勞工機(jī)器人

????如果你是生產(chǎn)線上的一名工人，那你未來的同事有可能會是一臺機(jī)器人?？偛课挥诿绹ㄊ款D的公司Rethink Robotics公司已成功研發(fā)出一款新型的制造機(jī)器人Baxter。它能夠與人類并肩工作，完成各種各樣的重復(fù)性生產(chǎn)任務(wù)。這款機(jī)器人不需要借助任何高科技的編程；任何人都可以訓(xùn)練它，或者向它演示如何完成一項(xiàng)任務(wù)，比如裝箱、組裝產(chǎn)品等。這款機(jī)器人能夠探測到人類的存在和活動，從而確保自身在人類身邊的安全行動。

Factory Worker

????If you work on a manufacturing line, your future co-worker could be a robot. Boston-based Rethink Robotics has created Baxter, a new manufacturing robot that performs a variety of repetitive production tasks right next to people. The robot doesn't need high-tech programming; anyone can teach and show the robot how to do a job, such as packing boxes and assembling products. The robot can detect human presence and interference, which ensures its safety around people.
