Intelligent Robots Become Little Guards For Epidemic Prevention

"This is an intelligent disinfection robot that automatically sprays disinfectant." A few days ago, Alexei Yagudin of the Russian Olympic Committee team shared a video on social networking sites. In the video, he was chasing the robot that was doing atomization and disinfection all the way, and excitedly introduced the functions of the robot to netizens. At the Beijing Winter Olympics, robots played an important role in epidemic prevention and control, providing services such as patrolling, meal delivery, guidance, disinfection, and waste removal.

In the "Ice Cube" of the National Aquatics Center, a robot performs "all-round epidemic prevention tasks". As a mobile temperature measurement and epidemic prevention supervision robot, it can actively search for personnel according to the prescribed route, patrol back and forth in the venue, and scan the body temperature of surrounding personnel. Earlier, a foreign media released a video. At work, they found that the foreign athlete who greeted it was not wearing a mask, so he immediately stopped his "footsteps" and issued a voice reminder of "please wear a medical mask".

Lock on the target, wave your arms forward, front and back, left and right, the next target... At the door of the "Ice Cube" athlete's locker room, the intelligent disinfection robot skillfully disinfects objects with deep ultraviolet rays. According to reports, when faced with complex objects, this robot can not only recognize its shape, but also independently plan the disinfection trajectory to achieve efficient and accurate disinfection. The excimer disinfection lamp equipped with the robot can emit ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 222 nanometers to disinfect the irradiated air.

As a concentrated expression of scientific and technological innovation achievements, intelligent robots that undertake the important task of epidemic prevention are widely praised. Japan's "Mainichi Shimbun" pointed out that the Beijing Winter Olympics used a large number of intelligent robots to provide services, which avoided human contact and was very efficient. NBC reports that the use of robots in closed-loop venues, these innovations demonstrate the high-tech level of the Beijing Winter Olympics. France's 24 TV station praised it as "a high-tech laboratory showing a vision of the future".
