1、专业第25课理工c阅读押题孙老师特别提示:理工c今年阅读没有新增文章,押题也就变成了猜题,极不靠谱,请大家做好无原题或押不中的准备!机会只给有准备的人。Opportunities are only for the prepared person. 理工c 阅读押题共2篇文章 第十一篇When our Eyes Serve our Stomach已考过第十九篇 Musical Robot Companion Enhances Listener Experience 第十九篇 Musical Robot Companion Enhances Listener Experience 理工阅读C 音乐
2、机器人伴侣提升音乐欣赏体验Shimi, a musical companion developed by Georgia Techs Center for Music Technology, recommends songs, dances to the beat and keeps the music pumping based on listener feedback. The smartphone-enableds, one-foot-tall robot is billed as an interactive musical friend.Shimi是由佐治亚理工大学音乐技术中心研发的
3、一款音乐伴侣。它可以根据听者的反馈推荐合乎节拍的歌曲、舞蹈;并且不断播放音乐。这款髙1英尺的机器人是由智能手机系统支持的,因此被标榜为一个可以互动的音乐朋友。 Shimi is designed to change the way that people enjoy and think about their music, said Professor Gil Weinberg, the robots creator. He will unveil the robot at the June 27th Google I/O conference in San Francisco. A band
4、 of three Shimi robots will perform for guests, dancing in sync with music created in the lab and composed according to its movements.Gil Weinberg教授是该机器人的发明者,他解释说:Shimi设计的宗旨是改变人们欣赏音乐、认识音乐的方式。他将在今年6月27日在旧金山的谷歌I/O大会上展示这款机器人。一个由三个机器人组成的乐队将为来宾演奏,并伴随音乐起舞。而音乐是根据不同的运动形式编制的。 Shimi is essentially a docking s
5、tation with a brain powered by an Android phone安卓手机. Once docked, the robot gains the sensing and musical generation capabilities of the users mobile device. In other words, if theres an app for that, Shimi is ready. For instance, by using the phones camera and face-detecting software, Shimi can fol
6、low a listener around the room and position its ears, or speakers, for optimal sound. Another recognition feature is based on rhythm and tempo. If the user taps a beat, Shimi analyzes it, scans the phones musical library and immediately plays the song that best matches the suggestions. Once the musi
7、c starts, Shimi dances to the rhythm. Shimi实际上是一个扩充基座,它的大脑由安卓手机控制。一旦连接上,机器人便从用户的移动装置获得传感和音乐生成能力。换言之,只要有应用程序,机器人便能使用。例如,通过手机的照相机和辨认脸型的软件,Shimi就能在房间周围跟踪到听众,然后安置好它的耳朵或扬声器,以确保输送最佳声音。另外一种识别特征是基于节奏和速度。如果用户打出某个(音乐)拍子,Shimi会对此进行分析,然后浏览手机的音乐库,并立即演奏最符合要求的音乐。一旦音乐响起来,Shimi就随韵律起舞。 Many people think that robots a
8、re limited by their programming instructions, said Music Technology Ph. D. candidate Mason Bretan. Shimi shows us that robots can be creative and interactive. Future apps in the works will allow the user to shake their head in disagreement or wave a hand in the air to alert Shimi to skip to the next
9、 song or increase/decrease the volume. The robot will also have the capability to recommend new music based on the users song choices and provide feedback on the music play list. 许多人认为机器人受到程序指令的限制,而Shiini给我们展示了机器人可以具有创造力和与人交互的能力。音乐技术博士研究生Mason Bretan如是说。正在研发中的程序将使用户能沟通过摇头或摆手表示不同意,来提醒Shimi跳到下一首歌或增减音量
10、。机器人还可根据用户对歌曲的选择推荐新音乐,并对音乐播放列表提供反馈。 Weinberg hopes other developers will be inspired to create more apps to expand Shimis creative and interactive capabilities. I believe that our center is ahead of a revolution that will see more robots in homes. Weinberg said.Weinberg希望其他研发者会因此获得灵感,开发更多的应用程序,来扩展Sh
11、imi的创新和交互功能。他说:我认为我们中心正在引领这场将更多机器人应用到家庭中去的变革。 Weinberg is in the process of commercializing Shimi through an exclusive licensing agreement will Georgia Tech. Weinberg hopes to make the robot available to consumers by the 2013 holiday season. If robots are going to arrive in homes, we think that they
12、 will be this kind of machines- small, entertaining and fun, Weinberg said. They will enhance your life and pave the way for more intelligent service robots in our lives.Weinberg正在通过获得佐治亚理工学院的独家授权来对Shimi进行商业推广。Weinberg希望到2013年的节日季消费者可购买到Shimi。Weinberg说:如果机器人进入家庭,我们认为就应该是这种类型的机器人:小巧、令人愉快和有趣,它们能提高我们的生
