Monkey monkeys will land on the moon

The Center for Research in Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) and the University of Bremen, Germany have successfully developed space robots that can walk and climb like monkeys. Monkey monkeys will be landed on the moon, continuing to carry out research projects.

DFKI engineers say the monkey robot, iStruct , weighs 18kg and has hand, foot and mechanical backbones that mimic primates.

The monkey robot has four limbs (two arms and two legs), capable of climbing through obstacles like the hills on the Moon, or moving on uneven rocky terrain. In addition, it has the ability to balance when falling.

Monkey monkeys can stand on two legs and use the tools provided to collect the specimens. In particular, this robot can use two hands to move obstacles medium and small.

IStruct's spinal articulation acts as a six-axis torque sensor, which is the only component that makes the robot move on four legs. In addition, the foot and ankle sensors help it maintain balance on sloping terrain.

Scientists say the iStruct project aims to develop a robotic system that improves mobility and mobility. However, the focus of this project is to develop a smart robot structure that improves efficiency in complex robot walking.
