Many countries around the world have taken artificial intelligence and robotics as an important issue to boost their economic growth and overall competitiveness. In this context, our country is not willing to lag behind in this field, so there is an urgent need for a lot of talent to help the development of this field. With the announcement of the 2021 Dharma Institute Green and Orange Prize winners, a Tsinghua professor with cute pear-shaped cheeks and a sweet smile has instantly become the subject of much attention and discussion.
The fact that this strange woman was able to receive the award on the same stage as Wei Shen proves that she is no ordinary person. She has a gentle and gentle demeanor, but she is a hardcore researcher and has the courage to be a woman of honor.
Do you know who this sweet-smiling female scientist is? She's been working in the field for a long time, and she's been working in the field for a long time. If you are interested, please move your hands to like and collect. This woman is known as the "Pearly Goddess" Zhao Hui Chan, after studying abroad, she decisively rejected the old U.S. top institutions of the hospitality; resolutely choose to serve the motherland, resulting in the field of robotics research and development in our field of great color!
Do your friends support Zhao Hui Chan's initiative to love her motherland without envying the rich and powerful? If you do, please put the word "I support" in the comments section! It's worth noting that Hui-Chan Zhao taught at Tsinghua, and in addition to vigorously promoting the rapid development of China's soft robotics field; she also led the team that developed the world's first pharyngeal swab sampling robot during the outbreak of the New Crown in a time of crisis.
She also made breakthroughs in the field of intelligent prosthetics, thus bringing great benefits to the majority of people with disabilities!
How did Chiu Hwee Chan make so many significant contributions? How did she grow up? In this video, please follow the grassroots to understand the legendary life of the goddess of scientific research, Chao Hui Chan.
Back in 1989, a little girl was born in Shandong Province, which has a rich cultural background, and she was Zhao Huizhan, who later honored her ancestors and won the glory of the country! She was born with a lovely pear-shaped face, and her slight smile was like a spring breeze, which made people feel cozy from the inside out. Zhao Hui Chan has grown up and become more and more elegant, with a smile that makes people feel sorry for her, and a smile that makes her look like a city! Not only does she have a super high face value, but she has also gradually shown a remarkable talent for learning, so where does this come from?
Hye-Chan Chiu exemplifies the true meaning of "wisdom" and "Zen". When other children are indulging in laughing and playing, or are unable to get away from their parents' care, Hye-Chan Chiu is always quietly thinking about her problems; However, when Hye-Chan Chiu was very young, she loved to build blocks. Zhao Hui-Chan loved building blocks so much that even the loud noises outside could not disturb her inner world, which was as clear as water. As she grew older, Zhao Hui Chan's extraordinary learning ability became more and more obvious.
Unlike most of the children who are worried about their studies, Zhao Hui Chan's parents never ask about her daughter's status in school; don't parents care about their children's academic excellence? In fact, her daughter is the top student in every exam, and no one can shake her position as the top student! What's more, if Zhao Hui Chan walks into the teacher's office with a book or a test paper in her hand, the teachers get nervous for some reason.
The teacher's most immediate reaction was not to think about teaching Zhao Hui-chan; instead, he was worried about the content of his previous lectures, and whether there would be any mistakes. From these small details, we can see that Zhao Hui Chan is truly an outstanding talent! When she entered middle school, she began to come into contact with the knowledge of physics; Like many extraordinary geniuses, Zhao Hui-Chan was also obsessed with this course; as if from the first moment she saw the physics textbook, she was y enamored with it and fell in love with it.
In the course of her studies, Zhao was particularly fascinated by mechanics and electricity! These obscure and complicated graphs are like a magic key in her eyes, leading her to open the door of the advanced hall of fame!
As the saying goes, interest is the best teacher, and this is indeed the wisdom of the ancients!
It is the fervent love from the bottom of her heart that prompts Zhao Huizhan to keep exploring at a deeper level. After she has mastered all the books, she greedily studies the extracurricular contents. Through hard and persistent exploration, Zhao mastered the knowledge of physics from solid and firm, and gradually to the depth and breadth of the excessive.
