In November, the robotic circle is also full of dynamic: Xinsong's first intelligent old-age robot was released in Shenyang, aiming to advance into the field of “smart robots + home care for the elderlyâ€; and WonderWorkshop, a robot education startup company, announced that it has completed The 41 million U.S. dollars of C-Financing; the Ninth Hubei Science and Technology Forum was held in Han, and Wuhan's company invented the "Pie Che" painting robot attracting the attention of many investors. For more exciting content, please see the detailed report.
Xinsong's first intelligent old-age robot released in Shenyang
At the 8th China (Shenyang) International Endowment Service Expo recently opened, Xinsong Robot Automation Co., Ltd. officially unveiled its first cloud-based intelligent old-age robot, Xinsong Jiabao.
Xinsong “Jiabao†robot can remotely video through the mobile phone APP, and can call one by one, and can also be connected with the watch for 24-hour companionship and health monitoring. In the setting of service functions, it more closely fits the needs of home care for the elderly. For example, in addition to smart care, family interaction, telemedicine, and housekeeping services, “Jiabao†also has strong home guards, environmental awareness, and self-study ability. It also exclusively uses advanced SLAM algorithms and infrared assistance to build the environment. Modules to achieve autonomous walking, obstacle avoidance, roaming and charging. At the same time, Xinsong “Jiabao†also built a top-level speech recognition module that can easily recognize human language within 5 meters and perform voice interaction.
In terms of service model, Xinsong cooperates with the private non-profit social organization Shenyang Dwo Home Care Industry Group, leveraging the service chain of “Robots + Cloud Platform + Big Data + Services†to continuously expand the beneficiaries of smart home care.
Robotics Education Corporation WonderWorkshop Raises $41 Million Tencent Investment
On October 31st, according to foreign media reports, WonderWorkshop, a robotics startup in the San Francisco Bay Area, announced Monday that it had completed a $41 million Series C round of financing.
Tencent Holdings, Softbank Korea, TALEducationGroup, MindWorksVentures, MadronaVentureGroup and VTRONGroup all participated in this round of financing. At the same time, the company’s previous investors also participated in this round of financing.
It is reported that WonderWorkshop raised 20 million U.S. dollars in July 2016 and has already raised more than 78 million U.S. dollars in funds.
WonderWorkshop is unique in that it thinks about robots. The CEO of the company, Vokas Gupta, said that their strategy is particularly effective in ensuring that children do not stay in the “islands†of teaching and bring others into the experience. . Gupta said that the new funds will be used to expand the "global footprint" of existing products, while also investing in the development of future equipment.
WonderWorkshop's programmable robots have been used by 12,000 primary schools in the United States. The company has developed some cool little robots that children can program on their mobile phones to master some basic knowledge of computer science. The start-up company also held its own robot contest to help children master the concept of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics).
An enterprise in Wuhan invents the "Pine chess and calligraphy" robot
Recently, the 9th Hubei Science and Technology Forum was held in Han to connect the production, research and research activities. The robot products recommended by the Hubei Mechanical Engineering Society attracted a lot of investors.
At the scene, it can be seen that four robots, “qin, chess, books, and paintings†developed by Wuhan in need of intelligent technology companies, are arranged in sequence. When someone tries to click on the touch screen on the robot platform, the robotic arm on the robot immediately moves flexibly to realize the performance of the glockenspiel, the four-player chess player, the hundred-nation namewriting, the sand painting, and so on.
The company's responsible person, Zuo Zuofeng, introduced: This series of products was successfully developed last year. It combines modern intelligent robot technology with Chinese traditional culture, and the market has a good response; its parts and components are self-purchasing and assembly, and the accumulation of patented technology allows the company to The customer needs to develop various types of robots such as chess, Weiqi, and military flags; the company will also launch a school education version and a home version of robots to allow intelligent robots to enter the lives of ordinary people.
A hospital in Hangzhou came to a medical doctor
Since the daily outpatient visits of the hospital reach tens of thousands of people, this requires a higher requirement for the configuration and professional knowledge of the guidance staff. In order to solve the actual situation of a large number of outpatient visits, stress in the referral of doctors, and repeated repeated question and answer, under the unified deployment of the municipal health and planning commission, the medical guidance robot Xiaoman was employed. The induction medical doctor robot is an important part of the wisdom of the hospital.
It is reported that Xiaoman can guide patients to seek medical treatment, guide the triage, and at the same time introduce the patient's hospital environment, outpatient treatment procedures, and health care knowledge to the patient. For the location of all departments of the hospital, outpatient building map, 219 common diseases and symptoms corresponding to the department information, traffic and living facilities near the hospital, guide registration and access to more than 300 common inquiries, Xiaoman knows well.
In addition to high face value, Xiaoman can also improve service capabilities through “self-learningâ€. In the near future, medical doctors can also use infrared and temperature monitoring systems to perceive patients in close proximity and actively greet them.
Hefei University of Technology: Successful development of optically-driven "flexible robots"
Recently, Hefei University of Technology cooperated with the Suzhou Institute of Nanotechnology and Nano-Bionics Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to successfully develop a new type of optically-driven jumping robot that simulates the "flicking" action of humans.
The flexible intelligent driver can convert the external energy such as light, electricity, heat, humidity and so on into the mechanical deformation of the device itself without having to pass the cumbersome energy conversion device and has aroused the attention of the international academic community in recent years. The researchers designed and fabricated a carbon nanotube polymer double-layer film driver with a curled shape that can produce rapid and large deformation from tubular to flat shape under low voltage and light irradiation, and can restore the original shape after the external stimulus is removed. . Using a new type of nanomaterial device to create a "flexible robot", the use of light can jump to its own height more than 5 times, with the air rolling.
This achievement has a wide range of applications in smart bionics, flexible sensing and other fields.
