CES2017: All-terrain spider hexapod robot HEXA stunning appearance

At CES 2016, robotics such as Pepper and Segway attracted a lot of attention from the media. In the just-concluded CES 2017, the all-terrain hexapod robot HEXA developed by Vincross made its debut and became a highlight of the venue.

Vincross specializes in the development of useful robots with a product line covering the complete robotic ecosystem of robot hardware, operating systems, software applications, and network services. The all-terrain hexapod robot HEXA is a well-known product of Vincross.

The reason why it is called “all-terrain robots” is because HEXA is different from the wheeled robots that are common on the market. The hexapod structure allows it to flexibly walk, climb stairs and drill holes in various complex terrains.

In Vincross's view, robots are first and foremost a vehicle for human exploration. They can go to places where human beings can't get through carbon-based life, and even go to Elon Musk's Mars immigration program. With the help of robots, everyone can become the host of the Discovery Channel, and “exploration” itself can be a way of life that everyone can afford. If drones give humans the ability to explore the sky, then robots allow people to enter complex terrain and buildings. Second, robots should be human heroes, replacing firefighters and disaster relief personnel to perform dangerous, inhumane tasks in the event of fire and earthquake. In the not too distant future, no one will need to risk their lives to save other human beings. Finally, the robot is also a universal pet in the cyber era, providing emotional companionship for human beings. In order to achieve these goals, Vincross said, robots must be able to act on all terrain – wheeled, tracked and inactive robots have very limited interaction with the physical world, and this is the company's ability to create all-terrain mobility for HEXA. Original intention.

In the current robotics industry, many companies are keen to build robotic systems or platforms that are considered the "brains" of robots. Vincross believes that it is not enough for a robot to have a brain. It has to have a physical body that can adapt to the environment and interact with the physical world. This body is HEXA. In terms of "brains", Vincross named HEXA's software "skill" (equivalent to a smartphone app) and created an open development platform. Developers can develop new skills for HEXA through the official SDK and put them on the SkillStore for sale.

"HEXA is a living being, a living thing," Sun Tianqi said. "It is only an early stage of artificial life. There are still very limited things that can be done. We don't want people to think that HEXA is a mature, perfect robot. So we invite developers to come up with more features for HEXA. Vincross is selecting 2,048 visionary developers to be HEXA human tutors. They will be the first people in the world to get HEXA. Create the most initial skills for this life."