Zhao Hui Chan's whole study experience is just like a movie or TV drama protagonist, so which university does she prefer? Undisputedly, she naturally chose Tsinghua University, the country's top school, which most people can only see from afar, but can't be there! Although Zhao Hui Chan has already reached the peak of her academic career, she has not stopped moving forward at all. She knows that Tsinghua University is a place of hidden tigers and dragons, and all of them are chosen by thousands of people; if she is not careful, she will probably be left behind.
Unbelievable letter, originally focused on the mechanical engineering department of the study, but she made an amazing move, this is how it is? Zhao Huichan actually pointed to the second degree in economics. As you may know, there is no connection between Mechanical Engineering and Economics; if so, why did she make such a choice? There is probably only one thing that can explain it: how can a normal person understand the world of a god of learning?
It is worth mentioning that, despite the elite of Tsinghua University, the courses are all very difficult; so many students can only barely concentrate on one major, so they are afraid that they are not good enough. However, Zhao Huizhan has the confidence and energy to study two unrelated majors. This is a reflection of the fact that she is far superior to the normal population in terms of learning talent and diligence, and is even a school bully in the eyes of ordinary people!
Is Zhao Hui Chan's dream realized? As the saying goes, the hard-working people will not be disappointed; at Tsinghua's graduation ceremony, she held a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in her left hand, and a bachelor's degree in Economics in her right hand, which was the most dazzling existence at that time! At this moment, some people may ask, what was Zhao Hui Chan studying during her university years?
When she entered the Department of Mechanical Engineering, she became interested in the field of robotics; when she learned that she could design and develop various forms of robots by relying on cutting-edge high-end knowledge, her heart became more and more filled with excitement and joy! Intelligent robots can mimic not only animals and plants, but also humans.
We have to recognize that although Tsinghua University has a good track record in this field, there is still a gap with the top international universities. In order to learn more detailed, more cutting-edge scientific and technological theories, Zhao Huizhan set the ambitious goal of studying abroad. In the face of a wide range of foreign universities, how should she choose? In fact, Ms. Zhao already has a favorite school, which is Cornell University in New York State.
As one of the most famous members of the Ivy League, the university boasts the highest level of scientific research in the world, and has produced more than 60 Nobel Prize winners over the past 150 years, making it the most sought-after scientific research center in the world. With her excellent grades, Zhao Huizhan instantly stood out from the crowd of competitors and was given a ticket to Cornell University!
She is so excited and happy to be in a brand-new learning and living environment across the ocean; however, she is still looking forward to improving her own strengths, and to continue to learn from this top campus, so that she can realize her dream as soon as possible in a fulfilling and busy environment. Will Zhao Hui Chan's journey to study abroad be as smooth as ever? The moment she entered the campus, she was still fascinated by all the new things in front of her.
But after a period of time, she was plunged into an unprecedented panic and confusion, which made this girl, who has always been a smooth and easy-going person, realize the frustration of her heart! What exactly is Zhao Hui Chan's problem? Despite her outstanding performance in spoken English at home, many serious problems were revealed when she was in a pure English context.
Firstly, Zhao Hui Chan was unable to communicate fluently with her classmates around her, as the English language teaching in China is quite different from the local culture abroad; she could only guess the words and roughly understand the meaning of each other's words. But when they encountered students with dialects, the two could only have a simple conversation through body language.
Secondly, due to the obvious language difference, Zhao Huizhan even found it hard to understand what the professor was saying in class; while she was trying to figure out the previous point, the professor had already moved on to the next part of the lesson. As the cycle of events repeats itself, Zhao Huican is struck by a great deal of frustration; during a certain period of time, she often seems to be depressed, and all of her previous enthusiasm for deepening her scientific and technological theories has already been extinguished by the cruel reality! As time passes, Zhao Hui Chan can never find the direction to break through the constraints; in the bad mood, the pressure in her heart multiplies, she gradually loses all the enthusiasm for learning, so much so that she develops an attitude of self-abandonment.
These hard and difficult years seem to be described by words like muddled and chaotic!
Is it possible that Zhao Hui Chan has been crushed by her immediate predicament? Will she still be able to sweep away the gloom and revitalize her reputation as the Pride of Heaven? If you like this video, please like it and pay attention to it, and recommend it to more friends and relatives, so let's continue to look down!
