Russian military android till end of the year is going to learn how to run

http://ria.ru/defense_safety/20150608/1068776132.html

MOSCOW, June 8 - RIA Novosti. The developed Russian scientists humanoid battle robot to the end of 2015 to learn to run and pass the obstacle course, told RIA Novosti the head of the Foundation for Advanced Studies (FPI) Andrei Grigoryev.

"Fighting robot android that looks like a person, according to our plans to the end of the year will have been able to run, pass the obstacle course and perform other actions. Its purpose - a work in highly dangerous conditions, where you need the presence of a man with remote management. The goal is that the person was in a normal situation, and the robot working in a dangerous area "- said Grigoriev.

According to him, the robot can be used for mine clearance and other dangerous, but do not require a particularly delicate operations tasks (more accurate data in the fund is not shown). This robot "is not designed to run with a gun": it has other tracked and wheeled platforms that successfully solve such problems, said Grigoriev.

Foundation for Advanced Studies was created in 2012 by analogy with the American agency DARPA, which is responsible for the promotion of innovation in the US Armed Forces. Currently, 53 projects approved by the DRF, and 31 of them are already working in the laboratories of the fund.

EMERCOM of Russia is beginning to replace the imported robots-domestic engineers

MOE found Russian manufacturers producing "successful models of robots for demining". So, in Kubinka collect robotic systems for continuous cleaning of the terrain, some characteristics are superior to the imported samples.

MOSCOW, Jun 9 — RIA Novosti. Robotic engineers Russian production may occur in service of EMERCOM of Russia in the next three years, told RIA Novosti Deputy head of the Centre for rescue operations special risk "Leader" Alexey Kudyakov.
According to him, now almost all robots-the bomb squad used in the system of EMERCOM produced abroad.


New robots for clearing mines will go to the troops of the Russian Federation
"Now we exploit the Swedish and German robotic systems for explosive hazards. In Rzhev we have a complex for solid cleaning the area, also imported... At present we are monitoring the market identifies several manufacturers of such equipment in Russia. In the procurement plan for the needs of the Ministry of emergency situations, this technique may appear in the years 2016-2018," — said the representative of the MOE.
He noted that the proposals of a number of domestic enterprises are not satisfied with the Agency, because their development is more like a "constructor" of the same import parts, with a fairly high price for the service. But it was possible to find such producers from Russia, who make "good models of robots for demining".
"For example, in Kubinka collect robotic systems for continuous cleaning of the area (from explosive devices). This production is nearly equivalent, according to some characteristics even better than the imported samples. It is wider functionality, more technical possibilities. Therefore, we can say that the work on the replacement of similar imported domestic has already begun," said Kudyakov.

MOSCOW, 24 Jun — RIA Novosti. Testing of software that will teach robotics to think and make decisions independently, started in Russia, told RIA Novosti the representative of the United instrument Corporation (OPK, part of Rostec state Corporation).
Originally planned to use the intellectual complex for military equipment, but in the future may also spread to civilian purposes.
United instrument Corporation has completed the development and began testing a software system for centralized and decentralized control of a group of robotic systems, which minimizes the human involvement in the control of machines and allows the robots to operate more or less independently," — said the Agency interlocutor.
He explained that the Corporation developed the "brain" will manage heterogeneous robots in the team may include aerial and underwater vehicles, ground vehicles for different purposes. The operator directs the group, and the tasks in it are distributed independently.
"The machine is able to make smart decisions in unusual situations in real time. Robots to independently overcome unexpected obstacles, such as fallen tree, select the optimal path dynamically reassigning tasks", — said the representative of the defence industry.

Is relatively easy to make a robot speaking of engines of robot. But the problem is how you corelate the movements of engines and arms whit the target at distance it is. Its imply derivative and second order derivatives of movement that must be put in the software

You do that by implementing sensor feedback loop and regulator PID turning that you must make by analyzing a model with a transfer function. But in Russia this is nothing new...

