Yunshen released a new quadruped robot to achieve 50Kg large load and complex terrain operations

On November 6, Yunshen Technology officially released a new quadruped robot product - Jueying X50. Through a new upgrade of "sensory control fusion" and a high-rigidity and high-response joint system, it achieves a comprehensive breakthrough of greater load, stronger traffic, and more stable posture. Yunshen further expands the boundaries of heavy-duty operations for quadruped robots in extreme environments, solving pain points for high-risk industries such as emergency firefighting and energy and power. Heavy load and traffic have long been a difficult problem for quadruped robots: as the load increases, the fault tolerance space for climbing and descending steps narrows simultaneously. During high-intensity outdoor operations, robot dogs often get stuck in the "last mile" of complex terrain. According to Leifeng.com, the Jueying X50 quadruped robot has comprehensively optimized the joints and overall structure of the robot, increasing the load during continuous travel to 50kg without increasing the size of the body. Under the rated large load state of 50kg, the Jueying X50 quadruped robot can still move forward stably with load when facing complex road conditions such as stair slopes, rugged mountain roads, and gravel roads. It has all-terrain heavy-load capabilities and is capable of undertaking operations on high-intensity and complex terrains. During power inspections, the Jueying X50 robot dog can carry heavy equipment such as hydraulic tools, insulator strings and grounding wire groups, reducing the burden of manual handling and effectively avoiding safety problems such as physical exhaustion, occupational strain, falls and sprains for maintenance personnel; in firefighting tasks, the Jueying X50 robot dog of Yunshencheng Technology can not only carry tens of kilograms of firefighting equipment It is equipped to quickly penetrate into the fire scene, and can also carry fire hoses to carry out continuous water spraying operations, thereby greatly reducing the risk of firefighters working in close and high-risk operations; in emergency rescue, the Jueying X50 robot dog can carry life detectors, demolition tools, medical supplies and other heavy rescue equipment deep into the disaster scene, reaching the core area of the accident within the golden rescue time. At the same time, under a rated load of 50kg, this quadruped robot continues to race at a speed of 3m/s.

A one-part wonder! The West End’s streamlined Harry Potter and the Cursed Child works like magic

Palace theatre, London Five hours have been trimmed to three for this new version but it is packed with magic moments and superb performances Ten years on from its premiere, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has been transformed from an epic two-part play into a richly absorbing one-part production. A similar version is already running to great acclaim on Broadway but it still feels risky to tinker with a show that has come to feel like a fixed jewel in the West End. Happily, that risk has paid off and Cursed Child hasn’t lost any of its sparkle. Admittedly, there are some drawbacks to reducin
