Inside this factory in China, X-Robot's engineers are working on developing humanoid robots with a focus on enhancing facial expressions and emotions.
在中國的這家工廠裡,X-Robot 公司的工程師們正在研發仿人機器人,重點是增強面部表情和情感。
So far, the main purpose of these hyper-realistic robots has been for display in museums.
迄今為止,這些超逼真機器人的主要用途是在博物館展出。
X-Robot's chief executive, Li Boyang, says humanoid robots are the most complex type of robot to build.
X-Robot 公司首席執行官李博洋說,仿人機器人是最複雜的機器人類型。
The company uses artificial intelligence to teach robots how to recognize human facial expressions and mimic them. Like here, a humanoid robot is copying a worker's movement thanks to tiny motors installed in its head.
該公司利用人工智能教會機器人如何識別人類的面部表情並進行模仿。就像這裡,一個仿人機器人通過安裝在頭部的微型電機來模仿工人的動作。
We have our own software and algorithm teams.
我們擁有自己的軟件和算法團隊。
In terms of algorithms, we focus more on the part of AI that integrates with the robot.
在算法方面,我們更關注人工智能與機器人結合的部分。
There are many basic models and algorithms that are commonly open source, which everyone uses.
有許多基本模型和算法通常都是開源的,每個人都會使用。
However, we concentrate more on how to enable the AI to recognize and express expressions and emotions. The company says it takes between two weeks and a month to produce just one humanoid robot.
不過,我們更關注的是如何讓人工智能識別並表達表情和情緒。 該公司表示,生產一個仿人機器人需要兩週到一個月的時間。
Prices range from 1.5 to 2 million yuan, or roughly 280,000 dollars.
價格從 150 萬到 200 萬人民幣不等,約合 28 萬美元。
Looking ahead, Li believes humanoid robots will have a bigger role to play, not just in healthcare and education, but in other industries as well.
展望未來,李認為仿人機器人將發揮更大的作用,不僅在醫療保健和教育領域,在其他行業也是如此。
There are a lot of jobs that humanoid robots can actually be competent at, and entering households must be the most massive demand.
人形機器人可以勝任的工作其實有很多,而進入家庭一定是最大規模的需求。
We also think that every person may have a humanoid robot in the future at home for their service, or even more than one.
我們還認為,未來每個人家裡都可能有一個人形機器人為他們服務,甚至不止一個。
So when such a large number of demand appear, it is the time of the industry boom.
是以,當大量需求出現時,就是行業繁榮的時候。
