Chapter 791 Large multi-tentacle engineering robot
"In addition, we have also scaled up this multi-tentacled robot to help our humans do some heavy work.
This large-scale multi-tentacled robot is like several huge and very powerful arms extended by humans, and can help us complete some impossible tasks."
"Although there are already related construction machinery on the market, such as claw machines, hook machines, excavators, etc., there is not yet a machine as flexible as a human arm.
It can complete these delicate work tasks that traditional construction machinery cannot complete, and its efficiency is several times higher than that of traditional machinery."
"In order to enable it to operate for a longer period of time, we equipped it with a large new lithium battery pack, which can sustain its full-load operation requirements for up to ten hours.
In addition, we adopt a modular design for this large new lithium battery pack, which is very easy to disassemble and replace. If continuous operation is required, you only need to replace one battery module."
"Moreover, in order to further improve its battery life, we have equipped it with high-speed charging technology. The large new lithium battery pack equipped with this large multi-tentacle robot only takes less than eight hours using our high-speed charging technology.
It will be completed.
In other words, under normal circumstances, two of these large new lithium battery packs can complete alternating and uninterrupted continuous construction operations.
This also makes this large multi-tentacle robot very suitable for emergency repair and maintenance work on some large infrastructures."
"Let us list one of the most urgent and fatal emergency rescue scenarios that we see every day.
On a certain highway section, there was a rear-end collision involving several cars. The people in the cars were stuck and it was difficult to get out."
"At this time, rescue forces rushed in and needed to break open these vehicles so that the seriously injured people trapped inside could come out.
The time is very urgent, one minute late may put the lives of people inside in danger."
"There are two options before the rescuers at the rescue site. One option is to use large-scale demolition machinery. However, even if such large-scale demolition machinery is operated carefully, it will still cause injuries to the people inside, resulting in secondary injuries.
The second option is to artificially demolish the building. Manual demolition is more precise, but the demolition and rescue time is too long. It is difficult to rescue the severely injured people trapped inside in time."
"At this time, if we have one of our large-scale multi-tentacle robots, we can dismantle these crashed and deformed vehicles very quickly and precisely, and rescue the trapped people and send them to the hospital for rescue treatment in the shortest possible time.
"
"In the second scenario, we assume that there is a flood rescue front line. There is a breach in the embankment and there is a danger of the embankment breaking. At this time, the embankment needs to be urgently reinforced to block the gap.
Often at this time, it is difficult for traditional large-scale construction machinery to reach the site, and its role is very limited. Especially when transporting sandbags to strengthen the dam, manual transportation and reinforcement are required."
"If we use a large multi-tentacled robot like ours, we can complete relevant emergency and disaster relief work very well.
First of all, compared with traditional construction machinery, our large-scale multi-tentacle robot is very light and is very suitable for helicopter transportation. Even if it cannot be dispatched, it can be transported to the site quickly by pallet truck transportation."
"Secondly, it can be a good substitute for manpower to complete the sandbag reinforcement work of the dam. Especially in the area of neatly stacking sandbags, which traditional construction machinery cannot do."
“Then there is the work of plugging the breach. It is difficult for general sand and gravel to block the rapid water flow, so large stones or cement blocks are required.
Even in an emergency, some engineering vehicles may have to be sacrificed and rushed into the gap to block the rapid water flow."
"For this kind of large stones, it is difficult for general construction machinery to carry them. Traditional cranes are slow to enter the site and run relatively slowly. If we use a large multi-tentacle robot like ours, it can quickly complete the work in the gap.
stone stacking work.
A large multi-tentacle robot like this can lift rocks weighing several tons or even nearly ten tons, and it is very easy to carry. And such rocks can block a rapid breach."
"In addition, this large multi-tentacle robot can also be used for other infrastructure maintenance. For example, a large transformer bank in a community burned down and needs to be replaced urgently.
At this time, the advantages of this large multi-tentacle robot can be revealed. Whether it is removing the burned large transformer set or replacing it with a new large transformer set, it is very convenient.
Similarly, there are some special construction sites, which traditional construction machinery cannot match."
"Is that enough then?"
Wu Hao paused for a while, then shook his head and said: "No, we think this is not enough, this is not perfect enough.
Since it is a robot, it should be more intelligent, which is its biggest advantage over traditional construction machinery."
"So what counts as intelligence? We believe that since it is called a robot, it should have the characteristics of a robot.
First of all, we give it the ability to operate autonomously. In other words, this large multi-tentacle robot can completely achieve unmanned control.
Through our 5G high-speed network, our controllers can control this large multi-tentacle robot in real time from thousands of miles away.
Using our panoramic lenses, smart VR immersive glasses, and our smart sensing gloves, drivers can flexibly control robots thousands of miles away."
"We once conducted a test, thousands of miles away from Anxi to the northwest desert, and let our operators in Anxi control our large multi-tentacle robot to complete the work of threading needles.
The needle is our traditional embroidery needle, and the thread is the thin thread we use to sew clothes. We have completely recorded the whole process with the camera, let us enjoy this short video."
After Wu Hao finished speaking, the video began to play. Two windows appeared on the camera. One was a video of the operator wearing a smart control device at the Anxi control center. The other side was in the northwest desert, where the on-site staff were working
Relevant preparation work was carried out, including inserting an embroidery needle on an apple, and a thin thread was placed on the large multi-grip robot.
This process may seem like juggling, but in fact the accuracy and stability of remote control are taken into consideration. Whether the equipment is stable and whether the remote control can fully grasp the on-site situation will directly affect the accuracy of the control.
At the beginning of the test, one of the tentacles of the large multi-tentacle robot accurately picked up the embroidery needle inserted into the apple.
Then the tentacle holding the embroidery needle and the tentacle holding the silk thread actually moved in front of the camera, and then started threading.
