Modern man has been honored to become an eyewitness to the beginning of the era of robots, when artificial intelligence can take on any form, appearance and perform a variety of functions.
What science fiction writers have been writing about for many decades is beginning to become reality. The possibilities of modern scientists working on the creation of such miracle machines both delight and frighten at the same time: after all, we all remember the danger of the uprising of machines, which Sarah Connor warned about during the two parts of the Terminator.
However, despite all the indignation of retrogrades, progress cannot be stopped, and now in the press almost every day there are more and more reports of outstanding inventions that can themselves make diagnoses, conduct small talk, play the role of a pet, and even become a means of obtaining sexual pleasure. pleasure.
Here are 10 of the most amazing robots on the planet.
10 Fly eater robot
Perhaps the purpose of this electronic creation will seem to someone too primitive, and does not justify the efforts and funds invested in its creation. However, this robot is still considered unique in its kind.
The creators of this amusing thing endowed their offspring with a recharging system that has never been seen before: as a power source, the robot consumes fuel cells derived from ordinary glucose.
But where does the robot take this glucose from? The answer is obvious: the device catches insects and processes their organic fragments into sugar.
9. robotocockroach
It is difficult to argue with the fact that not all insects are equally beautiful to the human eye, but this does not mean at all that they are not as unique creatures of nature as we are.
The crown of many months of work by European scientists – a 3-centimeter robot cockroach – has “infiltrated” the community of its natural counterparts and carefully studies their habits through built-in sensors and cameras. What is it for? For the development of world science!
The robot moves with the help of small wheels, and the enzyme obtained from the bodies of living cockroaches, applied to its electronic back, allows it to blend into the crowd.
8. Robo Butterfly ChouChou
This is truly an unprecedented invention of Japanese inventors. It combines the elegance of natural beauty and the high accuracy of mathematical calculation. This fluttering electronic creature looks no different from real butterflies.
7. Paro Baby Seal – Robot Seal
The charter of the vast majority of nursing homes does not allow their residents to have pets. Now this cruel rule can be circumvented thanks to the Paro Baby Seal robot seal, designed specifically for the social rehabilitation of the elderly and people with disabilities.
This machine looks like a baby seal, however, unlike a primitive toy, Paro Baby Seal can blink, move its limbs, rotate its head and make sounds characteristic of a real seal.
He needs to be regularly fed from a special nipple to replenish the energy in the batteries. Owners of these cute electronic animals also need to occasionally put them to bed and do other things to take care of them.
6. Robot dog SpotMini
The appearance of this electronic creature bears little resemblance to a real dog, because this robot does not have fur, a tail waggling with unbridled joy, and even a full-fledged head.
However, this miracle of modern scientific thought can perfectly translate all the habitual habits of four-legged friends: it is quick-witted, perfectly oriented on the ground and knows how to overcome obstacles, and can also interact with its relatives.
5. Robot Einstein
The modern possibilities of robotic design are so great that they made it possible to practically resurrect the outstanding physicist Albert Einstein! Of course, we are not talking about cloning here – we mean its robotic copy.
CCD cameras designed to recognize people are implanted into the head of the electronic author of the theory of relativity, and the naturalistic face of the robot can show a wide range of emotions.
4. Harmony smart sex doll
In this case, in addition to an incredibly realistic appearance, the robot has the ability to recognize faces and remember data about its owner.
Harmony effectively implements all these possibilities in a conversation, creating a complete feeling of a real girl who is needed not only for sexual pleasures, but also for spiritual conversations.
3. Geminoid DK – a clone of a psychologist
This machine was custom-designed in Japan. The robot is a copy of a psychology professor from Aalborg University in Denmark.
Conducting joint lessons with his new electronic clone allows the professor not only to interest students a little more, but also to study the features of the interaction between humans and artificial intelligence.
2. Chinese robot doctor
This electronic doctor managed to successfully pass the exams at the medical school, and get an official medical license. Naturally, a robot doctor cannot yet be considered as a full-fledged alternative to a living doctor, but it can become a very effective assistant!
He is able to quickly analyze all the basic data about a particular patient, process them and issue the most accurate versions of further tactics of medical actions.
1. Android Sofia
This robot is considered to be one of the most popular carriers of artificial intelligence today. It is equipped not only with humanoid thinking, but also with very naturalistic facial expressions.
Sophia, who became famous for jokingly promising to exterminate all of humanity, has by now managed to travel to a large number of countries, obtain citizenship in Saudi Arabia, and even be rude to Elon Musk.
Currently, this android is considered the most advanced model of robots capable of even abstract conversations.
