When muscles are used, heat is generated as a by-product of their operation. When we really exert ourselves, the body cools down by sweating. Sweating removes water from the body, and when the water evaporates, it cools us down. By evaporating, sweat removes a lot of heat from the body and thus participates in the regulation of body temperature. Robots, especially dynamic ones like the humanoid Kengoro, also generate a lot of heat due to their many motors and electronics, which is often the main problem of technological devices, as they tend to overheat, which reduces their capabilities. At Kengoro, the engineers have solved this so that if the robot is working at full steam and producing a lot of heat, the robot will 'heat' and thus dissipate the excess heat and consequently not overheat, so it can also do push-ups and do them as a joke more than you!

Not exactly keen on mowing the grass, raking leaves and tearing up? Then Kobi is perfect for you. This modular robot cuts the grass, removes leaves and shovels snow by itself. And believe me, it will fit perfectly with the robotic vacuum cleaner you already have at home.
Toyota has introduced the Kirobo Mini AI robot, which is capable of automatic learning, communication, reading facial expressions and recognizing emotions. Mini is the smaller brother of the Kirobo robot that went on a space excursion in 2013 to accompany the first Japanese astronaut to work on the International Space Station. Kirobo Mini will keep you company. Who says you can't buy friendship? For 350 euros, you get the friend and interlocutor you've always wanted!
Imagine if there was a robot that would take care of your garden 24 hours a day and do all the gardening work for you - from planting, watering, spraying to removing weeds. Too good to be true, right? It won't hold. Such a robot already exists and it goes by the name of FarmBot Genesis, which could completely change the way we grow fruits and vegetables. It is an innovative open source solution from the American company FarmBot, which brings precision agriculture to the home.
Soon our lives will be much easier. With the growth of artificial intelligence and technology, machines or robots are taking over more and more of our tasks. If on the one hand they are taking away our jobs, there is also another, more pleasant side of the coin. This page is SpotMini from Boston Dynamics, which has added a new member to its family of robots in the back, a robot dog, which is an upgrade of a robot dog named Spot from 2015. Why? Because, among other things, she is good at household chores!
Until now, it was considered that the dog is man's best friend. But how much longer? Namely, Asus has developed a robot called Zenbo, whose task is to socialize with family members, communicate, entertain and help. Asus presented the house robot at the computer conference Computex 2016.
Iron Man has an assistant Pepper Potts, a leader in global payments and technology MasterCard and a restaurant chain that sells more pizza, pasta and poultry than any other restaurant in the world, and Pizza Hut has Pepper, an advanced robot that interacts with customers, takes orders and enables mobile payments. Are the days of waiters numbered?
Boston Dynamics, a company owned by Google, released a video of a new, improved version of the humanoid robot Atlas, which amazes with its capabilities. He is able to open doors, pick up objects, walk on snow and pick himself up from the ground after a fall. Is humanity doomed? Is Judgment Day Coming?
At CES 2016, NUA Robotics unveiled a robotic travel suitcase that works in conjunction with a smartphone. For tracking, you simply launch the dedicated app to connect the phone and the case, and the case will follow you faithfully like a dog, deftly dodging obstacles.
Thanks to computers, the Internet and telepresence, more and more people today can work remotely. This offers many advantages for both the employee and the employer. But physical presence at the workplace also has its benefits. That's why a double robot called Double was created, which enables our presence in the office, even though we are actually at home. And so we are not deprived of any chat over coffee.
Rossi doesn't really have a serious challenger in Lorenzo, but a humanoid robot from Yamaha. At least that's what we can conclude from what Yamaha has prepared for us at the Tokyo Moto Show 2015, where there are tons of unusual projects, but the Motobot, which drives a 1000cc Yamaha R1M, certainly beats them all. His ride on the abandoned airport closely mimics the ride of a motorcyclist, and it seems that in the future man will no longer be the one who can make the best and fastest turns.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak said that in the future, humans will be the pets of robots. Which, given the following, is still an optimistic scenario. And when we imagine the apocalypse, it doesn't usually start with an innocent game of ping pong, but the following footage of an Omron robot playing ping pong with humans and working to easily subdue not only its ping pong opponent but all of humanity suggests that we should also consider such a scenario.