Achievements of Tomsk robotics appreciated by experts of the MIC


http://www.i-mash.ru/news/nov_otrasl/68218-dostizhenija-tomskojj-robototekhniki-ocenili.html

At the exhibition of achievements of robotics in TPU, which was attended by the members of the Board of the Military-industrial Commission of Russia, universities, research organizations and innovative companies presented 84 development for education and industry. This was reported in the administration of the Tomsk region.

TUSUR showed anthropomorphic robots-football players, model industrial forklift, the robot is controlled via an app on your smartphone, intellectual systems "man-robot", robot-hexapod for working in hard to reach places, a cane for visually impaired people, robots to teach students. The chair introduced the self-propelled robotic installations and the program for the study of human emotions, which can be used to identify terrorists. The company "Micran" presented several current developments, including the robot weather station.

"Robot-weather station automatically measures meteorological parameters. The complex in 2007 adopted in the Russian Armed forces and serially manufactured at our company", - said Deputy General Director NPF "Micran" Valery Cagada.

Scientists TPU the exhibition demonstrated systems for acoustic monitoring and a means for communication under water, which is supposed to use to explore the Mariana trench, but also dancing robots, a mobile platform terrain and metallic electron beam 3D printer.

During familiarization with the exposition of the Deputy Governor of Tomsk region for scientific and educational complex and innovation policy Mikhail Sonkin stressed that this is only a small part of development of the Tomsk specialists in the field of robotics. The bypass was attended by the rector of TPU Petr Chubik, rector of Tomsk University Alexander Shelupanov and rector of TSPU Valery Obukhov.

Well, it has a chance of inflicting debilitating damage to enemy combatants due to its hilarity factor... the enemy is laughing so hard at seeing what looks like a headless cow with down syndrome advancing on their position they become immobilised and unable to react. This is a very clearly defined strategy, don't underestimate the power of humour.

It would be nice to have robotic horse. Don't laugh, an ATV can only take you so far. Horses have the problem of needing food
and tiring. Otherwise they are very versatile transport "vehicles" for an individual.

But this US contraption looks like it is a long way from the functionality of a four-legged animal despite its appearances.

on plain field ofcourse you can use a atv...but on climb a hill how you manage this? ofcourse is expensive than a atv but works...

ofcourse robots with tracks like a tank can climb everywhere ...not to mention that even a 4 legs robot cant climb certain hills... and i cant imagine a robot do climbs with ropes

Ooh god, this looks like a joke, Russia could easily accomplish "this" with a disarmed version of Platform-M for a fraction of the cost.

They are cool looking when they edit out all the times they fall over, but if you look at their stride it's still the clunky old walking method were there's no flexibility, and rigid balance correction. The biggest problem with replicating natural walking is that these robots actively have to cause imbalance to initiate motion, and then actively balance and correct themselves then assess their position. This is why they have the unnatural stomping motion. This method relies completely on the use of motors and actuators for 100% of its movement. In order to have a natural stride, you need to employ a system of artificial tendons to transfer movement along multiple points on the limb. Basically, using motors only to cause the initial imbalance necessary to form a stride, and the correcting the fall using variable springs and artificial tendons that dampen the step and react to begin the initial movement for the second step.

The problem is this reaction has to be dynamic, and must replicate the energy preservation of a natural stride. While it's challenging to understand this motion even in your own steps, if you get off your ass and walk around you can feel how the tendons in your ankles have a controlled amount of stretch that varies as necessary to deal with the terrain, whether it is flat ground, stairs, or whatever else. This stretch is also a fraction of maximum available stretch the tendons have. It is this seemingly automatic variable control of the tendon's resistance that allows for efficient natural movement. Your brain isn't telling your tendons to stretch to this point and stop as the actuators in these robots do, your brain is allowing your tendons to stretch and react to the input of the ground, and then stopping the stretch and initiating the appropriate contractions when necessary. As you can imagine, this is incredibly hard to replicate, but necessary to have an efficient stride. If you want to see real world examples of this technology, the next generation of prostheses is were you should start looking. Of course these systems still rely on passive and active human interface to function correctly.

Hugh Hurr has done amazing work in deciphering and replicating biological motion.
