Scientists have named the world's first outdoor research "ghost" robot ANDI.
Accordingly, it has the ability to walk, radiate heat, shake and breathe like humans. Such possibilities could help experts learn more about the effects and recovery mechanisms of the human body from severe heat waves.
This miracle was done by scientists from Arizona State University (ASU).
According to Express.co.uk, ANDI has 35 different surface sensor areas, including thermomassage sensors, temperature sensors and pores.
MailOnline notes that the specially designed cooling channel makes it the first walking robot suitable for outdoor use. This means scientists can test it in arid desert conditions.
Check heat resistance
Konrad Rykaczewski, associate professor at the Institute of Physics, Transport and Energy (USA) and co-head investigator of ASU's new research project to assess the impact of extreme heat on human health, explained that although there are many studies focusing on the impact of extreme heat on humans, there are still many missing gaps.
He and his colleagues are trying to comprehensively understand such impacts to come up with design andQualization solutions.
Currently, there are 10 ANDI models available globally. While most of them are used by sportswear companies for testing clothes, only two of them are used for scientific purposes.
Jenni Vanos, associate professor at ASU, explained that it is impossible to place humans in harsh and dangerous heat situations for the purpose of testing.
However, there have been life-threatening high-pressure situations in some parts of the world, and scientists are yet to fully understand what has happened.
ANDI is a great support tool that can help scientists find the effects and how to overcome them.
Inside the temperature chamber, which researchers call the "Warm room", ANDI experiences solar radiation, wind and temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius.
In between different tests, ANDI can be re- Programmed to suit different human organs, based on age, weight and other factors worth considering. The shelter can also be adjusted to simulate different temperature scenarios, suitable for any dry area in the world.
