Now entering the world is a self-thinking robot that could make humans look inferior. A team of Italian and Swiss engineers have announced that they are building an experimental telepresence robot that will be controlled by brainwaves and nothing else. They explain that this machine is intended to help those people who have severe motor disabilities.
NEW SELF-THINKING ROBOT IS AWESOME
The engineers that are creating this robot have released some details on how this machine will work. The team of Italian and Swiss engineers have acknowledged that this machine will consist of a laptop that will be mounted on a base that is capable of free movement controlled by a skullcap that reads brainwaves. They say how the user can train the robot to recognize movements and react accordingly. The engineers continued by saying that the laptop will come with a webcam and this will let the user see its surroundings and also communicate over Skype with its built-in speakers. It seems like although this machine can think on its own, it will still need human assistance. However, the creators mention how this robot’s controlled software will allow it to decide a future command and that it will be able to avoid all obstacles during the process.
THIS ROBOT CONTINUES TO SHOW HOW GREAT TECHNOLOGY IS
Technology just continues to get better and better as the world continues to grow. It seems like there is nothing that can not be done with technology nowadays. The fact that this technology is being used to assist those in need, is just another plus. Technology is always great for entertainment, but for these engineers to lead a helping hand with those with motor disabilities is phenomenal. This could also lead to future companies and engineers making more advanced robots to help people. The engineers have not yet commented on when their robot will be available, or if it will even be available, but they have mentioned that they are continuing to work on this project each day.
