日前，日本东京大学在Science Robotics科学机器人活动上，展示了一款名叫Kengoro的任性机器人，画面相当带感。

据了解，Kengoro“身体”内置了16个驱动器，能够表现出类似人类肌收缩的东西，据说灵活程度是普通人的6倍。它可以做俯卧撑、仰卧起坐，甚至是背部伸展运动。

此外，和人类一样，Kengoro运动多了也会产生热量，为了散热，研究人员为其配备了一个水冷系统，除了能帮助Kengoro散热外，还能实现类似人类的“流汗”生理反应。

除了上面说到的运动外，Kengoro还会在业余时间打打羽毛球。

无独有偶，上个月，软银旗下波士顿力公司(Boston Dynamics)展示了一款人形机器人模仿体操运动员后空翻的画面，让人惊叹不已，先来重温一下：

大家觉得哪个机器人更先进呢？

A team of Japanese roboticists has built a new "human mimetic humanoid" that anatomically resembles the musculoskeletal intricacy of a human boy. Called Kengoro, the robot demonstrated its human-like abilities by completing a series of exercises including push-ups and sit-ups. This article will show how amazing Kengoro is.

日本的一个机器人专家小组制造了一种新的“类人机器人”，在解剖学上类似于人类男孩的复杂肌肉骨骼。这个名为kengoro的机器人通过完成一系列的练习，包括俯卧撑和仰卧起坐，向人们展示了它模仿人类的能力。 而今天国际机器人全明星就要讨论一下这位名叫Kengoro的机器人到底有多厉害。

The Kengoro is the most advanced iteration of a series that began in 2001 with a bot named Kenta. The goal of the research is to develop a robot that can act as a completely accurate human analogue, allowing for a variety of applications from better crash test dummies to improved muscle analytics for athletes and sports training. The JSK lab at the University of Tokyo has been developing these humanoid robots for several years now. Scientists at the University of Tokyo found that, in trying to keep their humanoid robot cool, the most effective way to avoid overheating was to make it sweat.

Kengoro是2001年由一个名为Kenta的机器人开始的一系列最先进的迭代。这项研究的目的是开发出一种能作为完全精确的人体模拟物的机器人，允许各种应用，从更好的碰撞试验假人到改进的运动员肌肉分析和运动训练。东京大学的JSK实验室已经开发这些类人机器人好几年了。东京大学的科学家发现，在试图让他们的仿人机器人保持冷静的过程中，避免过热的最有效方法是让它出汗。

Ostensibly the system mimics the way a human being sweats, but the process also serves a pragmatic function, designed to prevent overheating by running water through its skeletal frame and allowing steam to vent out of small vents. Kengoro is made up of 108 motors, with a frame laser sintered from aluminum, and researchers found that making the robot sweat was an effective cooling system for a bot filled to the brim with bolts. Even with the space-saving technique, the bot weighs 123 pounds and stands 5 feet 7 inches tall.

从表面上看，这个系统模仿了人出汗的方式，这其实是一个实用的功能，通过让水流过骨骼框架，让蒸汽从小的通风口排出，来防止过热。Kengoro由108台电机组成，框架激光由铝烧结而成，研究人员发现，让机器人出汗是机器人用螺栓填充边缘的有效冷却系统。即使采用了节省空间的技术，这种机器人重123磅，身高5英尺7英寸。

“Usually the frame of a robot is only used to support forces,” lead author Toyotaka Kozuki told IEEE Spectrum in an interview published. “Our concept was adding more functions to the frame, using it to transfer water, release heat, and at the same time support forces.”

The water doesn’t just gush out, though. A porous layer allows water to seep out and cool the motors through evaporation. This allows him to do push ups for 11 minutes straight without burning out the motors. And yes, just like people, Kengoro needs to take water, although he only needs a cup of deionized water every half a day to keep himself going.

“通常，机器人的框架只用于力量支撑，”主要作者ToyotakaKozuki在出版的一次采访中对IEEE Spectrum(美国电气和电子工程师协会)说到。“我们的概念是在框架中添加更多的功能，并使用它，利用它来传递水，释放热量，同时支持力量。”不过，水不只是排出。多孔层允许水通过、蒸发、渗出并冷却电机。这使他可以连续做11分钟俯卧撑，而不会烧坏发动机。是的，就像人们一样，Kengoro需要喝水，尽管他只需要每半天喝一杯去离子水来维持自己的生活。

Kengoro and his impressive frame will help give more insight into how the human body works and the future of bionics. Until then maybe, they can make Kengoro's face a little more friendly. When you look at Kengoro you can't really tell if he is smiling or not. His facial features make him a little hard to like and you can not help but get terminator vibes from him. Actually, Kengoro is a torchbearer more than a terminator to help us knowing human mimetic humanoid a lot.

Kengoro和他令人印象深刻的身体结构将有助于更深入地了解人体的工作原理和仿生学的未来。在那之前，他们可能会让Kengoro的脸更友好一点。当你看Kengoro的时候，你真的无法判断他是否微笑。他的面部特征让他有点难以取悦，你禁不住要从他身上得到终结者的感觉。事实上比起终结者他可能更像一位启蒙者来帮助我们更好地研究类人机器人。
