"美国国防高级研究规划局(DARPA)将于2013年开始一项代号为“Avatar”的研究项目。这个项目注资700万美元,研发可以和士兵有效合作的双足半自主机器人的算法和接口。Avatar机器人将帮助士兵执行清场、警戒和救助伤员的工作。



Could soldiers of the future fight battles in robot bodies controlled from afar? DARPA apparently thinks so, and the agency wants to create an army of surrogate fighting droids.

The U.S. military's research wing apparently is planning surrogates like in the film "Avatar" but with robots instead of giant Na'vi. It has a $7 million program code-named "Avatar" in its 2013 budget, according to Wired.

The robots would reduce risk to human fighters, just as thousands of aerial drones are already keeping pilots out of harm's way.

"The Avatar program will develop interfaces and algorithms to enable a soldier to effectively partner with a semi-autonomous bi-pedal machine and allow it to act as the soldier's surrogate," Wired quoted DARPA as saying.

The robots' duties will include "room clearing, sentry control [and] combat casualty recovery."

If that sounds far-fetched, consider that the technology to control a humanoid robot with a brain-machine interface, while rudimentary, has been around for years, as shown with Honda's Asimo robot.

Meanwhile, DARPA developer Boston Dynamics has also been experimenting with humanoids. Petman is a full-size anthropomorphic bot that's ostensibly designed to test chemical weapons suits. It isn't weaponized, but boy can it put on a mean display of push-ups.

No doubt several hundred Petman avatars mounted on Boston Dynamics' nightmarish AlphaDog robo-mules would inspire enough terror in any foe to win an engagement without a shot fired.

Just send in the robo-cavalry and it's a done deal.http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-57380809-1/darpa-plans-avatar-surrogate-robots/

美国陆军BEAR救护机器人已经进行了一年时间的试验。
这货真Q,设计者是宅男吧
肿么是熊猫脸呢? 不是有JY抗议功夫熊猫的么?
霹雳五号 面具惊魂版
很适合养老院,民间市场巨大
刚刚在隔壁见到了MD开始研究AVATAR人脑操纵机器人的报道。。。。。

切,还以为是这家伙。
名字取得不错,扬基佬真把自己当神了。
到真是个熊样子
肿么是熊猫脸呢? 不是有JY抗议功夫熊猫的么?
抗议的全是FQ好吗?
