Japan electronics giant Hitachi has unveiled a robot that can negotiate uneven surfaces, respond to voice commands ... and roller-skate.
日本電子巨頭日立已揭示一種機器人，它能越過凹凸不平的表面，應對語音命令...及滾軸溜冰。
The EMIEW2 humanoid could work as a tour guide or security guard, the firm said.
EMIEW2類人形可以工作為一導遊或保安員，公司說。
It has complicated spring-loaded shock absorbers in its legs that allow it to move across minor bumps and wires on the floor without tripping, a world-first for a robot of its kind, the company said.
它有複雜的彈簧加載減震器在它的腳，容許它跨越在地上的輕微碰撞和電線而不跳閘，世界首個這種類的機器人，公司說。

'It can control its posture the way humans do when we stabilise ourselves after jumping on inline skates,' Yuji Hosoda, chief researcher at Hitachi's transportation systems department, said at the robot's Tokyo launch.

The machine, just 32 inches tall and weighing almost 31 pounds, has 14 microphones fitted into its helmet that can pick out human voices from background noise such as music or the clatter of footsteps.

Fitted with wheels on its two legs, it moves at a maximum 3.7 miles an hour, a fast walking speed for a human adult.

The red-and-white robot could be used as a receptionist and visitors' guide in office buildings, Hosoda said.

'It could also be used for security, such as patrolling and surveillance as it could find a suspicious person hiding in blind spots out of range of fixed security cameras,' he said.
'This adorable EMIEW could lead to a new form of surveillance.'
The company has not yet announced plans to commercialise the robot.
The name EMIEW -- although it sounds like Australia's flightless bird the emu -- is in fact short for 'excellent mobility and interactive existence as workmate,' Hitachi said.

日本公司推出滾軸機器人 可當導游和保安

據國外媒體報道，日本電子業巨頭日立公司近期推出了一款新機器人“EMIEW2”，該機器人能通過無線裝置接收指令對人的語音做出回應。並且能憑借“滾軸”在地面不平的辦公室行動自如地來回走動，擔當辦公室“導游”或“保安人員”職責。

　　據悉，這款“EMIEW2”機器人身高大約0.8米，體重14千克。日立公司在其背部安裝了14個擴音器，以使其能在吵雜的音樂或腳步聲中接收到人的語音信息，並且還能夠和人進行簡單的對話交流，甚至播報天氣預報。這款機器人的最大行進速度約為6千米每小時，相當於一個成年人快走時的速度。

　　據悉，日立公司在類人機器人研發方面一直走在前列。公司早在2005年3月就制造出了其第一台智能機器人“EMIEW1”，並希望 EMIEW”系列機器人能在未來五六年內，為人們的辦公生活提供更多幫助，但日立公司拒絕透露“EMIEW2”機器人的最終市場價格及發行日期等具體問題。(海瀾)
