We’ve all seen B-roll video footage of robots busily building cars on an assembly line, spinning and whirling with impressive precision and nary a human in sight. But you’ve probably never seen anything like this.
Video: Amazing Robot-Controlled Flight Simulator
Key Takeaways:
- Researchers in Germany, specifically aeronautics firm DLR and robotics company KUKA, have developed the world's first robot-based flight simulator.
- The simulator uses a large industrial robotic arm to move an airplane cockpit, providing pilots with an unprecedentedly realistic illusion of flight.
- This innovative technology aims to revolutionize pilot training globally and has already received the euRobotics Technology Transfer Award for its design.
