2018: Demonstration of opportunities of the robot on video

At the end of September, 2018 the Japanese National  Institute  of the advanced industrial sciences and technologies (AIST) showed the HPR-5P robot builder. Among other functions he recognizes sheets of gypsum cardboard, lifts them and precisely beats to a wall using self-tapping screws.

HPR-5P is one more result of an initiative of Humanoid Robotics Project assuming development of robots for the help with the house. This project develops with direct support of the Japanese authorities, including the Ministries of Economics, trade and the industry.

The humanoid HPR-5P robot of 182 cm in height and weighing 101 kg moves by means of the powerful electric motor which allows to lift objects up to 3 kg.

The robot, scanning space by means of cameras each 3.3 seconds, makes the three-dimensional map of the area thanks to what defines where there is a gypsum cardboard. After that the robotized builder takes the sheet, rotates it in the necessary direction and brings to a framework.

By the end of September, 2018 in "brains" of the robot it is put recognition up to 10 construction tools (including the screw driver) used for gypsum cardboard installation. Special sensors which help to determine length and type of a subject with which the robot works are provided.

AIST say that HPR-5P is suitable for use rather not in house conditions, and on building. Researchers and engineers of institute are sure that because of aging of the population of Earth not to do people without robots assistants on construction.

 During demonstration of HPR-5P attached sheets to  already ready wooden framework, and here engineers from  Switzerland  created  a system from  two robots, capable to create such and  much more difficult frameworks. Two robomanipulators are able to take independently boards and  bars, to saw off from  them excess parts, to put them   to each other and  to drill fixing openings.[1]
