“Spot “机器人,此前被称为 “SpotMini”,是波士顿动力公司开发的一款四条腿的类似狗的机器人。
详细介绍的短视频在文末,如需简要了解,不必观看视频,个人一直觉得视频的时间成本很高,流量成本很高,制作成本也很高,这三高是相对于图文博客而言。
这款敏捷的机器人身高83厘米,可以完成各种搜索、检查和运送任务。它能以前所未有的速度攀爬楼梯和穿越崎岖的地形,但它的体型却足够小,适合在室内使用。它是一个坚固耐用的(IP54防尘和防潮保护)和可定制的平台。Spot可以去轮式机器人无法去的地方,同时携带的有效载荷的耐力远超空中无人机。最大速度为1.6米/秒,续航时间为90分钟,电池可更换。Spot使用5个立体摄像头(360度视觉),在动态工作场所移动时,可以避开障碍物和人。 附上参考网址(非点击打开的链接,请复制打开)

上图可以看到webots软件界面,腾空时前后摄像头的图像也在仿真窗口左上和右上显示。 如上运动效果的代码如下:

可以自己编程实现更多复杂的运动。
