Russian scientists are working on a humanoid robot that will replace cosmonauts on dangerous missions.
The anthropomorphic bot is a collaboration between robotics lab Android Technics and TsNIIMash, a Russian institute for building machines, according to Sputnik International. Alexander Permyakov, Director-General of Android Technics, told the news agency that these robots will be able to “completely replace humans in circumstances that are potentially hazardous or harmful.”
Android Technics robots will theoretically be able to explore a planet, set up generators, create research stations and build other necessary structures without a human nearby, Permyakov says. In effect, that means sending fewer cosmonauts into space, thereby cutting costs and potentially saving lives.
