Thanks to the synthetic muscles underneath the transparent skin, experts have developed a robot with amazing lifespan.
Polish startup cloning robotics shares a new primitive, its “faceless, anatomically accurate synthetic man”.
The 6-foot prototype machine hangs from the ceiling at the company’s secret development workshop.
In the video shared online, the original man was seen twitching and bowing like a puppet.
Protoclone is described as “the world’s first bipedal, musculoskeletal Android”, a type of pseudo-bones, joints, tendons and muscles that can walk on both legs.
The company posted the virus clip onto the X and received mixed reactions, one of which described it as “Great” and the other called it “Spooky.”
Some social media users seem to be bothered by the faceless robot, and some say, “Can you draw a smile on your head?”
Compared to other robots, ProtoClone is arguably more human-like body shape and has realistic movement.
The prototype is said to be considered “anatomically” with degrees of freedom exceeding 200 degrees, in other words, 200 possible movements.
It also has 1,000 different artificial muscle fibers or muscle fibers and 500 sensors to gain insight into its surroundings.
The prototype is pneumatically powered, but according to the company, it plans to switch to a hydraulic system that uses pistons and liquids.
Yuanjinglong has a 500-watt electric pump circulates water, similar to the blood of the human heart.
