American Company Makes Historic Moon Landing

American Company Makes Historic Moon Landing

Handout photo shows IM-1 Lunar Lander in Lunar Orbit/ Odysseus passes over the near side of the Moon following lunar orbit insertion on 21FEB2024. The lander continues to be in excellent health in lunar orbit. The Odysseus lunar lander, nicknamed "Odie" or IM-1, has become the first US-made spacecraft to touch down on the moon in 50 years. The lander is upright and starting to send data, according to Odie's developer, Intuitive Machines. Odie is the first commercial spacecraft to make touchdown on the moon. The milestone comes after a failed US lunar lander mission last month. Photo by Intuitive Machine via ABACAPRESS.COM

A robotic hand developed by OMRON and the University of Tokyo that repeatedly performs precise insertion

A robotic hand developed by OMRON and the University of Tokyo that repeatedly performs precise insertion

Professor Masatoshi Ishikawa of the University of Tokyo and Omron have developed a robot hand that can perform precision work by groping at a speed of 1,000 times per second. When the ring hits the end of the cylinder and the angle shifts, the robot adjusts its three fingers to restore the shift. This is a high-speed reproduction of the way a human being searches for the right angle to fit a ring using the senses of his or her fingertips. In the past, even with the use of force sensors, it took time to process, and insertion and removal took 1-2 seconds. In the automation of precision assembly, it is difficult to keep the positional accuracy within 10 micrometers, including robots and jigs. If this can be handled by hand or control, the range of precision work will expand. Photo taken on November 27, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images

TEPCO releases images of interior of Fukushima No. 2 reactor

TOKYO, Japan - Supplied photo shows the inside of the primary container of the No. 2 reactor at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, taken before the insertion of an industrial endoscope. On Jan. 19, 2012, Tokyo Electric Power Co. inserted an industrial endoscope into the reactor that suffered meltdown following the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, in the first attempt by the plant's operator to directly check the interiors of the crippled reactors at the complex. Due to the effects of radiation, the image is blurry and has many spots. (Photo courtesy of Tokyo Electric Power Co.)(Kyodo)