After sinking for a long time, Zhao Hui Chan finally came to her senses; she had traveled through the domestic elite with ease, so how could she be defeated by the small difficulties in front of her? She couldn't allow herself to become a bottom-feeder, so she started to catch up. Zhao Huizhan didn't miss any opportunity to practice her speaking skills, and often immersed herself in listening tapes and related video materials. She also took the initiative to have in-depth communication with other students to improve her ability to express herself in a subtle way.
Whenever she attends a class, Zhao Huizhan also records the content of the professor's lectures, so that she can deliberate and digest them in private. This strong and persistent girl has been fighting against all kinds of phenomena since then, what does this mean? In addition to suffering from the pain of missing her family and her hometown, Zhao Hui-Chan has also had to fight against many setbacks and difficulties! Despite the pressure of life and study, Zhao Hui Chan feels unable to breathe, but she still smiles at everything with an optimistic and positive attitude.
The students and professors around her looked at this student's peach blossom pearly smile, as if the air has become sweet and warm; such a powerful infectious smile, so that the people around her are very encouraged!
As the years go by, Zhao Hui-chan has overcome the language barrier perfectly; however, a small incident appeared, which inspired her more and more to continue to explore the fighting spirit, and what happened during the period?
One day, a poster competition was held on campus, aiming at letting students present their research topics visually and innovatively; after a fierce competition, Zhao Hui Chan actually won the competition! After this, she instantly regained her confidence and devoted herself to her research project. All these stories reveal the truth that people who love to laugh will not have bad luck!
A few years passed quickly, and Zhao graduated from Cornell University, and then went to the laboratory alone to continue to attack. As we all know, a successful researcher, in addition to the necessary professional skills, is also inseparable from a great leader; and Hui-Chan Zhao has also met her uncle who understands her, who will he be? That's right, the man who tapped into the talent of the gifted girl and made it sublime is Robert, a renowned professor and mentor.
Dramatically, Zhao Hui Chan's research direction is very different from her mentor's; however, Robert continues to inspire his students to be bold in their research and to follow their own instincts. Not only that, Robert also provides critical guidance and assistance to Hui-Chan during her experiments. How does a mentor help a student's research?
At one point, Hui-Chan was experimenting with a sensor material, and her mentor hit the nail on the head by suggesting that she combine prosthetics with sensing to create an intelligent new prosthesis. This novel and sincere suggestion instantly made Zhao Hui-Chan feel like discovering a new continent. In fact, deep down in her heart, utilizing advanced technology for the benefit of human beings is her true ultimate vision.
Did Zhao Huizhan complete the research project or not? Although she has a solid theoretical foundation, it is not easy for her to turn the words in the book into reality. Inspired by the research direction, Zhao Huizhan put herself in the lab; through many days and nights of hard work, she finally developed an intelligent mechanical prosthesis.
It is worth mentioning that the prosthesis is far more practical and intelligent than ordinary prostheses; patients can not only feel the hardness of objects, but also touch things to the structure and texture if they wear this prosthesis. This new wave of prosthetics, which is not traditional, is undoubtedly a benefit that patients have been dreaming of. With the success of the research project, Zhao Huizhan then condensed the results into an important paper; it was published in an authoritative international journal immediately afterward.
Unexpectedly, the paper caused a huge stir and was selected as one of the most important research articles in the journal since its inception. The journal has always been the world's leading scientific research journal, and is highly respected and loved by many of the world's top scientists. What does Huei-Chan Zhao think about her achievement? She is still not satisfied with the results she has achieved, so she wants to move on to a higher level of education.
When her mentor Robert learns of this, he writes a letter to Harvard professor Robert Wood, saying that Cornell's best graduate still wants to reach the top, and that he hopes your school will give her a chance! Can Zhao Hui Chan enter the Harvard Hall of Fame? The answer is naturally yes! After completing her PhD at Cornell, she went on to study at Harvard University, where she pursued a post-doctoral degree in Applied Engineering.
Harvard's reputation has long gone unmentioned, and from this moment on, Zhao Hui Chan is about to start a real highlight mode in her life. What kind of research will she be engaged in when she enters Harvard? Under the guidance of Prof. Wood, Zhao began her research on soft robots!
