On July 15, humanoid robot startup UniXAI released the technical debut of its universal humanoid robot Wanda.
The humanoid robot Wanda in the video can not only grab tender tofu and help humans make tofu soup, but also identify clothes that need to be washed and interact with people in time. In terms of family scenes, Wanda can wash dishes, clean the table, and link the sweeper...
In addition, Wanda can also undertake a variety of operating tasks, provide health diagnosis and advice, etc., and is committed to liberating humans from complicated labor and enabling humans to develop a better quality of life. The end of humanoid robots is "family companionship" to meet emotional needs. Wanda can provide family education, medical monitoring, etc., and provide intimate companionship for family members.
It is understood that UniXAI has gathered outstanding artificial intelligence scientists, robotics experts, etc. from around the world, focusing on the research and development and production of universal humanoid robots (wheeled and bipedal).
It is reported that at the 2024 World Robot Conference, UniXAI will simultaneously launch the world's leading bipedal humanoid robot Martian and wheeled humanoid robot Wanda to the world. The wheeled model will be put into production in 2024, and the bipedal model is expected to be launched in the market in 2025.
In terms of humanoid robot research and development, UniXAI has outstanding advantages. The team has many world-leading research and technological achievements such as the Unitouch tactile large model, which can solve technical problems such as lack of data and long sequences in the generalization process. In addition, all the core components of UniXAI are modularized and self-developed, which not only has obvious advantages in cost, but also lays a solid foundation for large-scale mass production.
UniXAI's self-developed core technologies:
• The most stable gripper, which can be highly adaptive to the scene of grasping and putting down, is backed by the world's first breakthrough unified tactile model UniTouch;
• Self-developed central platform, covering multi-layer semantic expression, 3D environmental perception, fusion positioning, and mobile obstacle avoidance;
• Self-developed humanoid bionic arm, core harmonic reducer, permanent magnet brushless DC servo motor;
• Generalizable motion primitives.
The UniTouch tactile model is equivalent to Wanda's intelligent brain. Through the UniTouch unified tactile model, Wanda can perceive, recognize and identify different objects to accurately handle tasks. For example, handling objects of different shapes and materials, such as glass cups, ceramic bowls, and metal tools; safely carrying fragile and dangerous items to avoid damage or injury; efficiently completing household tasks, such as placing tableware, tidying up rooms, picking up and delivering items, etc.
People have always dreamed of having an intelligent machine assistant like a human. Since the 1960s, the development of humanoid robots can be roughly divided into three stages.
In the early exploration before the millennium, humanoid robots could walk and achieve appearance imitation and simple movement in hand functions. In the subsequent 10 years of intelligent starting stage, humanoid robots have primary perception functions, can interact with the external environment to a limited extent, and have improved freedom of movement.
From 2016 to the present, it is the advanced stage of intelligence. Humanoid robots are equipped with advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computer vision systems, which have improved perception and cognitive functions. They can not only adapt to the external environment flexibly and agilely, but also have general understanding capabilities. At present, humanoid robots have made significant progress in the fields of environmental understanding and intelligent interaction, and the process of generalization and intelligence is accelerating.
From a global perspective, the global competition for humanoid robot research and development is fierce, and many countries and regions have elevated the development of the humanoid robot industry to a national strategic level. my country's humanoid robot research and industry are still in the incubation period, but have shown an accelerated development trend, with a number of internationally competitive humanoid robot companies emerging, and some technological achievements have approached the international leading level.
At present, intelligent manufacturing, commercial services and families are the three most promising application scenarios for humanoid robots. Among them, the intelligent manufacturing scenario will become the first large-scale application field of humanoid robots, the commercial service scenario is the fastest application market for humanoid robots, and the family landing scenario has the most potential.
The first step for the landing application of humanoid robots is to enter thousands of industries, which is already in progress, and in the near future, it is expected to enter thousands of households.
