According to the US Fortune website on the 22nd, the Human Machine Interface and Control Laboratory of the University of Arizona is developing a brain-controlled drone navigation interface that uses brain waves to direct a group of drones.
Current drones are primarily controlled by joysticks or mobile phones, which means that a pilot can only operate one drone at the same time. With brain-computer interface technology, a pilot can simultaneously control multiple drones to form a formation or spread them across different flight paths.
According to a project summary provided by the US Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the ultimate goal of the study was to find the operational mechanism of the human brain's “perceived multi-agent system information†and then extract “control commands†from it. In other words, scientists are trying to build a system that allows one to control a group of drones, and these drones can also receive different commands and behave differently.
The project's head, Panagiotis Artemiadis, said the study will be divided into several steps: “First we train humans so that they can imagine these behaviors. Then we train an algorithm that maps these behaviors to different parts of the brain. The activation is linked."
Artemiadis believes that the development of this brain control system has a real advantage, allowing an operator to simultaneously control multiple seemingly independent drones to perform different tasks. Brain-controlled drones can enhance search and rescue missions and search for larger areas more efficiently than a single drone.
For example, using a drone to simultaneously inspect 100 wind turbines, or to perform search and rescue missions more efficiently; the drone fleet may also be used to help people fight wildfires, they can track the speed of the fire, and are first responders and Firefighters provide a large amount of photos and data that is not possible with current technology; at large gatherings, drone fleets can perform real-time monitoring and send real-time video recordings to a wider range of areas to regulators.
According to Artemiadis, this “cluster control†mode of action is inspired by the behavior of natural groups such as birds and fish. “We can extract information about the desired collective behavior, such as flying in a specific formation, which is not possible on a normal manual control interface.â€
According to reports, according to the above research, drones and people will communicate through the transmission of brain waves.
“As long as there is a centralized controller that can communicate commands to the drone, the brain group control algorithm can even be extended to control hundreds of drones simultaneously.†Artemiadis said that he has successfully completed simultaneous control of three units. Human-machine test.
Artemiadis's drone research was funded by the US Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency and the US Air Force Scientific Research Office. The US Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency believes that the brain-controlled drone formation is quite safe, and its implementation is only a matter of time.
The electric patient lift realizes the safe transfer of paralyzed or injured patients or the elderly between beds, wheelchairs, seats, and toilets, which greatly reduces the work intensity of nursing staff, improves nursing efficiency, and reduces nursing risks. It can solve the movement, weighing and positioning control of the DPS patient's body position for the elderly, the disabled, the paralyzed patients, and the bedridden patients.
Features of medical Transfer Patient Lift
The caster legs can be adjusted arbitrarily within the range of 0°-38°, which is suitable for the angular needs of various wheelchairs, seats, toilets and hospital beds.
The height between the pillar and the lifting rod of the electric lift can be adjusted as needed (adjustment distance 0mm-50mm-100mm), and it can be lifted from the ground to a suitable position.
The electric lift has a safety emergency stop device.
During the lifting process, the patient can rotate 360° arbitrarily in order to obtain the best posture during transfer.
The push handle of the electric lift conforms to the principle of dynamics, which is convenient for pushing forward and backward or moving and rotating sideways.
The rear wheel is equipped with a brake device to prevent the lift from sliding when the patient is lifted, causing unreasonable injury to the nursing staff or the patient.
