Meet 8 amazing robots Festo were inspired by nature
nature has inspired mankind in many ways, even in dreams take flight. Festo, a German company that develops machinery for industrial automation, seeking always to innovate and improve the effectiveness of the products, observes animal movements and try to play as wonderful robots.
At first glance, the mechanical birds and robotic penguins appear to have been made only to fascinate people, but from their movement of the study, new applications are created for heavy and not so lovely machines.
Selected some of the coolest robots developed by Festo. Check out:
BionicKangaroo
A kangaroo uses the tendons of the joints of the hind legs to recover energy from a jump and help others and use the tail as balance in order to maintain the balance. As a result, these animals can reach an enormous speed and keep it for a long period of time.
The BionicKangaroo Festo uses a spring to simulate the tendons of animals and save energy. He is one meter tall and weighs only 7 pounds, but can jump a distance of 80 cm horizontal and 40 cm vertical.
The beads using infrared technology for handling. Ten cameras are installed in the room to save the ball through the infrared markers and automatically transmit the data to a computer.
The data calculated by the computer back to the ball, which implement the actions immediately. This creates a movement and monitoring system, and the idea is that this technique can be used to inspect factories in the future.
