Meet Kengoro the terrifying Japanese 'brobot' that SWEATS to keep itself cool
Humans and robots have one thing in common – when they work hard, they overheat. Now, Japanese researchers have designed a robot that'sweats' in order to stay cool, allowing it do push-ups for 11 minutes straight without burning out its motors. Kengoro's skeletal structure is designed to let water seep through porous layers in its frame, which eventually evaporates to cool its 180 motors. Japanese researchers have designed a robot that'sweats' in order to cool down, allowing it do push-ups for 11 minutes straight without burning out its motors. Kengoro's skeleton, or metal frame, is made of aluminum and each'bone' was printed using a laser that sintered the powered metal The bones were designed with a porous layers that retain water.
