Humanoid robots competed for the first time in the weightlifting category at the World Robot Games, held on Monday, August 22nd, at the Beijing National Speed Skating Hall.Four robots in the heavyweight category began by lifting a 15-kilogram barbell. In one attempt, a robot lost its balance and fell towards the judges’ table. Immediately after, officials stopped the competition and declared that attempt over.
Let’s face, a “robot” is basically a car manifesting its fast manoeuvrability via “two-legs” – instead of wheels. A standard car, depending upon the skill of the driver, should be able to easily beat the fastest of humans. A human-body lacks the mechanical ability to accelerate from 0-60mph in five-seconds – on the grounds that it has not been an evolutionary necessity. The idea that an artificial machine, just because it has been given the moulded externality of a “human-shaped body” – does not mean it has any genuine relationship (or connection) to a “biologically-functioning” human-body. What is the difference between a “robot” and a “drone”? Answer – the ability to “flight”. And that’s about it. What’s next – parachuting? Rock-climbing? Diving? It is an interesting gimmick and I suspect the CPC might be using ths technology to intimidate the US by proxy – as these “funny little fellows” might be used as expendable infantry soldiers in a future war of self-defence against US aggression.
Of course, the bridge was never designed to be a tourist attraction per se – but it certainly is today – replete with a glass-floor on each of the two towers. Climbing the 209-steps-up essentially culminates in the traversing of the two towers – “North” and the “South” which are 213-feet above the water of the River Thames. Along the side of the Walls are arranged historical write-ups about this or that fact. For instance, a “bail of hay” has to hung beneath the arms of the bridge when these arms are not in operation and/or receiving repair.
The Russian Knight became the world’s first all-wood four-engine biplane, and its successor Ilya Muromets became the world’s first serial four-engine aircraft. ▫️ Sikorsky’s inventions laid the foundation for a new direction in aviation and became the progenitors for modern heavy bombers, transporters and passenger airliners. 🔹 @mod_russia
