The robots Murata showed a beautiful cheerleading

Now the tumbler is no surprise, but for many Soviet people, this was the first toy in life. She showed the children the laws of physics that allow the doll to sway from side to side and never to fall. Japanese company Murata Manufacturing has decided to improve roly-poly doll, by applying to it the laws of robotics. The result is a funny robot cheerleader balancing on a ball. Cheerleading is a spectacular performance dance teams to entertain the audience in between the games in the stadiums.

Built-in gyroscopes and infrared sensors enable the robot to achieve perfect stability and synchronicity in the dance. Instead of wheels the Murata robots use ball, with which they keep the balance in motion. To stay upright, they help three modern gyroscopic sensor using the technology of reverse pendulum for detecting the angle of inclination, the newspaper Daily Mail.





Similar gyroscopes are found in digital cameras, navigation systems and even more systems, electronic stability control (ESC) holding the car on the road and prevent skidding.

Additionally, each robot is equipped with four infrared sensors and five ultrasonic microphones, through which it detects the surrounding objects even in complete darkness. Tracking the speed of sound and light waves, the system determines the mutual position of the robots on the plot with total area of 16 square meters.



In addition, Murata together with Matsuno lab at Kyoto University have developed an advanced technology control group of 10 robots. Communication machines occurs wirelessly and is controlled by a special program. The researchers hope that one day this technology will find application in the transport sector.

Robotic Murata cheerleaders will be shown at the exhibition CEATEC 2014, which will be held from 7 to 11 October in Tokyo.
