Humanoid robots: Change accelerates, commercialization begins

T9432 Humanoid robot: also known as humanoid robot, is an advanced platform for the study of human intelligence, and is a complex intelligent machine that integrates machinery, electronics, sensors, control technology, artificial intelligence, bionics and other disciplines. The essence of “humanoid” is that such advanced robots have humanoid perception, decision-making, behavior and interaction capabilities, that is, humanoid robots not only need to have humanoid form and appearance, humanoid perception and sensory functions, humanoid brain thinking and control capabilities, but also need to have “humanoid characteristics” of behavior. The basic embodiment of this feature is the level of balance and control ability of humanoid bipedal movement.

Technology is constantly changing. The first humanoid robot was developed by Ichiro Kato and iterated to the latest humanoid robots, such as Tesla “Optimus Prime”, and the technical route has been iterated many times. In the 21st century, robots are moving toward artificial intelligence, with autonomous path planning and walking capabilities, and rely on more diverse sensors to perceive the outside world, and the motion system is further iterated to a higher degree of integration, while equipped with drivers, motors and sensors.

T9432 Humanoid robot commercialization has begun, such as Tesla, Youbi, Yushu Technology and other humanoid robot manufacturers have released new commercial progress. Tesla released an update video on Optimus on May 5, demonstrating its ability to sort batteries, walk, and perform factory tasks. The industrial version of the humanoid robot Walker S in the new energy plant training; On April 27, the general humanoid robot mother platform “Tiangong” was officially released to achieve a stable running speed of 6km/h. Yushu Technology: May 13 announced the release of Unitree G1, priced from 99,000 yuan.
