Chapter 401 Automated Machinery Technology Research Laboratory
As the temperature continues to increase, Anxi has gradually entered summer.
The flowers have receded and the green leaves are forming shade. The employees, who have just finished the May Day holiday, are now engaged in tedious work with high spirits.
After finishing the related cooperation with other companies, Wu Hao finally got rid of the tedious things. Of course, the matter is far from over, and in June, they will usher in a new summer new product launch conference.
However, Wu Hao left all these matters to Zhang Jun, and he immersed himself in some projects that were being developed.
There is a newly renovated park next to the fourth building of Haoyu Technology. This park is basically the same as the park where their original four large villas are located. They are both composed of four large villas with four to five floors.
Form office building composition.
After the relevant administrative and marketing departments of Haoyu Technology were moved to the high-rise office building next to it, the original four-building campus was basically handed over to the R&D department.
With the increase in various projects in the R&D department, the number of R&D personnel is also increasing, and now it has reached more than 3,000 and nearly 4,000 people. This is just here, not counting the project R&D team members in other branches.
With so many people, the original four-building park was definitely not enough, so it was gradually dispersed to some small parks in the surrounding area, and some information and software project research and development teams were placed in high-rise office buildings.
Compared with high-rise office buildings, everyone actually prefers this kind of low-rise park. Therefore, several parks around the original four-building park were rented by Wu Hao and others and turned into specialized R&D laboratories.
The park located next to the original fourth building is a scientific research building belonging to the hardware R&D laboratory. In fact, there is no so-called hardware R&D laboratory anymore. The original hardware R&D laboratory has been split into more than ten
Special research laboratories. These include microelectronics, mechanical engineering, new materials, new energy, chemistry, and a series of project R&D teams involving such hardware and basic research.
These project R&D teams usually manage independently, conduct independent research, and do not interfere with each other. Only when needed for related projects will relevant personnel be transferred from various research laboratories to form a project R&D team.
This includes the R&D project team, or special R&D laboratory, related to the smart home robot HS_2 they launched at the press conference some time ago.
The exact name of this laboratory is the Automated Machinery Technology Research Laboratory, and its main task or main job is to develop automated machinery products.
What are automated mechanical products? This covers a wide range, such as the smart home robot HS_2 they launched some time ago.
However, this product is not their main product, or it is just a derivative of their related research projects.
At this point, perhaps everyone has understood that this automated machinery technology research laboratory is a steering laboratory established by Wu Hao to develop robotics-related technologies.
This laboratory was established very early. It was initially just a research and development team of a few people. After their smart home robot HS_1 achieved good results in the market, the team also expanded rapidly and now has reached
There are more than eighty people.
Of course, this is not the only laboratory engaged in robotics research. There is actually another laboratory, but it is mainly focused on artificial intelligence, that is, AI research.
Compared with the artificial intelligence research laboratory that focuses on system information, this automated machinery technology research laboratory is mainly responsible for research on automated machinery.
To put it simply, one is responsible for the research and development of the robot brain, while the other is responsible for the research and development of the robot body hardware.
The main task of this automated machinery technology research laboratory is to develop hardware projects for flexible robot 'bodies'.
The two laboratories are independent of each other, cooperate with each other, and even compete with each other. Wu Hao is the general person in charge of these two laboratories, and is the glue and coordinator between them. He is responsible for presiding over these two laboratories.
related research and development projects.
Because the entire project is very large, time-consuming and labor-intensive, Wu Hao also formulated a very detailed long-term development plan for this purpose.
In order to participate in the air show held in Zhu City this fall, Wu Hao and his friends, who were participating in the exhibition for the first time, had to come up with one or two products that could hold their own.
Although they have developed a series of civilian and police security drones, this is not enough, so Wu Hao hopes to come up with a device that is eye-catching enough before participating in the air show.
So he focused his attention on this remote-controlled intelligent manipulator. To put it bluntly, it controls the manipulator to work through remote control operation.
This technology is actually not new. It has been used in many exhibitions and even in some industries. However, these products are very rudimentary, move very slowly, and have a very limited scope of application.
What Wu Hao and the others developed this time is a smart robotic arm that can be controlled in real time. Simply put, it uses wearable devices to synchronously transmit the movements of human hands to the robotic arm to achieve real-time control of the robotic arm.
This technology is also a cutting-edge field that the world's major military powers and some technology giants are competing to study, and its application prospects are very broad.
For example, the strength of our ordinary people's arms is very limited, and it is basically impossible to pick up a heavy object. If we control the robot hand, we can lift the heavy object very easily.
It can also be remotely controlled, allowing people to stay away from the scene and avoid danger.
Because the manipulator is very flexible and can be said to be as flexible as a real hand, it can be used for some delicate operations. For example, experts in large hospitals in big cities can use this set of manipulators to perform remote surgeries, which can operate
The flexibility and flexibility are far more convenient than current remote control technology.
Or, using this kind of manipulator, we can remotely control it to dismantle some dangerous devices to avoid personal injury.
Alternatively, we can use this kind of manipulator to perform precise operations in areas that we humans cannot reach. Such as equipment repairs on the deep seabed, operations in space environments, and precision operations in tiny spaces, etc.
It is also widely used in the military field, which means that you can have a pair of hands that are very flexible and capable of carrying heavy objects, used to load some large weapons and ammunition, or to repair some large weapons and equipment.
Or use its remote control feature to remotely control some weapons and equipment to reduce personnel sacrifices.
