6. Toyota THR3
The next advanced robot has been successfully developed by a leading company in Japan. Toyota THR3 is a third generation robot with artificial intelligence, this robot can be used to help meet human needs.
After successfully demonstrating its ability to play lego and play musical instruments in the previous generation, Toyota again stole the attention by launching a robot with the latest, more innovative technology. THR3 itself is an artificial intelligence robot whose program is equipped with an advanced synchronization technology system that can be controlled by humans using the Virtual Reality Console.
7. Sanbot
Sanbot is a humanoid robot developed by the company QIHAN Technology, China. QIHAN company itself is a company that focuses on developing robot technology, artificial intelligence, and also video analysis. Sanbot is a robot that is programmed to perform various functions.
Because of this ability, the Sanbot Robot is able to support various activities in several fields of work. Ranging from retail, education, health, and security to customer-oriented industries that want to deliver intelligent and personalized services.
8. Walker
The next most advanced robot is called Walker. is a humanoid service robot created by the China-based company UBTECH Robotics. Although relatively new, the company is able to steal the public’s attention thanks to the technology it has initiated. This is evidenced by its success to enter as a finalist for The Best of CES in 2019
CES itself is an annual technology event that is quite influential on technological development. As a humanoid service robot, Walker is known to be able to assist and facilitate various daily human activities. He is also programmed to be able to communicate and do various housework according to his employer’s orders.
9. AlphaDog
Alpha Dog is a dog-shaped robot that can be used as a friend.
