4 Mdern Rbts That Will Shape Our Future
There was nce a time when rbts were limited t science-fictin mvies and nvels. Nw we have a wide variety f rbts, available fr ur service. Here are 4 examples.
Valkyrie
NASA’s “superher” rbt is 6 feet 2 inches in height and was riginally designed fr use n the Internatinal Space Statin. Valkyrie is able t walk by itself, pick up bjects and use tls. NASA hpes that ne day, it can help humans in danger znes and disaster-stricken areas. The rbt is basically a she-bt since it was built with female characteristics.
Schaft
This rbt, made by a Japanese cmpany (which was later bught by Ggle), wn the recent DARPA rbtics cmpetitin. The 4 feet 11 inches in height rbt can pwer itself instead f a battery. This gives it greater mvement since batteries limit hw fast the rbt can actually perfrm tasks. Schaft blew the cmpetitin away.
Ian the Invincible
Ian, based n the Atlas rbt, is created by Ggle-wned, Bstn Dynamics. The 6 feet 2 inches in height rbt has 28 hydraulically actuated jints and stere visin. What makes Ian unique is the sftware which allws him t drive a car. Ian came secnd at the Rb-Olympics, but the 330pund giant still has quite a way t g.
Telebt
Still under develpment at Flrida Internatinal University, Telebt will give injured and disabled plice fficers an pprtunity t g back t wrk. The rbt is 180 cm in height, travels n wheels and is remte cntrlled. Three HD cameras give Telebt a 360 degree view and with multiple sensrs, it helps cps t mnitr any dangerus situatin frm a safe distance.
1. What des Valkyrie feature?
A. Built-in cameras.B. The capacity t use tls.
C. Its unique gender design.D. The ability t pick up bjects.
2. What d Schaft and Ian the Invincible have in cmmn?
A. They have the same height.B. They ffer similar applicatins.
C. They bth wn in the Rb-Olympics.D. They nw belng t the same firm.
3. Wh is Telebt intended fr?
A. The disabled.B. The plice.C. The elderly.D. The astrnauts.

Marei S.B., 25, gt her first taste f her dream career this past summer in Clrad, where she interned (實習) at Wdward, Inc., an American designer, manufacturer, and service prvider f cntrl system cmpnents fr aircraft engines fr sme f the wrld’s largest aircraft cmpanies. Marei was part f the platfrm develpment engineering team at Wdward, helping train the peratins and engineering teams n crucial aircraft cmpnents.
“This was my very first internship, and I was amazed by the aerspace industry,” she said. “We were always crunched under deadlines, and custmers, understandably, requested large wrk rders. There was always a pressure t perfrm yur best and prvide them with the best pssible units made at ur plant. This taught me a lt abut hw demanding and fast-paced the industry is, but it als cnfirmed and reassured me that I really want t wrk in the aerspace industry.”
The internship required Marei t use bth her technical engineering and interpersnal skills. She wrked with bth the engineering and peratins teams at Wdward. “The peratins team didn’t necessarily have engineering degrees, s I had t break dwn technical terms int everyday wrds that we use,” she said. “It taught me t be specific and precise. Even if I have t repeat things three r fur times, that’s ttally fine. I’d rather be mre repetitive and ensure each step is crrect than have t rewrk the entire prcess.”
Marei als helped train the teams thrugh prduct displays and visual wrk instructins n hw t manufacture specific prducts. That brught its wn unique thrill, as the instructins she created culd be used lng after her internship ended.
Marei is planning t return t Wdward this winter. She’ll have anther semester’s wrth f engineering knwledge, which will further her int the career she’s always wanted. “I gt t apply many f the things I learned at Harvard,” she said. “The internship taught me the technical knwledge I’d need t learn frm my curses that culd be applied here.”
