Chapter 0185: Robot Competition

After Zeng Wei walked for a while, he found that there was a group of people in front of him, and he didn't know what he was doing. So he went up, only to find that there were some foreigners inside, who were manipulating some robots to compete.

There are robots made by several countries inside, which can be seen from the flag icon on the robot. There are Germans, Japan, Britain and France, and Zeng Wei can't figure out which country the other countries belong to.

"What is this for?" Zeng Wei asked a young man next to him who was watching with relish.

"The World University Robotics Competition is now a competition between the Germans and the Japanese. The young man replied.

Robotics competition?

Zeng Wei is not a stranger to this, because in his previous life, when he was studying at HKUST, he heard a lot of news about this, because many students of HKUST are very keen on robot competitions, and HKUST students are also active on the stage of major domestic and international robot competitions, and have good performance.

In addition, there is a robot competition on the campus of HKUST every year, that is, Robogame hosted by HKUST itself, which is very popular with 20 or 30 teams participating each time.

Even, Zeng Wei himself participated once, when he teamed up with a few robot enthusiasts in his class to build a very simple robot, and then signed up for the competition. However, the final results are lackluster, so don't mention it.

………………

Zeng Wei shook his head, shook these thoughts out of his mind, and carefully watched the game in front of him.

As the young man said, the ones who are playing are Japanese and German.

There were about four or five college students manipulating the robot and doing all sorts of movements, and the robot was something like a Transformer, about thirty centimeters tall, the kind that could walk on its own with both feet balanced, but without a shell.

Because there is no shell, you can see at a glance that it is covered with controllers, motors, and wiring, and these robots can do their own without any help, hold their hands on the ground, bow at a 90-degree angle, and jump forward with their feet...... There are many tricks.

The onlookers saw some antics of the robot, and burst into laughter from time to time.

Zeng Wei noticed that while the Japanese and Germans were manipulating, they frowned from time to time, and then wrote down something in their small notebooks, obviously they were in the middle of the battle, to find their own shortcomings and the advantages of the other party, so as to facilitate future improvements as reference data.

The Japanese and Germans are notoriously serious, and this is something that cannot but be admired.

At the same time, Zeng Wei also noticed a strange thing, several classmates were also watching here, but there was no happy expression on their faces, but a worried look, which made people feel strange.

………………

"Oh, buddy, why do you have such expressions? Which school?" Zeng Wei leaned over and inquired.

A student glanced at Zeng Wei and said hesitantly, "University of Science and Technology, are you?"

Zeng Wei smiled: "It turned out to be a senior brother." ”

The student was stunned, with a disbelieving expression on his face, and said in his heart that you are teasing me, you kid looks like a junior high school student at most, and you actually call me senior brother?

Thinking so, he asked, "You are from the high school attached to the University of Science and Technology, right?"

If this guy is a high school attached to the University of Science and Technology, it is barely reasonable to call himself a senior brother.

Zeng Wei shook his head and said, "Senior brother, you guessed wrong, I am not from the High School Attached to the University of Science and Technology." ”

Seeing Zeng Wei say this, the student was stunned for a moment, but then he thought of something and asked, "Are you from the juvenile class?"

Zeng Wei snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Bingo! I'm 96 young, what about you, senior brother?"

The student's expression changed and he said, "It turns out that I am a junior in the junior class! I am a senior in the mechanical department, and I heard that there is a robot competition here, so I came here to see and see." ”

For HKUST students, most of them can be called the pride of the sky, because they are elite talents from all over the country. Because those who can be admitted to the University of Science and Technology, no matter which province or city they are in, or which school they are in, they are definitely the best in their studies.

However, among them, the top ones are undoubtedly the perverts of the juvenile class.

If other students are talents and elites, then the middle of the junior class is definitely a real genius.

"This is a good thing, why do you all look like mourners?" Zeng Wei asked.

When those students heard this, they immediately glared at Zeng Wei angrily, although Zeng Wei was a genius in the junior class, but these words were too hurtful!

After watching him for a long time, someone replied: "Alas, junior brother, you don't know, we are all from the mechanical department, and I feel scared in my heart after watching other people's robot competitions!"

"I don't understand. Zeng Wei shook his head directly.

Why do you say you're afraid? Zeng Wei really didn't understand what they were talking about?

………………

A student pointed to the robot in the competition and said: "This is just a college student's thing, but you see that the robot uses all kinds of accessories, are on behalf of their domestic quite high level of machining technology, every small part must be tightly fitted, every small circuit must be accurate, the arrangement of wires, and the structure of the joints, are carefully designed, these things, in our country is difficult to achieve." ”

Is domestic machining so bad?

Zeng Wei felt a little incredible, but after thinking about it, he recalled that when he visited the Jiangzhou Arsenal, he saw the metal propellers casually thrown on the cement floor, as well as various torpedo accessories, as well as the black electroplating pool, and the silver contacts that everyone casually removed to make jewelry, but he felt that what these students said was not unreasonable.

Moreover, when he was in college in his previous life, that is, about seven or eight years later, he saw this argument on the Internet and was widely recognized.

In fact, such arguments did not gradually dissipate until he was born again. And that was twenty years later, in 2018. At that time, it was the time when the country's national strength was at its peak and its influence in the world was getting stronger and stronger.

Another student continued: "When I saw this, I was scared, scared from the bottom of my heart! I was really scared, this gap is too big, this is the achievements of manufacturing, automatic control, materials science, I hate Japan, so I am afraid." ”

Hearing this, Zeng Wei was somewhat able to understand their feelings.

Only an expert would say such a thing, not like an ordinary person, who laughed after reading it. 8)
