Description
The robot is currently in the concept demonstration stage. When working, users can control the robot”s
manipulator by moving their eyes. When using it, people only need to look at the chessboard with the
same physical layout on the screen in front of them, and move by looking at specific parts on the board and the physical parts of the robot hand.
One of the significances of this invention is that it can help paralyzed patients who have difficulty
moving their hands play chess.
As shown in the picture above, the robot has a white body, a camera on the “head”, and black key
robotic arms. It has multiple degrees of freedom and can move flexibly after receiving instructions.
The robot”s hand has two “fingers” that can complete actions such as holding chess pieces, cooperating
with the arm to move to the command position, and playing chess.
Providing eye control software support for the project is Spanish technology startup Irisbond.
The company”s eye tracking technology is mainly based on infrared eye tracking technology, which uses a
camera to shoot infrared light to the user and analyze the changes in the reflected light from the user”s eyes.
In terms of application, this technology can not only be used to play chess
, but also help disabled people communicate with the outside world through eye control.
Swedish automation giant ABB is building a “future factory” in my country to use robots to manufacture robots
According to comprehensive media reports, Swedish automation giant ABB invested US$150 million to build a
“future factory” in Shanghai, scheduled to be completed in 2020. It is a factory that “makes robots with robots”,
but the cutting-edge robot technology it produces cannot meet demand . , which in turn will feature “collaborative automation
solutions” (called cobots), allowing robots to work with humans rather than replace them.
China will promote the automation strategy characterized by this and thus reshape the world robot
market. The picture shows a customer service robot being inspected at a factory in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province on December 4, 2018.
