lying flat. In order to relax, many young people in Japan will not get married. The natural birth rate has dropped sharply. Who will supplement the previous demographic dividend? The robot industry has high hopes. Since 1990s, Japan has been aiming at bionic robots. I hope this will develop and solve the problems of young people and old people in our country.
Bionic robots are not just humanoid robots. There are tens of millions of creatures on the earth, each of which has undergone hundreds of millions of years of adaptation, evolution and development, which makes some parts of the creatures very wonderful, and their biological characteristics tend to be perfect and have the most reasonable structural characteristics. Learning from nature and creating bionic robots with superior performance have become the lifelong research direction of many scientists.
Bionic robots are mainly divided into land bionic robots, air bionic robots and underwater bionic robots.
(1) land bionic robot
In nature, land creatures move in various ways. Correspondingly, there are many kinds of motion modes of land bionic robots. According to the movement characteristics, land bionic robots can be divided into humanoid robots, bionic multi-legged mobile robots, bionic snake robots and bionic jumping robots. Japanese wife robots naturally belong to humanoid robots.
With the development of control theory, intelligent humanoid robots are becoming more and more perfect, and many human activities can be replicated. As early as 20 13, the "Atlas" robot developed by Boston Dynamics Company in the United States was able to stride forward on the conveyor belt, avoiding the sudden appearance of wooden boards and taking off smoothly. Another "Petman" robot used for US military inspection successfully regulates its body temperature, humidity and perspiration, and protects itself by simulating human physiology.
Another direction of humanoid robot is the study of humanoid arms and fingers. In space exploration, every space station is inseparable from the mechanical arm, which is also a kind of humanoid robot. Humanoid robots in China started very late and really flourished in the last decade. However, the technology is not backward at all, even catching up in many aspects.
(2) bionic robot in the air
Bionic robots in the air mainly imitate birds and insects. Don't underestimate these animals. Although humans can fly by plane and even fly into the universe, have you ever thought that this way of flying is perfect? Why has this way of flying never been seen in biology?
After hundreds of millions of years of evolution, birds and insects have constantly adapted to the earth's environment, and reached a nearly perfect level in terms of shape, movement mode and energy utilization. Unlocking its secrets is a new idea to make the perfect plane.
At present, the research of bionic robot in the air is still in its infancy. Although it can fly, but the time is short, the distance is close, and it can't even leave the remote control, so its practicability is not high.
(3) Underwater bionic robot
The main environment on earth is water environment, and the application prospect of underwater bionic robot is very broad, which has great potential value. At first, it started from imitating fish swimming, using motor control to realize propulsion through swinging, and now it has developed into a new bionic material and a new bionic driving mode to realize propulsion.
China's underwater robots have developed very fast, and now they can realize a variety of underwater movements such as quick start and turning. Many technologies have become dominant, but they still can't compete with biology in terms of propulsion speed, efficiency and drag reduction, and there is still a lot of room for development.
There are many kinds of bionic robots, and each type of robot will encounter its own bottleneck, but bionic robots have some common problems, specifically
(1) The research on new bionic materials with high performance is insufficient, and the materials with excellent properties such as biological drag reduction, wear resistance, anti-fatigue, anti-adhesion and self-cleaning lack the connection point between biomechanics and engineering mechanics.
(2) The control method is more traditional, and the breakthrough of bionic methods such as neural control and EMG control is not enough. The biological control of self-coordinated motion is not in the same dimension as the general electromechanical control.
(3) The mechanism of biological energy conversion is not deeply studied, and the energy conversion efficiency is low. Artificial simulation robots often need a lot of energy, and the conversion rate of these energies to organisms is extremely high, and the two are not in an order of magnitude at all.
Bionic robot technology is widely used in all walks of life. Although it is still in the stage of reserve development, some clues can be seen in the future development trend.
(1) microscopic development
The future of bionic mechanism research is microscopic. Although humanoid robots are becoming more and more real, the real birth of a docile and considerate companion robot must be achieved after the breakthrough of micro-development.
(2) All steel has become soft fingers.
At present, bionic structures are mostly rigid structures with obvious mechanical style, which is the embodiment of traditional materials in bionics. But in the future, traditional materials will inevitably develop in the direction of integration of structure, drive and materials, and all steel will become soft fingers.
(3) Neuron control
At present, bionic control is mostly electromechanical, which is not only inflexible, but also greatly reduces the conversion efficiency of biological energy and mechanical energy. Transforming the traditional control mode into neuron control is the real way out for bionics. The study of bionics may go deeper in the future. It can not only solve the problem of aging population, but also produce research results that benefit mankind in all aspects of life.
