Chinese robotics company Zhongqing Robotics, also Known as Engineaihas officially been introduced the humanoid robotics scene by releasing a video with a view to what it claims is the world’s first humanoid robot Front Flip.
Robot -backflips become commonplace, but a flip in front is considerably more difficult than a backflip, as any gymnast can confirm.

Front flips: a big problem
The challenge for robots that try a front -flip is in maintaining balance and control during rotation.
In contrast to people, robots trust precise sensor data and motor control element to perform complex movements. During a front, the robot must quickly move its weight, adjust its center of gravity and coordinate the movements of its limbs to guarantee a smooth and controlled landing.
Engineai has overcome an important challenge in robotics by programming the PM01 to collect sufficient power to turn in the forward direction and at the same time calculate the correct angle speed and torque.

Robots feel no fear
Of course this is a robot and it has no fear, no hesitation and no sense of self -preservation. His designers can do everything about it range of powerful electric motors And joints in its anatomy, and it is coded and instructed to turn around so that it turns.
What is artificial intelligence (AI)?

Engineai’s PM01: The details
It is still an impressive performance because the field of robotics, in particular humanoid, general robots, is progressing at an incredible pace. Ten years ago these kinds of things just didn’t exist. Now you can buy your own open source PM01 Robot Before 13,700, according to the Engineai website.
The specifications are not bad, with five degrees of freedom in each arm and six per leg, a total of 23 degrees of freedom in exercise. The robot also has 221 LB-FT torque (300 Nm), which seems like a pretty blow when the little man is only 4.5 ft long and weighs 88 pounds. Engineai’s general human -like humanoid robot nails a front flip and runs away as a champion with one of the most human -like corridors that have been seen so far.

Technical specifications
The Engineai PM01 has a deep camera, the Intel RealSense D435i, a multi-array microphone for clear and bright sound quality and an interactive core display for a seamless user experience. The robot is designed with high flexibility in the waist, 320 ° rotation capacity and hollow joint wiring for a lightweight design with high durability and reliability. Each leg contains 6 degrees of freedom, with three hip joints, one knee joint and two ankle joints.
It also contains surround sound 3D speakers who simulate human voice direction. The fast-release battery with high capacity offers 10,000 mAh for long-term capital and quickly exchange. The PM01 is powered by a powerful dual chip architecture with Intel N97 + Nvidia Jetson Orin. Each arm has 5 degrees of freedom: 2 shoulder joints, one upper arm joint, one elbow joint and one forearm joint.
The core movement module is capable of a maximum joint torque of 300 N · m, a peak couple density of 203 N · m/kg and exceptional mobility with a walking speed of 2 m/s, together with a natural human -like run.
