智能手机用于低成本机器人

Using smartphones for low-cost robotics

UAE University(阿联酋大学)

摘要:

智能手机和机器人可以是对立或共生的关系,因为它们都在努力满足重叠的客户需求。虽然智能手机很流行,但人形机器人并不流行。尽管大量的公共和私人资源被投入到人形机器人的开发和商业化中,但进展似乎停滞不前,没有一个人形机器人可以说是成功的。除了类人机器人和智能手机之间明显的工程差异外,其他经济因素也影响了这种情况。一方面,机器人的产品周期比智能手机慢。这使得机器人计算硬件(就像汽车的信息娱乐系统一样)在与智能手机并排时永远过时。另一方面,智能手机开发应用程序的动机很高,而机器人平台的动机相对较低。在这里,我们指出智能手机如何用于降低硬件成本和促进机器人应用程序开发。

英文摘要:

Smartphones and robots can have an adversarial or a symbiotic relationship because they strive to serve overlapping customer needs. While smartphones are prevalent, humanoid robots are not. Even though considerable public and private resources are being invested in developing and commercializing humanoid robots, progress seems stalled and no humanoid robot can be said to be successful with consumers. A part from the obvious engineering differences between humanoids and smartphones, other economic factors influence this situation. On one hand, the product cycle of robots is slower than smartphones. This makes robot computing hardware, (as it with automobile's infotainment systems), perennially outdated when side-by-side to a smartphone. On the other hand, the incentives to develop Apps are high for smartphones and they are comparatively low for robot platforms. Here, we point to how smartphones could be used to lower hardware cost and foster robot app development.
