What if we could wear bodysuits to give us super strength? Own an identical robot twin to work for us? What if we could travel through time? Technology is pushing from every direction, getting faster with each passing second. Prepare yourself! The future is closer than you think.
穿上特制的緊身衣獲得超能力?擁有一個雙胞胎機器人來為我們工作?穿越時空去旅行?現代科技正全面向前推進,每秒都在加速發展。準備好吧!未來比你想象中更近。
A robot conducting a symphony orchestra! Amazing as that is, it’s just one way reality is outpacing science fiction. Everyday robots become even more sophisticated, taking on additional human traits. Until now, robots have mostly gotten the toughest jobs. They work at the assembly line and defuse or even detonate explosive devices.
一個機器人在指揮交響樂!就是這么驚奇,現實能超過科幻小說,而這只是一方面而已。每一天機器人都在成長,構造越來越精細,呈現出人類的特征。直到現在,機器人承受的依然是最艱巨的工作。他們在生產線上工作,在排除危險,甚至在引爆炸彈。
The traditional tasks for a robot have always been the 3-Ds: dull, dirty, dangerous. But as the technology improves and as the researchers are working towards developing these intelligent humanoids, we are going to see our homes and offices occupied by robots. I believe that humanoid technologies will improve our lives in the 21st century.
傳統的機器人工作總是與“3D”有聯系:dull(枯燥),(骯臟),(危險)。不過,隨著技術的進步,而且研究者現在專注于發展它們的“智能”和“擬人性化”,它們很快就會走進我們的家和辦公室了。 我相信智能技術將改善21世紀人們的生活。
The world capital of humanlike robots is Japan.
日本視世界擬人化機器人之都。
Half of the industrial robots in the world are in Japan. Japan sees itself as a leader in robot and humanoid technology. The country even has a new kind of celebrity--a humanoid robot named Asimo.
全世界有一半的工業機器人分布在日本。日本人視自己國家為機器人及擬人化技術的領跑者。日本甚至有了一顆冉冉升起的新星,它就是擬人化機器人阿西莫。
