Tradinno: the largest walking robot in the world

    image

    Yes, there is a replenishment in the ranks of record-breaking robots: the largest robot in the world is listed in the Guinness Book of Records, a walking robot that has legs, has wings and has a head that can “breathe” fire. Yes, it just so happened that Tradinno is a robotic dragon built by Zollner Elektronik AG. This robot, whose price is probably not one hundred thousand dollars, was built for the German traditional fun “Drachenstich”. The length of the robot is more than 15 meters. It weighs 11 tons.

    The robot shell is made of polyurethane, inside it has 984 hydraulic gears, a couple of hundred meters of pipelines and several thousand meters of wiring. In addition, the robot was equipped with 238 sensors, 65 axes, 272 hydraulic valves. In general, this robot looks almost like a children's toy dinosaur looks. He knows how to move, walk, arch his back, raise wings, shake his head, blink and breathe fire (yes, children's toys do not breathe fire). Only a robot is many times larger than a toy.

    Unfortunately, the robot cannot fly. But it behaves as a living fire-breathing dragon would probably behave. Chips from Texas Instruments and Fujitsu were used to give the robot signs of “living”.

    In general, an interesting figure for a German holiday, don’t you? I wonder where you can buy a ticket? :)
