神奇"機器人手套"讓你秒獲超人之力
The glove that gives you super-human strength: Nasa device could DOUBLE your gripping power
Factory workers are about to get super-human strength thanks to Nasa's 'Robo-Glove'.
有了美國航天局（NASA）研發的"機器人手套",工廠工人將獲超人之力.
The glove helped scientists control Robonaut 2, a humanoid that provided engineering and technical assistance on space mission just like Star Wars' R2-D2.
科學家曾用這一手套控制第二代航天機器人,這種機器人和《星球大戰》電影中的R2大神一樣可以在執行航天任務中提供工程與技術支持.
But now it has been given power-boosting technologies thanks to a partnership between General Motors and medical technology company Bioservo, who hope that it will help workers on factory floors.
現在"機器人手套"在通用汽車公司與醫療科技公司Bioservo的合作研發下又配備了力量增強的技術,這兩個公司希望該手套可以幫助到工廠工人.
Using a combination of sensors that function like human nerves, muscles and tendons the new Power Glove has the same dexterity of the human hand - but with mammoth strength.
手套里內置傳感器（其功能類似人類的神經、肌肉和肌腱）,使得這一新型動力手套與人手一般靈活——同時還力大無窮.
The ground-breaking muscle-mimicking technologies could help employees in health care and manufacturing industries where a strong grip is necessary to get the job done.
這種開創性的肌肉仿真技術可以幫助到健康醫療以及制造業的工作人員,因為要完成這兩個行業的工作往往需要強大的握力.
The glove helps stops tired hands from aching after a long day's work and will make it easier for workers to, quite literally, get a grip.
工人戴上手套,即便工作一整天,手部肌肉也不會酸痛,這還真是"抓住竅門"了.
It could slash the amount of force an assembly operator needs to hold a tool during an operation in half.
在車間作業中,戴了手套的裝配工人在操作工具時只需使一半力.
An assembly operator in a factory may use 15- to 20 pounds of force to hold a tool during an operation, for example.
比如說,某次作業中工廠裝配工人操作工具可能用到的力是15到20磅（相當于6.81到9.08公斤）.
But with the robotic glove, the factory operator might need to apply only five to 10 pounds of force.
