ROBOTS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS

Since the beginnings of civilisation man has had a fascination for a human-like creation that would assist him. Man had discovered mechanics and the means of creating complex mechanisms which would perform repetitive functions. Technological advances were slow but there were more complex machines, generally limited to a very small number, which performed more grandiose functions such as those invented by Hero of Alexandria. We are interested in achievement associated with the construction of military robots, space robots, medical robots, etc.

Boeing introduced the most powerful Hydrogen UAV


Environmentally friendly intelligence - is not only a tribute to the "green fashion". Hydrogen - the high-energy fuel, designed to maximize output per unit of weight (photos Boeing).
The new reconnaissance aircraft from the U.S. Boeing Corporation is able to survive in the sky, without landing and refueling of four days.
New named Phantom Eye. It's pretty big for a UAV unit - the scope of its wings is 45.7 meters. He climbs to a height of nearly 20 kilometers and remains there up to 96 hours at a time. Its cruising speed is 278 km / h, and the payload (camera, communication systems) attains the weight of 204 pounds.



At the presentation of news in St. Louis, Darryl Davis (Darryl Davis), president of Boeing Phantom Works, said: "Phantom Eye - the first of its kind. It can open new markets for data collection and communication" (illustrations by Boeing).

Phantom Eye - not the first nor the second hydrogen drone, but the most powerful and lifting. The company Boeing, by the way, a couple of years ago created the world's first manned flight to the fuel cell.

The new machine is capable of providing image forces anywhere in the world where the "ghost eyes" may come on their own, starting from the territory of the continental U.S.. This same unit will serve as relay conversations between the individual combat units.

Later this summer will be a Phantom Eye Research Center Dryden (NASA Dryden Flight Research Center), where he will prepare for the first flight scheduled for 2011. Already the first test flight will last 4-8 hours.
