The next robot or replace human intelligence

By Haven Frbiz

On the island in the Atlantic Ocean, universal robot洛苏姆company to produce the robot to infiltrate into the world. So someone would have predicted the extinction of the human disaster. However, the company's person in charge洛苏姆act not only continue to expand production scale, but also the continuous improvement of robot, so that they have thought. The results of the robot has a sense of resistance, more and more did not listen to orders, and even launched a riot. The face of crisis, engineers decided to burn all the manufacturing of the robot, but this way, human beings have lost their trump card against the robot. Finally the war both sides suffer, apart from the master secret robot engineers, other people were killed; the robot is unable to reproductive aging, gradually reduce the quantity. At the end of the story, hear the Engineer are both the world's last robot laughter, they have access to the human thought and emotion, and even have sex - they become the new Adam and Eve.

This is 1920, the Czech playwright Karel Capek's science fiction drama created - "universal robot洛苏姆Company" in the plot, is also the word robot debut debut. Capek in accordance with robota (Czech: "labor, work hard") and robotnik (Polish: "Worker") created a robot, the robot used to call the play. Later the word was adopted to absorb the language and become a global vocabulary, and develop science-fiction literature. Today, the level of robot manufacturers have long been not stop the development of drama in the sci-fi, scientists have created a wide range of unique features of the robot, a number of international events are also held regularly.

2008 Robot Competition and the RoboCup China Open

2008 Robot Competition and the RoboCup China Open on December 5 was unveiled at Zhongshan, Guangdong, from hundreds of domestic and foreign teams battle at the top here. RoboCup is an international RoboCup robot Open Cup, one of the world's top five tournament, RoboCup robot World Cup is the world's largest and highest levels, the impact of the most extensive robot race and Technology Symposium, held since 1997 since the beginning The annual World Cup of the robot. Event of this competition will be divided into robot soccer, robot arena game martial arts, dance robot race, robot race in the water, air robot race, race and rescue robot, robot simulation game and so on, one of the most talked about and among the most exciting robot and robot soccer tournament martial arts arena.

Events this game apart from a variety of robot, the most concern are the provision of services for the home robot. At present, the robot has entered the home, the market price at 5 million, 5 years after the robot home prices dropped to 2 million is expected, the general popularity of home can be. Families Group at the scene, Shanghai Jiaotong University to pay the long robot is self-introduction: "Hello everyone, My name is cross-long, 120 centimeters tall and weighing 20 kilograms, I will be in Chinese and English languages make .....。" End introduce myself, then with the robot walking at a slow, "master" behind the "kitchen" and "living room" shuttle, the robot behind the screen, clearly making "master" image. At this point, a stranger deliberately staggered with the robot masters, the robot can continue to follow their own "masters" and not with the lost, so that the audience is surprised. Except to follow the master, the family group of the main events include: self-introduction, since the positioning and navigation, manipulation of objects, identify a specific person, lost and looking for technical challenges, as well as seven aspects of race. Researchers of this type of robot to do a careful calculation and design, to the unfamiliar in a particular environment, by going to guide a person, the robot will know how to go, which are used for robot self-localization and navigation technology. This technology can be applied to the supermarket after the guide, as well as the street guide robot. Not only in China, the world of robot technology research and development are endless.

Japanese scientists to create their own robot to work on behalf of a substitute

Engagements, each white-collar workers have had to go off on the road at often a sense of mental and physical exhaustion. If you can comfortably stay at home, remote control robot to go to work instead of their own, and that nice!西罗思- ho Ishiguro is a busy person so he has two jobs, countless meetings and presentations, tight timetable for the timing of his very full, and no leisure. In order to allow themselves a moment leisure, give him a machine to create their own reality, instead of its own job site, or even let it go to the university on behalf of their class, and he just at home in the remote students can communicate with the remote, so removed from the their way of hard work. Professor at the University of Osaka, Japan, and Director of Intelligent robot stability西罗思- Ishiguro-ho to the public display of his "machine a substitute" - "杰米诺德HI-1" No.. Its appearance, expression, motion, voice-ho I like Ishiguro, a lot of people that have it as a real person, just like its maker.

This is called "杰米诺德HI-1" robot is the No. Ishiguro Laboratory ATR-ho led the development of the Group. "杰米诺德" Yes "like twins" means, HI Ishiguro ho is the English name of the first to write letters. The pursuit of realism, the two places at once Ishiguro ho is by his own tailor-made body. Group produced a first-ho Ishiguro facial model, and nuclear magnetic resonance to obtain the shape of his skull data. And the robot made from the same ho Ishiguro 1.75 meters height, which are the bones of steel and aluminum, are silicone skin, hair the first half of stone and ho is really my hair.

Substitute the use of compressed air machinery and small-driven actuators, the body 46 there is free exercise. Substitute machine is based on the internal procedures Ishiguro ho designed the personal habits, whether it is the blink of an eye or a way to roll his eyeballs, all with the same stone and I ho. When the chair to sit on it when, like scanning the room like a real person, it will be the same as normal "wink" to the way a restless, uneasy swing it up and down the legs, buttocks, or move it. When it breathing, but also to raise a little about the shoulder. Action is the width of such subtle, it's hard to believe that it is a machine, seems more like a person wearing a rubber mask. When the machine stand and sit together Ishiguro ho, the people will not know the truth that they are a pair of twins, never be confused as real ones.

