Foreigners were stunned, and French media reported that robots were "taking over" the Asian Games held in China! As a Chinese, are you full of pride at the moment? Let's like the scientific and technological development of the motherland! Some netizens said that what if robots want to rule the world? Let's take a look together.
Hangzhou is one of the centers of China's technology industry, with many innovative enterprises and research institutions. At this Asian Games, they showcased a wide variety of smart devices and services that provide convenience and entertainment for athletes and tourists. Like what:
- Automatic mosquito killer robot: This is a device that can fly in the air, it attracts mosquitoes by mimicking human body temperature and breathing, and then destroys them with an electrical grid. In this way, mosquitoes can be effectively prevented from spreading diseases and protect people's health. You might wonder, could this robot accidentally hurt other creatures? Don't worry, it has a smart identification system that can distinguish mosquitoes from other insects or birds.
- Robotic dog: This is a quadruped robot that can run, jump, and tumble to inspect power facilities, venue safety, and more. It has a high-definition camera and sensors that monitor the surrounding environment and situation in real time and transmit data to the control center via a wireless network. It can also voice interact with people and answer simple questions.
- Driverless bus: This is a small bus that can drive autonomously, it uses technologies such as radar, cameras, GPS, etc. to sense road conditions, traffic signals, obstacles, etc., and uses algorithms to plan the best route and speed. It can provide shuttle services for passengers around the Shaoxing Baseball (Softball) Sports and Cultural Center.
- Table tennis robot: This is a robot that can play table tennis against people, it has a high-speed camera and a serving mechanism to adjust its own serve and return according to the opponent's ball path and strength. It can also adjust its difficulty according to the opponent's level, making it challenging but not too frustrating.
- Robot Pianist: This is a robot that can play the piano and it has a flexible arm and fingers that can mimic human movements to hit the keyboard. It can also play different tracks based on sheet music or live music, and even improvise them.
In addition to these robots, there are many other types of robots that provide services for the Asian Games in cleaning, disinfection, sales, consulting, etc. You might be wondering, how do these robots work? In fact, they all use the amazing technology of artificial intelligence (AI).
AI is to give machines intelligence similar to humans, such as perception, understanding, learning, decision-making and other capabilities. AI can collect data through various sensors, then analyze the data through various algorithms, and finally output the results through various actuators. AI can make robots more intelligent, autonomous, and flexible, so as to complete more tasks and improve efficiency and quality.
The application of AI is not limited to robots, but also involves various aspects of the Asian Games, such as:
- Digital Torchbearer Program: This is a program that allows all smartphone users to participate in the torch relay, which uses multiple cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud services, blockchain, and more. Users can scan the QR code through their mobile phone to get a digital torch and pass it on to other users by shaking the phone. In this way, the limitations of time and space can be overcome and more people can participate in the atmosphere of the Asian Games.
- Facial recognition technology: This is a technology that can identify people by analyzing facial features, and it has many applications in the Asian Games, such as:
- Admission security: Spectators only need to pass through a facial recognition device to quickly verify their identity and tickets, without the need to show any documents or paper tickets.
- Contactless payment: Viewers can pay directly in a store or restaurant through a facial recognition device, without the need for cash or cards.
- Smart hotel: Viewers can check in and out directly through facial recognition devices without queuing or filling out forms.
- Media-free holographic AI robot: This is a robot that can project three-dimensional images in the air, which uses media-free holographic technology and large language models to conduct real-time voice, gestures and other multi-dimensional interactions with the audience. It is the world's first media-free holographic welcome robot, which will bring unprecedented visual and experiential effects to the Asian Games.
From these examples, we can see that AI has penetrated into all aspects of the Asian Games, providing more intelligent, convenient and comfortable services for athletes and spectators. AI has also brought more vitality and charm to the city of Hangzhou.
As for some people's fears that AI and robots will rule the world, it is not necessary! What will be wrong with using them rationally and grasping their development direction and rhythm! If AI and robots rule the world, it is also our China's AI and robots!
