Since the birth of ChatGPT, robots on the road from machines to humans have become more and more like humans. The once cold machines can now not only do what people do, but also speak what people say, have skin that can be touched by people, and can even read people's emotions and have "empathy" with people.
It is reported that the American company Thermetrics and Arizona State University jointly created a heat-sensitive "thermal model" that can simulate human sweating. The model has 35 individually controllable surfaces that can generate heat, shiver, and breathe. When scientists added human functions such as "breathing, sweating, and shaking" to machines, the robot named ANDI was born.
As the first robot that can operate outdoors, ANDI is expected to achieve more tasks that are impossible for humans. For example, experiments can be carried out in previously inaccessible extremely high-temperature environments, and the effects of solar radiation can even be studied.
In response to these properties of ANDI, Arizona State University researchers said they plan to test ANDI in high-temperature-prone areas around Phoenix to observe the response to high temperatures in people of different ages, body types, and medical conditions. Reaction. At the same time, understand different body temperature regulation mechanisms by customizing models for different BMI, age and medical conditions.
Based on these survey data, researchers are expected to tailor more practical solutions for mitigating the health risks caused by extreme heat; develop new ways to protect people from the hazards of heat and improve overall health strategies. This has potential implications for various areas concerned with human health and safety.
Although robots represented by ANDI are constantly getting closer to real people, the goal of robot research and development in the scientific field is by no means limited to a simulated human being, but to assist human beings through empowering machines. Scientific research and development and practice, such as assisting researchers to simulate the impact of different environments on the human body. Moreover, with the continuous advancement and development of science and technology, the future field of robots will not only further improve the degree of simulation, but also expand the boundaries of uses.
Following in the footsteps of ChatGPT, we are not far away from entering a sci-fi world!
