Sony Develops Small Biped Entertainment Robot

With Ability to Adopt Its Movement to a Variety of Situations and Offering Rich Communication

Tokyo, Japan - Sony Corporation today announced the development of a prototype small biped entertainment robot "SDR-4X" that can adapt its performance to its environment and situations found in the home to further develop the possibility for a biped-walking robot. Richer communication with people can be realized by a variety of sensor systems, performance control software based on memory and learning, and a flexible biped walking mechanism.

While improving the output performance of small actuators that drive each joint, a newly developed "Real-time Integrated Adaptive Control System" controls a total of 38 joints in the robot's body in real time, based on information from various sensors gathered in real time. More advanced movements are realized by enabling biped walk on irregular and tiled surface plus posture retention control under external pressure. In addition, stable and flexible walk can be achieved by the real time production of walking patterns such as pace and rotation angle in accordance with various situations. Using two CCD color cameras for image recognition, the SDR-4X can detect the distance between itself and an object by processing the parallax of the two cameras. These cameras allow the robot to perceive the figuration of an object and range between itself and the object to automatically produce a route in order to make its way around the object.

  • i wanna push it sideways

  • I thought that was Sony Qrio?

  • AWSOME. I love robotics it is a passion. My friend says it is too.

  • The algorithms used to tell a robot how to react to stimuli are very complex. These are obviously baby steps in the right direction. I don't want to see the program code that tells a robot how to take a fall from any direction or any velocity and how to stand up from any position. That would be scary and complicated...props to the programers.

  • I want that guy's shiny jacket.

  • Yeah, kind of impressive, I guess, but I agree with the comments about the method of knock-down. It's obvious that you warn the robot it's going to fall with such a light, slow push- therefore, the robot controls the fall by buckling its knees.

    Instead of giving it a command to fall on it's own by cuing it with "push," just haul off and knock that sucker off it's feet!

    After all, anything being prepared to fall should be prepared to fall hard.

  • wow its effect u hav to learn english

    and also, cabbage head....wow...

  • You are so right! We Americans are too damn worried someone gay will get married and long for times of buggy and horses for some reason. WTF!! MOVE ON AND GET EDUCATED!!
