Later, Wu Hao turned his attention to a more special heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor next to him. No, it shouldn't be called heavy-duty anymore, it should be a light mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor. But compared to the previous two
, this one is very different.
"This armor is quite interesting." Wu Hao praised with a smile.
Chu Tianyou introduced to him with a proud look on his face: "Haha, this is the lightweight mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor we developed. It uses Kevlar and high-strength polyethylene protective armor. It is mainly used for
Equip some logistics support, fire support, or other low-intensity battlefield and mission requirements.
The entire lightweight mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor adopts a split design, and these protective armors can be disassembled and assembled at will to facilitate the performance of a variety of tasks."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, and his eyes couldn't help but look carefully.
The Kevlar and high-strength polyethylene armor on this does not cover all parts of the entire mechanical exoskeleton, but only covers some key parts. This aspect is similar to the heavy body armor style currently equipped by the army, but it is more slim and protective.
The area has also been greatly improved, for example, there are protective panels on the front and sides of the setback.
One of the biggest criticisms or shortcomings of the heavy-duty body armor currently equipped by the army is that it is too heavy and difficult to move. With the support of mechanical exoskeleton, this problem is perfectly solved.
With the support of the mechanical exoskeleton, the wearer or warrior can hardly feel its weight, and with the help of the mechanical exoskeleton, he can move very quickly.
"This mechanical exoskeleton support system has also been replaced with new materials?" Wu Hao asked, looking at the blackened mechanical exoskeleton support system.
Chu Tianyou nodded and replied: "Yes, in order to reduce weight, we use lighter alloy materials. While reducing weight, the strength will not shrink too much.
In this way, soldiers wearing it can adapt to combat in a variety of environments, such as snow, deserts, swamps, and waters. These are areas where it is difficult for heavy mechanical exoskeletons to assist protective armor, and it can move
freely.
And wearing it, you can completely carry out normal armed swimming and normal parachuting, which is something that heavy mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor cannot do."
"Why do I feel like this thing is suitable for airborne troops or marines?" Wu Hao joked, smiling at the two of them.
Meng Changbo smiled and shook his head: "No, the Air Force and Navy don't look down on these things. They have their own plans and requirements."
Wu Hao smiled when he heard this, and then focused his attention on the simpler and most powerful lightweight mechanical exoskeleton assist system next to him.
"This light mechanical exoskeleton assist system really only has a mechanical exoskeleton support assist system. However, it still has a little bit of protection, which is to match this light mechanical exoskeleton assist system.
A protective vest, or body armor.
The back of this lightweight mechanical exoskeleton assist system is also very simple, with only a battery and communication terminal backpack.
This is an ultra-light mechanical exoskeleton assistance system that we specially developed for artillery and other fire support troops, logistics support and transportation troops, and some troops with lightweight requirements.
Its main function is to help soldiers reduce their work intensity. For example, it can reduce the weight of soldiers during the transportation of some heavy goods.
In addition, it also has a certain degree of protection, and the bulletproof vest it matches can protect important parts of the body of soldiers.
Of course, it can also be disassembled directly according to needs and turned into a lighter and ultra-light mechanical exoskeleton assist system."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this and did not comment. In fact, he had said it a long time ago. This ultra-light mechanical exoskeleton assist system also has its place. In fact, many times, the troops do not need that kind of heavy machinery.
Exoskeleton assists in protective armor.
Sometimes it is too heavy and difficult to wear and deploy.
More importantly, the main protective armor of heavy-duty mechanical exoskeletons is too expensive, costing at least one million per set, making it difficult to equip on a large scale.
Therefore, in many cases, this kind of light mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor, or a simple exoskeleton-assisted support system is more suitable.
Finally, Wu Hao came to a rather special mechanical exoskeleton. In other words, it was not a mechanical exoskeleton at all.
Seeing Wu Hao's interested expression, Chu Tianyou smiled at him and introduced him.
This is a humanoid robot developed by our project team based on intelligent mechanical exoskeleton, intelligent robotic arm and other technologies.
"Oh?" Wu Hao's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but look at it again. Its appearance is actually very similar to the heavy mechanical exoskeleton assisted protective armor, but there are also big differences. For example, compared with the heavy and heat-absorbing exoskeleton assisted protective armor
, it looks slimmer and thinner, somewhat like a normal human body.
Moreover, Chu Tianyou and the others also put on a desert camouflage uniform outside, so it looked like a real person. Of course, its exposed metal limbs completely exposed its mechanical body.
From the perspective of the face, the optical lenses and various sensors all over the face look a bit sci-fi, even a bit ferocious.
"Which method is used for control, artificial intelligence or remote control?" Wu Hao couldn't help but ask.
"Currently, it is still controlled by remote control. Although we have also researched artificial intelligence technology, it is not yet mature and has not been used. The main reason is that we are afraid of problems." Chu Tianyou hesitated at Wu Hao, and then said: "Another one
On the other hand, the company also has strict regulations in this regard and does not allow various laboratories and scientific research project teams to conduct research in this field without authorization."
Wu Hao smiled and nodded when he heard this, then looked at Chu Tianyou and said: "Actually, you don't need to worry about this at all. The current artificial intelligence technology is far from reaching the point of having independent consciousness.
The reason why the company prohibits you from conducting research in this area without authorization is mainly because it is afraid of the abuse of this technology. But if it is normal scientific research, it is still allowed.
Of course, we still have to be cautious enough in this regard. This is responsible for society and even the world."
"I understand what you mean, but we have only been involved in this area for a short time. If we want to make a breakthrough, I'm afraid it will take a long time." Chu Tianyou frowned.
Haha, Wu Hao patted his shoulder, then looked at the humanoid robot in front of him and said, "Take your time, no rush, no rush, we have plenty of time."
