TOP 5 MODERN CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY 2020
Systimber -https://www.Systimber.Com/
This is an innovative construction system that provides solid timber which is easy to use, efficient, and time saver. Systimber comes in beams of wood that are co-joined together vertically using specified spacers that help in maintaining the required distance between the two beams. The spacers also provide balance thus allowing movement of the wood. Spaces in between are made airtight by the help of a flexible EPDM that adjusts to the movement of the wood thus providing stability under any circumstance. The system is patented worldwide and comes in different colors which you can choose from.
Isotex academy-https://en.Blocchiisotex.Com/isotex-academy/
Over the years eco-sustainable houses have been brought up using Isotex in vast areas of Europe. The system is considered as number one in the wood cement sector across the world. Isotext is offering its customers a chance to know more about their products through an online seminar in their academy that would be first of its kind. There will be video courses offered to explain in detail the various ways of laying Isotex wood slabs and blocks. The short videos will also educate users on the advantages of using Isotex to meet their construction needs.
Stavoblock-https://www.Stavoblock.Cz/
Stavblock has been preferred during construction and can be used in several ways such as Facade cladding. The blocks are made from natural materials which make them thin and light thus the best option to consider whenever you are reconstructing or renovating older buildings. The facade is waterproof, heat-insulating, and does not require maintenance after installation. Use stavo block today to give your home walls, fences, pavements, and staircase unique and elegant look.
INSULATED CONCRETE FORM-https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUcgLaT4AM2vdogAvvk3nUw
This is a system of formwork comprising of concrete made through extreme thermal insulation thus making it a permanent substitute for exterior and interior construction purposes. The forms interlock with each other hence forming a unit that is filled with concrete and later on used as walls of a structure or floors of a building. Just as other concrete the formwork has to be reinforced with steel to give it the stability it requires.ICF structure is easy to build and thus saves costs, time, and come in portable packs.
H + H aerated concrete Multiplade-https://www.hplush.dk/
Aerated concrete is made from cement which is mixed with various materials and maintained in such a manner that reduces its density without interfering with its strong nature. The blocks from the process of aeration are conjoined using a mortar and the final product can be used for floors, walls, and roofs. These blocks are lightweight and therefore easy to carry. They also are heat resistant and provide good insulation of sound and heat.

MOTOBOT Meets The Doctor (Valentino Rossi)



The MOTOBOT autonomous motorcycle-riding humanoid robot finally meets Valentino Rossi face to face. How does Rossi react to seeing MOTOBOT riding the YZF-R1M in person? One of the engineers behind the project explains MOTOBOT’s current development progress as it begins racetrack riding tests.

10 Amazing Robot Animals That Really Exist

10 Amazing Robot Animals That Really Exist



10 Amazing Robotic Animals
If you're new, Subscribe! → goo.gl/djmfuX
Technology has really come a long way! And a great way to see that is through the creation of robots. We all played with remote controlled cars at some point and a lot of us today have drones — these pretty much represent the basic concept of robotics: they are machines that perform tasks as they follow our instructions. But what we see in stores doesn’t compare to what is happening inside the labs around the world. Everyday, groups of engineers come together trying to find ways to further develop robotic projects, which a lot of them are inspired by things in nature. Today I’ll be showing you 10 Amazing Robotic Animals — some of them can be easily mistaken for a real animal! Stay tuned all the way to number one and see how far technology has come!
Smartbird
The Smartbird is an ornithopter, which is pretty much an aircraft with flapping wings. It was designed by Festo’s Bionic Learning Network. The Smartbird can take off, fly and land by itself, which makes it a very autonomous robot. It’s one of the robots that best imitates the flight of real birds. Its wings in fact, not only flap but can even twist. An electrical motor in its body, allows its wings to move in a vertical way. When you look at it, the Smartbird can fly almost as perfectly as as an actual bird. From far, you might even think it’s a real one! The Smartbird is a robot that can help researchers understand the birds' flight better, and even improve the way in which airplanes are designed. It can also help in the further development of drone technology and other flying robots in the future.
The Bionic Ant
The Smartbird is not the only robot that Festo has created. They’re actually one of the leading companies in the development of robotic animals. Next on this list, I have another one of Festo’s creations: a swarm of bionic ants. These ants, that are 13 centimeters long, have been designed like real ants, not only on the outside, but also in their behavioral patterns. These ants can communicate with each other to carry on tasks as a community. They come with a small camera within the eyes region and some monitors which allow them to move and perform. They have two batteries that allow them to function wirelessly for up to 40 minutes. If the battery runs out, they can step to the dock and recharge through their antennas.
The Bionicopter
And once again...another creation by Festo! I really want to introduce you to other companies, but the team at Festo is really good at making robotic animals! The bionicopter is one of the most efficient flying robots due to the fact that it is more maneuverable than the others. It’s also known as “The Dragonfly Robot” — although with a body of 19 inches long, it’s quite larger than the real insect! However, this robot moves its wings just like the creature that inspired it. This robot can fly to the front, to the back and make an abrupt stop in mid air. The bionicopter is a great example of what wireless communication can become. This robot can follow commands in real time thanks to its sensors that allow it to assess its surroundings at the same time it receives instructions. This robot is not only smart and efficient, but it’s also very good looking — Its body is covered in blue polyester, which makes it a very beautiful and elegant robot.
The Bionic Kangaroo
When you think of kangaroos, the first thing that might come to your mind is...Australia! But also the way they jump from place to place. With the bionic kangaroo, the creators have implemented a mechanism of repercussion that allows the robot to recover, store and use energy with every jump — just like a real one! The bionic kangaroo is smaller than the real one, and is controlled through an armband that tracks the arm gestures of its bearer so the kangaroo knows where and when to hop. This robot, however, is not meant for you to have it at home, so don’t expect to see it in stores yet! Festo designed it with the hopes of finding ways to use energy more efficiently in the creation of new tools. Since having a pet kangaroo is not really a thing, I do hope they sell this robot to us one day!

How to Make a Remote Controlled Spider Robot!!

How to Make a Remote Controlled Spider Robot!!!



In this video I show you how to make a remote controlled spider robot.
Clarification… The introduction of the video is stop motion animation, it was only done to visually enrich the content and to exemplify how the idea was born without using a real spider. I do not intend that you believe that the final result of the product is the same.
Also keep in mind that remote control does not always mean that it is Radio Control, since you can control something remotely even when using a physical connection.
Keep in mind:
The content shown in this video is experimental, everything was done during the recording, if you plan to recreate what is shown here, be careful when using the tools and keep in mind that you must have basic knowledge of electronics and basic tools.
Read the following recommendations if you plan to recreate it.
-Don't make the same size shown here, in spite of having included other 2 motors, a 9-volt battery was used at the end to move and the motors were burned after a while of operation, the problem is solved if it does smaller maybe half or less.
— Get a battery holder for 4 units, it's better and cheaper than doing it manually.
-The engines have to be all similar.
