Chapter 195: Anxious Design
There are many types of robots, and Cheng Guoyu wants to build one that can pass the test with Zheng Ying.
He flipped through a lot of information on the Internet.
But it seems, it's all just something online.
So the next day, he went to the Menghai City Library to find information about the development and data of robots.
Among them, robots are divided into two categories in a very general way.
One is this: humanoid robots!
It's humanoid.
One is a non-humanoid robot.
If it is further refined, it is divided into industrial robots, service robots, medical robots, control robots, intelligent robots, and special operation robots......
Wait, lots and lots of them!
But Zheng Ying also said that the ultimate goal of robots is to be humanoid.
If a robot is manufactured to perfection, it can completely replace most of the human labor process.
Except for the little thing that the two are happy, everything else can probably be done.
For example, dangerous climbing, dangerous testing, dangerous exploration and other special operations are left to robots to do.
Logically speaking, the topic given by Zheng Ying now is a tower robot, which is ......
"It's just an entertainment robot!" Cheng Guoyu sighed unhappily.
After all, Zheng Ying also mentioned similar forms of games in ancient times, such as cockfighting and cricket fighting.
In the larger gladiatorial entertainment, there are also bullfights, dogfights!
There are also many groups of creatures in nature that will fight for a certain purpose, such as rams and bulls, tigers and lions, and even orangutans and monkeys.
What is the significance of the manufacture of tower robots?
Cheng Guoyu is not given a clear answer in the book.
But this is a problem that does not need to be solved.
What is said on the Internet and what is said in the book are too one-sided, because Cheng Guoyu is planning to follow Zheng Ying...... I went to the third base.
It is the front end of the earth's technological civilization, and it is too low-level to be taken out of it.
According to Cheng Guoyu's current state of mind, it is not too much to build a tower robot for himself and write a paper of tens of thousands of words.
Although it is an entertainment type, the level of science and technology in it, and the gold content of science and technology, may be worth using in other scientific research directions in the future.
According to this line of thought, Cheng Guoyu wrote a list.
He needed replacement parts with backup tests, light, sound, haptics, and power propulsion components.
At present, the tower robot has three modes of advancement, tires, tracks, and mechanical bionic progress.
Since it's a tower robot, the crawler seems to be a lethal maneuvering setting, and if it's a duel venue, there are a lot of spectators shouting around the gladiatorial arena.
The tower robot travels with crawlers, and it is necessary to prevent the crawlers from being damaged.
Since it is a duel, according to the rules and regulations of the relevant robot competition, it is destroyed until the robot loses power, and there is no "combat" power countdown for one minute.
The motivation to attack the opponent is one of them.
The other is firepower......
Thinking of this, Cheng Guoyu suddenly laughed.
He felt like he wasn't building a robot, but a scaled-down version of a tank.
Tracks, give up! He thought so.
Then the wheel, you have to consider the tumbling design, in case you fall, crooked, or are overturned by the opponent, and can't turn over and re-engage in the duel, then this robot is considered useless.
Therefore, he designed the wheeled way of his robot to be a solid metal wheel without tires, or a design that supports the size of the entire fuselage and can regain its mobility regardless of whether it is rolling at all angles.
There's a term for this, it's called all-terrain marching design!
The so-called all-terrain, that's a bit awesome.
First of all, flat land, no matter what kind of flat land, desert, muddy swamp, mud road, smooth glass, cement road, asphalt road, country dirt road, or rugged mountain road, even if it is a step road, you must take it into account.
The second is the waterway, which is not submerged by the sunken, and even if it is submerged, it can be waterproof.
At the same time, it is necessary to consider what kind of water, whether it is rain, ponds, even turbulent rivers, or turbulent seas.
At this time, Cheng Guoyu, a left-handed man with a developed right brain, thought of a terrible scene!
What if the opponent uses sulfuric acid, aqua regia, or magma, glue, etc., to stop the ability of the robot he designed?
Metal has become a failure again, because most of the metals are unfriendly to strong acids and alkalis.
The average temperature of magma is about 1,000 degrees, so it is necessary to design high temperature resistance.
The adhesive of the glue should also be taken into account how to degum.
In fact, glue and smoothness are two contradictory concepts, one is to increase the friction of electromagnetic force, and the embedded bonding between small molecules; One is that it loses friction and cannot be braked at a fixed point.
Therefore, Cheng Guoyu thought of terrain targeted design.
First of all, his tower robot should be designed as a multi-functional drive wheel.
Hard enough, resistant to high temperatures, and cold-resistant, but also to prevent being locked, to prevent electromagnetic dragging, and to prevent slipping......
Cheng Guoyu thought of so much just the wheel of a tower robot, and in the end, he designed the appearance of a roller universal wheel.
The front and rear are wheels that can be rotated forward and backward; left and right, are wheels that can turn and turn on the spot; Even if it is rolling, the wheels will stick to the fuselage, and the smoothbore support will be made in the form of a circular track.
Then there is the choice of material, in addition to metal, which can withstand high temperatures, there are many alloy systems, and at the same time to insulation, that is, artificial metal. This kind of material finally came up with high-temperature resistant polymer technology, but for the assessment of Zheng Ying's arrival soon after, Cheng Guoyu gave up with a helpless smile and a smile.
The reason is that he can't get that kind of high-grade material.
The second is the powertrain.
A small tower robot is absolutely impossible to use an internal combustion engine! It's also impossible to turbocharge or something, in short, it can't have a combustion chamber.
Because it is too small to carry too much energy fuel.
If you use electricity, then you have to consider the choice of battery, you know, the battery, no matter what the battery, the impact will damage the internal structure, so that it will be scrapped and lose power.
If you use a solar battery pack, what about when there is no sunlight?
Nerve-wracking questions came one after another.
The light sensor is used for visual identification, road conditions, obstacles, opponent identification, etc.
There is also a reason to consider whether it is intelligent, or human-controlled.
Voice-activated can be used as a command, or as a voiceprint to recognize its opponents and the ability to discriminate between the environment.
Tactile sensation is a type of effective judgment when making on-the-spot contact.
In the end, Cheng Guoyu sat directly on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and roared helplessly.
In the library, several people passing by the library area glanced at him and seemed to look at him with disgust instead of being quiet.
"With enough money and a good enough supply of materials, I can build a perfect all-rounder robot! The tower robot is not the ultimate form at all, it is just a small toy! ”
Cheng Guoyu said to himself and stood up angrily.
The money in the bank card, he transferred it out, checked the balance on his mobile phone, and found that he had spent more than 1,000 yuan.
Until now, he has not even decided on the design drawings, and he has not even decided on the appearance and shape of the tower robot he wants to design!
In a corner in the distance, Zheng Ying sat against the wall between two bookshelves.
He was holding binoculars and headsets in his ears, and beside him was a wooden man in a black suit, wearing sunglasses and holding a remote radio, standing rigidly.
Zheng Ying smiled: "Hey, the young man is in a hurry!" Look, that little temper, whether you are a library or not, do you need to be quiet! Anyway, now Lao Tzu is very annoying, just to vent, hahaha~~~"
The cold suit man next to him turned his head and glanced at Zheng Ying.
He didn't speak, just made a gesture of clenching his fist and hooking his index finger.
Zheng Ying waved her hand: "No, no, tell him to toss for a few days!" Well...... But I think he will spend all his money for a while and a half, he is also worried that he will not be able to do things with his money, and he blames himself in his heart! ”