And what is a soft robot? Generally speaking, the robots often seen on the market are mostly composed of many hard metal parts; this kind of angular, mechanized robots, the source of power is the motor power; in life, production will inevitably have some drawbacks, leaving a lot of safety hazards. Soft robots rely on shape memory compounds, electroelastomers, and other smart materials to power them, completely eliminating the need to rely on the power system.
Scientists have envisioned jellyfish, octopuses, earthworms, and many other ideal forms, drawing on the best of nature's creatures. What purpose does a soft robot serve? If a landslide occurs somewhere, and rescuers can't get through some narrow, dangerous areas, the robot can play a huge role in replacing humans to carry out the difficult survey work. Did Amy Zhao develop a soft robot during her time at Harvard?
She was inspired by insects, such as flies, to try to develop microbots. The idea was to simply create a tiny robot, and then install two pairs of wings on top of it; but the wings are also high-tech, relying on synthetic muscle tissue; the robot's wings would vibrate at a frequency of about 300 times, according to the preconceived idea.
In order to more closely resemble a real-life fly, thousands of parts were developed for just one pair of compound eyes; this, along with other components, made the robot extremely complex to build. Based on the lack of ready-made components and energy power systems, Zhao Hui Chan could only design and build it by herself; With the assistance of Prof. Wood, she finally completed the development of the micro-robot. The finished robot not only has a domineering appearance, but also can change various postures such as flying and rotating; it is also able to complete difficult actions such as stopping and turning in mid-air.
After the success of this experiment, Zhao Hui-Chan combined with the development of prosthetics experience, so that their own goals are gradually inclined to the organic combination of soft robots and doctors, and therefore can greatly shorten the cycle of treatment, for patients to reduce the pain and suffering of the disease. Through unremitting exploration and struggle, Zhao Huizhan finally successfully completed the postdoctoral research content. It was this special learning process that established the foundation for the direction of her research.
Zhao's outstanding research and development ability and meticulous thinking ability made Harvard professors admire her. In view of this, the university's top management has promised her all kinds of favorable conditions in the hope that she can serve them wholeheartedly. Will she accept? Despite the promise of staying in the U.S., she loves her home country more than anything else; no matter how attractive and favorable the conditions are, she can't be stopped from returning to her home country!
In 2018, Zhao Hui Chan returned to her alma mater as a professor with significant scientific achievements and many honors. A year later, the city of Wuhan was hit by an inexplicable new crown epidemic; it seems that since this time, nucleic acid testing has become a necessary process to verify health. Many healthcare workers insisted on taking throat swabs despite their own safety. It is important to realize that the safety of healthcare workers is not guaranteed at a time when the new crown is ravaging the world.
At this critical moment, Zhao Hui-chan was highly expected by the national authorities to develop a soft robot to replace the white angel. After accepting the major task, Zhao Hui-Chan immediately led the team into the research; due to the lack of any reference for this robot, they can only conduct research in many aspects such as robot cost, work efficiency, functionality, etc.; In the repeated experiments and exploration, Zhao Hui-Chan's team has also been confused, and there has been a loss; however, once you think of the country and the people's trust, you immediately have the courage and strength to continue to struggle. The team has the courage and strength to continue to fight for the cause.
Through eight months of hard work, the world's first pharyngeal swab sampling robot successfully interviewed. After this, Zhao Huichan has devoted herself to research on artificial bones and new sensors.
Her invention of the flexible arm and photoconductive sensors combined with the prosthesis, not only can make the patient has no different from the normal ability to perceive, but also the price of the people, only 300 yuan, undoubtedly let the high-tech products into the actual welfare of the people! In order to mark Zhao Hui Chan's outstanding contribution to the country and the people, she was awarded the authoritative Green Orange Prize; and beside her, the recipient of the prize is Beida Weishen, who is holding a steamed bun in one hand and mineral water in the other!
After receiving the huge prize of one million dollars, Zhao Huichan did not use it for self-enjoyment, instead, she did not hesitate to use it for expanding her lab for more excellent talents. Because of patriotic scientists like Zhao Hui-chan, the motherland will become more and more powerful and prosperous; their spirit of not craving for fame and fortune, and their dedication to benefit the people is worth learning and remembering forever! The video ends here, welcome to leave your comments and discussions in the comment section, let's see you next time!
