A team of engineers and researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST) is currently developing a humanoid robot named ‘Pibot’ that can fly an aircraft without needing to modify the cockpit.
What is Pibot?
Pibot is the world’s first humanoid pilot.
It can fly an aero plane just like a human pilot by manipulating all the single controls in the cockpit, which is designed for humans.
Key Features: It uses artificial intelligence and robotics to understand flight manuals and control the plane in real-time.
– Pibot’s arms and fingers can control flight instruments even during turbulence.It has cameras to monitor the aircraft and manage controls.
– It remembers global flight charts for accurate navigation and can handle emergencies.
– Pibot communicates with air traffic controllers and humans using voice synthesis, acting as a pilot or first officer.
