　　中新网6月10日电 据中国国防科技信息网报道，美国国防高级研究计划局的“Z-人”项目演示了能够帮助士兵在玻璃墙上攀爬的设备。

　　在演示中，重约98.9千克（218磅）的攀爬人员携带22.7千克（50磅）的负重借助一副手持式、模仿壁虎的“壁虎皮”攀爬板在玻璃墙面上向上、向下攀爬了7.6米（25英尺）。该攀爬板由德雷珀实验室研制，采用了创新的聚合物微结构技术。

　　取得制高点有利于士兵获得作战优势，但帮助士兵登高的工具——绳索和爬梯几千年来都未曾变过。这类工具不仅保密性差、耗费体力，而且需依次攀爬，这对第一名攀爬士兵来说风险最高。为克服这些限制，为士兵在密集的城区环境下提供最安全、灵活的机动和快速响应能力，美国国防高级研究计划局启动了“Z-人”项目，旨在开发仿生辅助攀爬技术，使战士能够携带全战斗负荷在普通建筑物的垂直墙面上攀爬。

　　2012年2月，该项目首次演示了人类攀爬技术，目前相关技术仍在测试中。（李雅琼）

US military reveals 'gecko gloves' that let soldiers scale vertical walls

    Dubbed the Z-Man project specialized climbing 'gloves' allow soldiers to climb walls
    Based on a gecko's feet, the gloves are coated with a specialized cloth called 'Geckskin'

Dubbed the Z-Man project, the new, specialized climbing paddles were developed for Darpa by Cambridge Massachusetts' Draper Laboratory. Recently, DARPA demonstrated the latest iteration by having a 218-pound researcher with 50 pounds of recording gear scale a 25-foot tall glass wall.


Geckos can climb on a wide variety of surfaces, including smooth surfaces like glass, with adhesive pressures of 15-30 pounds per square inch for each limb, meaning that a gecko can hang its entire body by one toe thanks to a microscopic hierarchical structure composed of stalk-like setae (100 microns in length, 2 microns in radius). Now researchers hope to create a paddle to allow human s to climb
