In order to achieve the effect in the video, their software team specifically programmed the movements of the Atlas robot in the video. Its every movement was calculated in advance by the engineers.
The shooting site was closed.
In order to make it look great, the production team even shot dozens of repetitive movements throughout the night and chose the most stable one.
The Atlas robot seemed to be jumping around happily, but its mobile power source could only support 20 minutes of exercise intensity.
It had to be in a closed place.
If it was placed in an outdoor environment, it would only need a trivial step that was not programmed, and it would fall on its back.
Even if it could walk and jump, what could it do?
Could it flexibly control objects with its fingers like a human?
Each human hand was connected by 123 ligaments and pulled by 35 strong muscles.
If converted into a mechanical plan, it might be a 35-axis linkage machine tool.
The hardware and software solutions were no less than humans landing on Mars.
"Hmph, this is just the movement system of the elven maid." Goldsmith, the hardware engineer, continued to laugh at himself. "In addition to movement, there is also the energy system.
In addition to energy, there are seven branches of electronics, optics, radar, infrared, biological materials, and metallurgical materials. There are more than 90 kinds of hardware technology fields that need to be conquered.
If we want to conquer these, 50 years of Boston Dynamics will not be enough. "
The White House's Cokap was innocent and surprised. He asked, "Is there no solution at all?"
"No." Smith shook his head.
Smith shook his head. "Unless the White House can set up a five-year scientific and technological breakthrough plan and mobilize more than ninety manufacturing companies with the most advanced technology in the international hardware field, as well as thousands of supporting component manufacturers, regardless of investment or short-term returns."
Cokap just showed an impossible look, and Smith said first, "You don't have to rush to complain. Of course, I know you can't do it."
"I'm just saying. The most realistic solution is to repair the relationship with Monster Industries and purchase components from them."
"Thermal nerve fibers are definitely out of the question. If we can purchase plasma batteries, it will be a great product leap for Boston Dynamics."
Cokap still gave an impossible look.
If the relationship with Monster Industries was to be repaired, it would have been repaired long ago.
After giving a look, Cokap turned to ask Anter, the chief software engineer of Boston Dynamics.
The driver program of the Atlas robot was also a comprehensive production.
At least, except for Monster Industries, no other humanoid robot company could challenge it.
"Ah?" The chief software engineer, Anter, scratched his head and said, "Compared to hardware, our software is much more inferior."
They also had a supercomputing center, and they did not lack the necessary programmers.
In the White House, Kirkap's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked how small it was.
"It's so small that it only lacks one talent."
The chief software engineer, Anter, said somewhat embarrassedly, "We only lack a chief designer who can design the intelligent program model of the elven maid."
Cocapu from the White House asked, "How many people in the IT field have this kind of talent? Can we find them?"
"Only one." Chief Software Engineer Antle said, "Of course I don't know him. I don't even know his name."
"But I know his code name — Dian Jing."
"In the software department of Monster Industries, there is a very mysterious chief engineer. When he is working, he uses the code name Dian Jing to assign tasks."
"Dian Jing is responsible for the model design of a large part of the product program of Monster Industries. The engineers below will work together to complete the expansion of the remaining data according to its task assignment."
"There's only one in the world?" The White House's Kirkap had a headache. It was impossible for the technicians of Monster Industries to find him.
"Can't we integrate dozens of well-known engineers and lead the development together?"
"In Silicon Valley, we have so many outstanding software engineers."
"Of course not."
The chief software engineer, Anter, showed an expression that said, "Just one is enough."
"Model design is not building a house. More people is enough."
Anter was also a legendary engineer in the field of robot software. The White House's Kirkap asked him, "Compared to the one in Monster Industries, how much is the technical gap?"
"This is not a technical gap."
Anter smiled embarrassedly and said, "This is a gap in IQ, creativity, divergent thinking, logical thinking, learning ability, cognitive ability, comprehension ability, and so on."
"In addition to these differences, there is also a gap in knowledge."
"I am only proficient in AI linear models."
"The one in Monster Industries is proficient in AI linear models, logical models, vector quantization models, and deep neural network models."
"If we have to compare …"
The chief software engineer, Anter, looked at Kirkap of the White House and then looked at himself.
He felt that it was not good to always use himself as an example, so he simply used Kirkap of the White House as an example.
"If we have to compare, let's compare the great Einstein to you."
"The gap between me and that mysterious engineer is as big as the gap between you and Einstein in the field of science."
“？？” The White House's Kirkap looked confused and puzzled. "What can I do in the field of science?"
"I don't know anything at all. I studied the financial industry."
"A hundred thousand of me can't compare to Einstein."
"That's right." The chief software engineer, Anter, spread his hands. "Compared to that mysterious engineer, I don't know anything. A hundred thousand of me can't compare."
"A genius is a genius. Compared to an ordinary person, a genius is a flying bird and a fish."
"They are clearly two different species. One is in the sky, and the other is in the sea."
"Isn't it a joke that a fish and a bird are competing in flying?"
"…" Kirkap of the White House was a little depressed.
He finally understood that software was more unreliable than hardware.
At least in terms of hardware, it was possible to make technical breakthroughs bit by bit through the coordination of the industry's strength.
What the hell was software?
the White House's Kirkap did not want to continue the topic of the gap between software and hardware technology.
He opened a document bag and handed over a few forms. "Take them apart."
"Take apart the elf maid completely and number every part. Find out the supplier of every part except those produced by Monster Industries."
"Especially the chip category."
"We need to calculate how many of the elf maid's parts are supplied by external suppliers."
"After the list is out, we will also investigate these suppliers and find out how many of them use American technology, how many companies use American software, how many use American electronic components, or are controlled by American companies."
