At night, I'm in a submarine, I have force-feedback gloves, and I could delicately set up a lab in the front of my submarine, where the squishy
robot
fingers are delicately collecting and putting things in jars, and we can conduct our research.
Now, would you change your answers if you learned the composer was this
robot?
Pleurobot is a
robot
that we designed to closely mimic a salamander species called Pleurodeles waltl.
So you might ask, why did we design this
robot?
And in fact, this
robot
has been designed as a scientific tool for neuroscience.
The
robot
can be a wonderful scientific tool as well.
And here, a
robot
becomes an interesting tool to validate our models.
Why not have a real
robot
and real physics?
And then our job as roboticists was to replicate that in our
robot.
Our
robot
is much bigger than a small animal, so we had to do what's called dynamic scaling of the frequencies to make sure we had the same interaction physics.
And we tested that on board of a
robot.
So what you see here is a previous version of Pleurobot that's completely controlled by our spinal cord model programmed on board of the
robot.
And the only thing we do is send to the
robot
through a remote control the two descending signals it normally should receive from the upper part of the brain.
So this is Peter Eckert, who does his PhD on this robot, and as you see, it's a cute little
robot.
To the extent that we can even disturb a bit locomotion, as you will see in the next video, where we can for instance do some exercise where we have the
robot
go down a step, and the
robot
will not fall over, which was a surprise for us.
I was expecting the
robot
to immediately fall over, because there are no sensors, no fast feedback loop.
But no, just the mechanics stabilized the gait, and the
robot
doesn't fall over.
And the big dream is to, if you have a difficult situation like a collapsed building or a building that is flooded, and this is very dangerous for a rescue team or even rescue dogs, why not send in a
robot
that can crawl around, swim, walk, with a camera onboard to do inspection and identify survivors and possibly create a communication link with the survivor.
We got so geeked-out on making WALL-E this convincing robot, that we made his binoculars practically optically perfect.
Now, glassy-eyed is a fundamentally awful thing when you are trying to convince an audience that a
robot
has a personality and he's capable of falling in love.
So we went to work on these optically perfect binoculars, trying to find a solution that would maintain his true
robot
materials but solve this reflection problem.
We bring that light back to bring the aperture blades back, and he returns to that sweet, soulful
robot
we've come to love.
So far we've been looking to this new piece of mechanical technology or that great next generation
robot
as part of a lineup to ensure our species safe passage in space.
And although it's a wonderful little space robot, these days it's kind of like a used car.
There's even a freaking laser, so you can make a cool
robot
into an awesome
robot.
There was a day, about 10 years ago, when I asked a friend to hold a baby dinosaur
robot
upside down.
So we're watching the theatrics of this
robot
struggle and cry out.
And then I pet the
robot
to make it stop crying.
But my response to this
robot
was also interesting because I knew exactly how this machine worked, and yet I still felt compelled to be kind to it.
Why did I comfort this
robot?
