Chinese scientists have unveiled this autonomous bicycle which, they say, combines brain-inspired and computer-science-based approaches to artificial intelligence.
At its heart is the Tianjic chip they developed at Tsinghua University, Beijing, in 2015.
This hybrid technology, they believe, has the potential to improve the capability of these systems to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI): a platform that could, in principle, perform any task that a human is capable of.
At this stage, at least, it allows this bicycle to respond to voice commands, keep out of trouble and detect and follow a person.
Luping Shi and colleagues describe their work in a paper published in the journal Nature.
“Using just one chip, we demonstrate the simultaneous processing of versatile algorithms and models in an unmanned bicycle system, realising real-time object detection, tracking, voice control, obstacle avoidance and balance control,” they write.
