Speaking of exoskeleton system, there are many related demonstration videos on the Internet. Recently, a Research Institute of the second Academy of Aerospace Science and industry group has developed a "brain machine exoskeleton robot". Wearing this "armor", no matter how thin a person is, he will become a "Hercules" in seconds.
In the laboratory of the Institute, the author was lucky to experience the power of this "brain machine exoskeleton robot". After wearing the "helmet" with full sense of science and technology, the author will have a detailed operation interface in his field of vision. Without talking, he only needs to choose the "handling" function with his eyes. The central processing terminal will quickly capture the authors intention, and the "brain computer exoskeleton robot" will assist the author to easily lift a weight of 50 kg.
Zhang Lijian, deputy chief designer of the project leader, told the author that the "brain machine exoskeleton robot" can recognize the EEG signals generated by the visual cortex, so as to realize "mind control".
In order to develop this product, Zhang Lijian led the team for six years. The original R & D inspiration came from a foreign exhibition experience 10 years ago. At that exhibition, Zhang Lijian first came into contact with "exoskeleton robot". At the scene, he was impressed by the scene of foreign technicians using "exoskeleton robot" to easily carry heavy objects.
At that time, this technology was still in a blank in China. Therefore, Zhang Lijian sprouted the idea of manufacturing exoskeleton robot. Facing the realistic dilemma of extreme lack of technology and data, Zhang Lijian bravely shouldered the heavy burden and set up a research group. After painstaking research and development, the domestic "exoskeleton robot" finally came out.
During the test, Zhang Lijian found that the "exoskeleton robot" could not help people up and down the stairs. He first tried to install a control switch on the robot hand. After the test, this operation mode is very inconvenient when handling goods. Later, he tried to use voice control, but the voice control system responded slowly. When everyone was at a loss, Zhang Lijian put forward a novel idea - using EEG to control the robot.
Although the transmission rate of EEG signal is fast, it is easy to be disturbed. A life experience, let Zhang Lijian find a way to solve the problem. One day when Zhang Lijian came home from work, he fastened his metal helmet on his mobile phone, and the mobile phone signal completely disappeared. At this time, an idea came into his mind: "if the signal receiver is embedded in the helmet, the problem of EEG interference will be solved?"
Just do it. A few days later, a "brain consciousness helmet" was successfully born. When the tester put on the "brain consciousness helmet", the generated EEG signal successfully instructed the exoskeleton robot to move. Seeing this scene, everyone was pleasantly surprised. "Although the range of motion of the robot is not large, it can prove that our efforts are in the right direction." Zhang Lijian said.
Subsequently, Zhang Lijian led several engineers of the team to debug the program, optimize the code, completely eliminate the interference noise, and finally realize the stable operation of the exoskeleton robot. After the product was finalized, Zhang Lijian named the improved product "brain machine exoskeleton robot".
Zhang Lijian confidently took the "brain computer exoskeleton robot" to the world robot conference and won the "innovation and Creativity Award of BCI brain computer interface competition".
If the world robot conference is a debut, the "super warrior 2019" individual exoskeleton system challenge held by the army equipment department is a big test. In the competition with many domestic and foreign skeletal robots, "brain machine exoskeleton robot" passed all the way with the advantages of convenient operation, flexibility and mobility, and finally won the championship of obstacle crossing and ammunition loading.
After returning with a good reputation, Zhang Lijian and his team did not stop the pace of research and development. Not long ago, a new generation of "brain machine exoskeleton robot" came out. Zhang Lijian said he believed that in the near future, after continuous improvement and upgrading, the new "brain computer exoskeleton robot" with lighter weight, stronger function and higher information level will become the "new favorite" of battlefield applications in the future.
