Robots will run like Cockroaches over terrain
Oregon State University Researchers are trying to build the world’s first legged
that is capable of running. By this new technology robots will run effortlessly
over rough terrain. Engineers are developing a technique in which robots may
learn from this type of insects and other animals. Guinea hen have their own
remarkable abilities to run any surface. According to latest development in
technology engineers are using the a concept -“how animals use their legs to
manage energy storage and expenditure and why this is so important for running
smoothly. National Science Foundation is sponsor of this work. Humans not have
the ability of running like insects, so scientists now developing this project
in which robots will inspired from Cockroaches to run on any surface.
Cockroaches use fantastic technique of running and which is god gift to this
insect. Now new robots will climb over any type of path blocks. Also old
technology robots consume too much energy to run different surfaces. Using
Cockroaches behavior in robotics will give remarkable results. Now robots can
really run over rough ground, they can't afford to use so much of their
computing power and abilities and energy demand to accomplish this type of
effort. By new technology robots can recover from a change in path surface.
Engineers attached sensor to legs of robots and they also set leg angles to
specific direction so that robot can produce recovery. Now robots can
efficiently run over rough terrain without using significant computing power.
Some day a robot might be used to run into difficult situations like dangerous
areas, industrial sights, flood etc.

Ravindra Sharma: What do think that Hollywood Experts are necessary for
better training in Animation and Multimedia?
Answer: I think that in this field
Indians are more intelligent as compare to people of other countries. But
problem is here in India is that people are more interested to earn money they
are not interested to develop infrastructure, even they are not interested to
invest on maintenance of infrastructure, this fact is true for mainly in Jaipur
and Rajasthan. Because my company and I aware about Jaipur and Rajasthan. Many
other states and Cities of India are doing a lot like Bangalore, Hyderabad,
Mumbai, Chennai etc. Here in Jaipur computer vendors and other IT institutions may
compromise quality and services issue, they don’t think about customer’s benefit
for long term. For example we are launching a scheme – Desktop at price of only
Rs. 9999/- in which we are not earning so much.
Q2. What is market view about you.
Ms. Kalpana: Our target is
“Padho Rajasthan Badho Rajasthan” in which complete benefit goes to end user or
customer. Other vendors here in Jaipur are not looking this type of requirement
of customer where customer can get some new type of benefit. We are fulfilling
this. Our company “Creations” sold 3000 Laptops and PCs in last cycle. So we
have given business to Jaipur directly or indirectly and overall Laptop and PCs
market share raise. So our both companies understanding this type positive
market view.
Q3. Tell me about your other
company.
Ms. Kalpana: Other company
is “National Electronics and Home Appliances” which has a chain in all over
Rajasthan and it is headed by my husband.
Q4. Tell about your “Creations-
The Laptop Shoppe”.
Ms. Kalpana: Our
“Creations” has eight branches in Jaipur and Ninth also opening shortly. We are
not taking business from Jaipur but we are giving business to Jaipur and
Rajasthan. Other vendors are not realizing this fact, they think that
“Creations” company came here and captured our business, this thinking is not
fine. You see that we started our business in year 2007 at here in Jaipur, you
can compare the business of the year 2007 and today’s business of Jaipur,
business of 2007 was 40% of today’s Laptop and PCs business. So we increased 60%
business. My company’s engineers work 24x7 and our sales and support is very
organized.
Q5. Here in India PC and Laptop
users face a problem they have many troubles after purchasing PC or Laptop, they
are not satisfied with after sales service of local vendors.
Ms. Kalpana: This is true, our company now
launching another product of AMC, which cost at Rs. 999/-, in which we are
giving three year warranty that is on site AMC (first one year with parts and
two years service). Other is of Rs. 1999/- three year warranty with parts on PCs
and Laptops. So we can say that if end user’s Operating System corrupt 110 times
in this period, we’ll see this and customer will be happy by this after sales
service.
