Robots six years to depict people in three houses
Soulless researchers заставили Robots for six years to live in three houses and simulate the life of average families. Robots are turned on and off TV, use appliances and even sweating. The purpose of research - alaliz real consequences of energy-efficient construction and appliances.
To investigate the energy used three houses, in which in 2009 occupied the robots. Behavior is different depending on the house: the first was the most energy efficient, and the third repeats all the usual habits of the family, not zamorochennoy on technique and pay bills without thinking about how to reduce them. The second house was something between the two - it was equipped with easily accessible to the ordinary citizen the means to improve energy efficiency.
Refrigerator close and open on schedule. Morning light in the bathroom was included, and the shower was pouring into the empty bathroom. TV news shows in empty rooms. Washing machine and dishwasher is open daily. In the evening, the light was on in the entire apartment, and closer to the night was turned off and the house fell asleep. For this house was equipped with relevant applications and devices that help a person not required. But humanoid robots, similar to Bender, was not there.
Now, three houses put up for sale . Without robots.
According to the results of the experiment the most energy-efficient house used 55% less electricity than the control. The second house has saved 37%. Energy efficiency measures that have been investigated in the experiment, included in building codes district Campbell Creek in Tennessee.
Without the participation of the people in the house, scientists are faced with a problem: the level of humidity in the houses did not coincide with the one that happens in homes with people. I had to install «Human Body Emulation Systems» , ie simulators the human body, which slowly produces heat and water, trying to replicate human sweat and breath. "Sweated" and "breathe" in this car.
