The homemade robot will be sent into Earth’s orbit during space tests of the new space transport vehicle. According to what was reported by Professor Azer Babayev during the robot’s presentation at the Kapitsa Technology Park.

Babayev explained: “Models of the first experimental vehicle that will be launched into space as part of preparationLunar missionsIt will be unoccupied. “So we proposed that a human robot replace the astronaut in the spacecraft.”

The professor pointed out that the human-shaped robot developed at the university, which resembles an astronaut, is ideal for studying the extent of adaptation to the vehicle inside and outside it in space conditions. He explained that these space robots will operate with regular lithium batteries because of their ability to produce strong electrical currents, but he did not rule out the development of completely new batteries for long-term flights, including nuclear energy sources.

He said that the algorithms developed by Russian scientists successfully compete with their foreign counterparts. In particular, engineers from the university recently managed to win one of the…Competitions that took place in South Koreausing home-made software to manage the operation of a Chinese robot. Russian scientists succeededBreaking the world recordThe Russian robot also outperformed its Chinese counterparts equipped with other programs.

The professor pointed out that progress in developing the Russian humanoid robot is restricted by the limited number of local robots, knowing that Russian scientists have so far assembled only one copy of this machine, which does not allow engineers to take risks in improving the robot’s design. The appearance of the second or third robot will allow developers to accelerate development and make this machine faster and dexterous, as well as develop its reduced model that can participate in international competitions and compete with similar Chinese models.

Information about the Russian robotSERVANT

The artificial intelligence robot SERVANT was unveiled at the third international robotics festival RoboScience Hackathon 2025, which is being held this week at the Kapitsa technology park near Moscow. Within this presentation, the Russian robot and three Chinese machines of the same category participated in a short group “race,” and the local robot also fired an arrow from a bow toward a target.

The distinctive feature of the Russian robot is the unique design of the feet of this machine, where all the motors are placed in the thigh area, while the robot’s knee and ankle are designed in a way that allows it to perform effective foot swings and very soft and smooth steps. Thanks to this, the robot does not “trample” as hard as most other machines of this type manufactured in China and other foreign countries.