British robot like human facial expressions can enrich the dialogue

British scientists have developed the first robot extremely humane "Jules", as it can, as the expression of human facial expressions, lips peristalsis, the natural look is very realistic. The laboratory robot designed by the Bristol robot invention is not the body, only the head, face and it looks like a man is like a woman, realistic feel of skin elastic, built-in video camera head and 34 electron micro-engines, it can automatically simulate a wide range of human facial expressions, his usual broad smile, play a variety of face, with the attendant changes or shallow or deep forehead wrinkles are very realistic, but also a simple conversation. Jules's eyes are a video camera to see people's faces, it will figure into video instructions, and then, through their respective systems and the formation of micro-electronic engine sports expression. The rate of 25 per second so that real-time simulation of robot expressions happen.

The laboratory robot are from the west of England and the University of Bristol University, co-founder, Engineer robot laboratory Hersh克里斯梅尔, O'Neill彼得杰克尔Campbell and three lasted only three and a half years to develop this new type of robot, robot implementation of artificial intelligence to interact with the perfect simulation of human facial expression that can simulate more than ten kinds of human facial expressions, such as happiness, sadness, worry and so on.克里斯梅尔Hersh said: "Jules is rich in expression, when he faces moving up, look very natural, just like people, like the expression."

At Bristol彼得杰克尔robot robot is responsible for the laboratory study of facial expression, he said: "The life-like robot to carry out face-to-face expression of the human-computer interaction is the most important. One day, robots can be become a good helper for astronauts, the elderly partner, in the field of health and education to help mankind. This calls for robot appearance and behavior to match want to meet people's expectations, to finally realize robot applications in these areas. us The study of the robot's facial expression has focused on the real extent, this robot is different from previous studies, it can be said that facial expressions are the most like a person of a robot. "In this regard, from the Joseph Fu County in the University of robot researchers also科尔斯廷too worried about the robot realistic, expressions, action, feel all too much like a real person, the future of robot will be difficult to identify possible sub-true people Machine confusion.

Korean scientists in the next few months to give sex robot

Scientists have created can walk and even run the robot speech, but a scientist from the Republic of Korea decided to study the robot one more big step forward - give the robot sex! The scientists named Kim Jung-hoon, from Korea Research Center, ITRC robot functions, he has invented a series of artificial chromosomes. These artificial chromosomes can be said to allow robot "lecherous" and eventually be able to "reproductive" and achieved self-reproduction. In the coming months, these chromosomes will be installed in a robot body, and this robot will be able to have a perception, logical reasoning and the desire to have a human capacity. Although Kim Jong-hoon admit some of his crazy ideas, but he is not a Frankenstein. 90 era in the 20th century, Professor Jin launched robot soccer World Cup, and now the race has become the most robot researchers welcome the progress of the state of robot Detect grand event.

The next robot or replace human intelligence?

In the sci-fi novels, robot except robot refers to the iron and steel (mechanical men) also includes the so-called "bio-robot," and even the early "human cloning." Broadly speaking, all the non-birth "people" are among the robot. In the real world, robots are not people really want with the form, in order to be able to work more efficiently, and their appearance is often strange. In the context of modern science and technology, robot is "automatic smart machine" that only the generation.

Involved in the early sci-fi robot stories, most of the performance of a concern for the scientific and technological progress: Mankind has created highly intelligent robot, tend to eat their own bitter fruit, to be replaced by robot. This technology in order to reverse the pessimistic views expressed by the end of 1940, the famous science fiction writer Isaac Asimov and science fiction editor John Campbell, for the robot to develop a set of norms and ethical codes of conduct, which is well-known "machines Three people learn the law ": a robot may not harm people, or being injured and stand by with folded arms; two, unless contrary to the First Law, Human robot must obey orders; three, unless contrary to the law of the first and second, the machine the need to protect their own people. From the 1941 science fiction short "reasoning" start, Asimov on "Three's Law" under the framework of creating a series of short science fiction robot. Proficiency in the use of his "law of three", there is probably in violation of the rules of robot under the premise of the story gradually started.

Asimov at an excellent work "200-year-old person" (1976), he expressed this idea most vividly.

"200-year-old person" tells the story of a robot version of Pinocchio Archipelago. This robot has just been created, it showed a remarkable artistic talent. In the following a long period of time, it can be brought to its enormous wealth, and it will use the money to realize his dream - becoming a genuine person. It continues to court to try to identity recognized by law; it will gradually replace parts of the body organ biology until fully into people physiological sense; Finally, in order to allow society to admit that he is a thorough person, it take the initiative to give up eternal life . Lay Dying At the court's verdict has come - "he" finally realized the dream became a real, people have dignity.

Science fiction has always been a dream of mankind of the stage show, accompanied by sci-fi novels and popular movies, more and more people have generally accepted such a future: peaceful coexistence and human robot will assist in the resolution of production and life experience difficulties, and even an alternative to our exploration and development of the territory of the unknown. With such consensus, coupled with advances in modern science and technology, in particular the rapid development of computer technology, the robot is out of science fiction dream into the reality of our lives. However, there is such a statement, the short term, when the robot and there is not enough compared to our intelligence, we can certainly make an order against them, gesticulating, this time we are not to pose any threat. In the long run, however, on the other hand, if there is one day more than their human intelligence, then you said to them, I lose the wrong place, I give to you about, or become our friends, this time they simply will not pay attention to human beings, would like us to keep shooting as mosquitoes die .....。 21 At the end of the century, if we say that there will be World War II, then at that time be able to harm human beings are not necessarily military capabilities, is likely to be a bio-technology, biological weapons, said the robot is therefore a potential danger.
