to the post above. Chinese companies are actively robotizing their production. Xiaomi has released a new arm for its factory figures. Robohand is the basis of robots. What is the breakthrough? Xiaomi engineers did not move from technology to scenario, but from mass scenario in factories to optimal technology. The goal is to accelerate the creation of truly flexible factories, where the robot quickly reconfigures itself to different tasks, rather than the other way around, and ultimately eliminate human labor from factory operations as much as possible. Engineers have realized that 21 degrees of freedom of hands is optimal and there is no need for documentation (the human hand has a little more than 21). The transition from 6-15 to 17-21 degrees of freedom increases the efficiency to 38%, and beyond that is expensive, complicated and inefficient. 1500 tactile elements scattered over the palm were installed in the hand. The hand itself is dressed in a special glove. This gave the arm the ability to adapt to a much wider range of tasks in the plant. The tests lasted 4 months. 70% of all manual operations in the factory were selected for testing (1827 out of 2579) and it turned out that the robot can handle almost all of them. The accuracy indicators are close to human ones: if not immediately, then after a short training. And sometimes it transcends. Also, Xiaomi increased the hand resource 15 times at once - up to 150,000 cycles. This is a breakthrough because one of the problems with humanoids now is the low resource of their hands. The engineers achieved this result in just one year. The goal is to reach millions. In addition, the problem of overheating was solved - this was also a headache for the engineers. Xiaomi's 5-year plans are to actively introduce humanoids into manufacturing, which will not only replace humans, but also quickly adapt to a wide variety of manufacturing tasks. For now it is also a prototype, which continues to be tested in factories. One of the issues is the economy of use. According to various sources, an hour of human labor costs 2-12 dollars, and the return varies from 1.
