ASIMO
ASIMO,
an acronym for Advanced Step
in Innovative Mobility, is a humanoid robot designed
and developed by Honda.
Introduced on 21 October 2000, ASIMO was designed to be a multi-functional
mobile assistant. With aspirations of helping those who
lack full mobility, ASIMO is frequently used in demonstrations across the world
to encourage the study of science and mathematics. At 130 cm (4 feet, 3 inches) tall and
54 kg (119 lbs), ASIMO was designed to operate in real-world
environments, with the ability to walk or run on two feet at speeds of up to 6
kilometres per hour (3.7 mph). In
the USA, ASIMO is part of the Innoventions attraction
at Disneyland and
has been featured in a 15-minute show called "Say 'Hello' to Honda's
ASIMO" since June 2005. The
robot has made public appearances around the world, including the Consumer Electronics
Show (CES), theMiraikan Museum and Honda Collection
Hall in Japan, and the Ars Electronica festival
in Austria.
Wind Turbines
A wind turbine is a machine for converting the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy.
Windmills :
If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill.
Wind Turbines :
generator.
Wind turbines are classified into two general types: horizontal axis and vertical axis.
A horizontal axis machine has its blades rotating on an axis parallel to the ground. A
vertical axis machine has its blades rotating on an axis perpendicular to the ground.
There are a number of available designs for both and each type has certain
advantages and disadvantages. However, compared with the horizontal axis type,
very few vertical axis machines are available commercially.
Parts of a wind turbine :
•The nacelle contains the key components of the wind turbine, including the gearbox, and the electrical generator.
•The tower of the wind turbine carries the nacelle and the rotor. Generally, it is an advantage to have a high tower, since wind speeds increase farther away from the ground.
•The rotor blades capture wind energy and transfer its power to the rotor hub.
•The generator converts the mechanical energy of the rotating shaft to electrical energy
•The gearbox increases the rotational speed of the shaft for the generator.
