According to the National Innovation Center, the advances focus on the capabilities of the “embedded cerebellum,” which enables the robot to perform movements based on visual perception.
It can now climb continuous stairs with multiple levels, overcome steps up to 35 centimeters high without stumbling or hesitating, and reach a running speed of 12 km/h.
In addition, the robot demonstrated its ability to run at high speed in snowy terrain and maintain balance in the face of strong external impacts.
The “Tiangong” robot was already recognized for its ability to move in complex terrain and adapt to various conditions.
This new upgrade marks a significant advance towards its practical application in real-world tasks, such as rescues in mountains, snowy areas or areas devastated by disasters.
In tests conducted in Hai Zi Qiang Park, Tongzhou District, Beijing, “Tiangong” managed to climb a continuous series of stairs to reach the highest point.
