Xiaomi It is a brand that we commonly associate with smartphone models and some other not so common products. But we never thought that when talking about this firm we would do it to share information about its most recent creation: a humanoid robot named CyberOne.
There is, as of today, an intense not very public infighting where some of the largest technology companies on the planet are fighting to enter the robotics industry.
We have here the case of sonywhich just a few days ago ended up revealing that they have the necessary resources and infrastructure to start the mass production of human-shaped automata to perform different functions and services.
It’s just that the firm would not have made the decision to start with a project of this quality simply and simply because they have not found a practical or commercial utility to start a production line for those business purposes.
But they would not be the only ones closely following in the footsteps of Elon Musk, Tesla and Neuralink with the creation of their Optimus robot.
In fact, one of the most important Chinese smartphone manufacturers on the planet would be entering the same dueling ground with an interesting proposal.
This is CyberOne the drummer robot
Since gizmochina We know the first details about the new robotics industry project developed by the people of Xiaomi.
This is CyberOne, a robot with a humanoid shape that would be capable of performing different tasks. And to demonstrate it, they started with a curious example: putting the automaton at drumming as if he were part of a rock band:
CyberOne, has a height of 1.77 meters and 52 kilos of weight. Its design seems quite influenced by Tesla’s Optimus but it has some advantages.
Since, for example, it can move at a speed of 3.6 kilometers per hour, it has 21 free points for articulation and It integrates in its head a series of sensors to recognize nearby objects.
In fact, to get the robot to play the drums the people behind this demo simply used a MIDI file for the robot to follow the sequence of the percussions and the results, as we can see, are interesting.
This feeling that the future is here is inevitable when you see it in action.
