Humanoid robots, also known as humanoid robots.

It refers to the robot designed and manufactured to imitate the form and behavior of human beings, which is a humanoid robot, which generally has humanoid limbs and a head separately or at the same time.

It can be said that since the concept or idea of robots, human beings have always been eager to create such a humanoid robot.

It has the same body and shape as us humans, with skin, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, ears, and even body temperature.

They are as flexible as humans and more intelligent than humans, and should have an independent sense of self.

Of course, this is a beautiful imagination of people, and almost in everyone's first impression, robots should be like this.

Many film and television dramas are also tirelessly shaping the image of robots in everyone's minds, and the classic robot characters in these film and television works have also become the appearance of robots in everyone's minds.

However, it is difficult to build such a robot with the current technology on Earth.

There are many types of robots, which are generally designed into different shapes according to different application needs, such as industrial robotic arms, wheelchair robots, walking robots, etc.

The research of humanoid robots integrates mechanical, electronic, computer, materials, sensors, control technology and other sciences, which can be said to represent the high-tech development level of a country.

Judging from the research status of robotics and artificial intelligence, there is still a long way to go to fully realize highly intelligent and flexible humanoid robots

Moreover, humans do not have a thorough understanding of themselves, let alone build such humanoid robots.

At present, the best in humanoid robots should be Waguo, as well as Boston Dynamics from the United States.

The country may have a strong XX cultural influence with itself, so it is mainly engaged in the research of humanoid robots, and the robots to be manufactured are as realistic as possible. Especially in the area of micro-expressions and artificial skins, the country has always been in the forefront.

As for Boston Dynamics, the company's big names will know about it if they care a little bit about technology.

This is a technology company specializing in robotics research and development, and it has launched many very amazing robot products, such as the first robot mule, robot dogs, and the amazing Atlas robot.

The Atlas robot is a high-fidelity humanoid robot developed by Boston Dynamics, which is similar in appearance to human limbs, and can simulate human body movements, such as walking, running, long jumping, heightening, and even actively avoiding obstacles, or stepping over obstacles. What's even more jaw-dropping is that it can do backflips, which even ordinary people can't do.

This Atlas robot is naturally strong, and it does a very good job in terms of posture control and limb movements, as well as balance.

But that's all, that's just the basis of humanoid robots, so to speak, the basis of the basics.

Not only do we want this humanoid robot to be able to move as flexibly as a normal person, but we also want to make something that a normal person can't do. Moreover, it must have the ability to think like or even surpass people.

In this way, it is very difficult.

Wu Hao: In fact, they have been developing in this area and have been accumulating related technologies. For example, their intelligent robotic arms, intelligent bionic electronic prosthetics, intelligent mechanical exoskeletons, including the intelligent graphic recognition technology used in drones, and even the earliest intelligent voice assistants, etc., etc.

These can be applied to humanoid robots, but these are not enough, this is a very complex systematic project, and further in-depth research is needed.

In addition to the basic aspects, Wu Hao and all the companies and scientific research teams engaged in the research of this humanoid robot are also being tested by ethics and morality at all times.

Whether robots should be self-aware or not is also a matter of debate around the world. Of course, as a technology company, in line with the principle of responsibility, Wu Hao has always been very conservative in this regard, that is, the company prohibits any unapproved research work on the self-awareness of artificial intelligence.

Research in this area must be cautious before human society is ready, and people are not ready to accept the emergence of this kind of robotic class.

Of course, in addition to this strong artificial intelligence, scientists have now proposed a weak artificial intelligence, which is widely used in the industrial field.

What is weak artificial intelligence, refers to those intelligent machines that cannot make real reasoning and solving problems, these machines appear to be intelligent, but they do not really have intelligence, and they do not have autonomous consciousness.

In other words, it's an intelligent machine with no self-awareness, obedientness, similar to the computer or mobile phone that we still use today.

Scientists have also applied this weak artificial intelligence to this humanoid robot, trying to create a humanoid robot that can understand human instructions and can fully obey them, replacing human work.

At present, a lot of work is being done in this area. For example, the aforementioned Wa Kingdom, they have been engaged in research in this field, striving to be able to create humanoid robots that can be fake and real in terms of appearance, and even in terms of activities and micro-expressions.

The experts of the Wa Kingdom hope that this realistic humanoid robot can replace humans for some work. For example, service jobs, working as a hotel restaurant waiter, a domestic nanny, or even a personal partner, etc.

As for the related companies in the United States, they have been committed to the research on humanoid robots, or the militarization of such intelligent robots.

For the people of the United States, in addition to stocks, the most profitable thing is arms. Therefore, the most advanced technology is often used in the military. And for a country that likes to fight and war, it prefers to win every war and win it at the lowest cost.

And this humanoid robot can be a good substitute for the soldiers of the Mi Army and put into battlefield combat, so it attaches great importance to this part. Many well-known robotics research companies have funding from Mi Jun.

As for our domestic ones, we have been committed to the research work of industrial robots. As labor costs continue to rise in our country, companies have been working on this kind of robotics that can replace workers. Therefore, it has always been at the forefront of society in this regard.

It's just that in terms of humanoid robots, the attention is far from enough, and it may also be related to the huge investment in this project.

For Wu Hao and his family, this project has a huge investment, and it definitely requires a long investment research cycle, and it is difficult to see relevant results in a short period of time.

However, as Wu Hao said, there is no need to rush this matter, take your time.
