Muon (robot)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The humanoid robot Myon

Myon is a humanoid robot that is being developed at the Neurorobotics Research Laboratory at the Beuth University of Applied Sciences in Berlin . It is used to research adaptive behaviors, which means that the robot should learn from environmental impressions and adapt its behavior accordingly. To do this, he must be able to move freely. Myon was first presented to the public at the International Design Festival DMY in June 2010.

The 1.25 meter tall and 16 kilogram heavy robot consists of six body parts - two arms, two legs, head and torso - each of which has its own power supply and control so that they can be separated from one another and put back together again during operation . Myon has 32 degrees of freedom . A camera is built into the head, microphones are in place of the ears, and a loudspeaker is used for communication. In addition, 238 additional sensor values ​​are recorded 100 times per second (angles, voltages, currents, temperatures, accelerations, forces).

In June and July 2015 Myon played at the Komische Oper Berlin in the opera My Square Lady . The research program Bringing Technology to People of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) of the High-Tech Strategy 2025 is advertised with a representation of muons in the title.
