IT之家 8 月 22 日消息，由北京市人民政府、中央广播电视总台等单位联合主办的第二届世界人形机器人运动会今天开幕。本次比赛将持续到 26 日，共设置 51 个项目、1300 多场比赛。今年竞技赛新增跳远、举重、拔河、乒乓球等高强度对抗项目。本届运动会正赛将于 8 月 22 日至 26 日在国家速滑馆“冰丝带”举行，将举行 51 个项目共 1301 场比赛，吸引 666 支队伍携 2056 台机器人参赛，竞赛项目、参赛队伍全面提质扩容。 Good news for flyers who opt for the window seat, your boarding zone will soon be prioritized on United Airlines.According to an internal memo from the Chicago-based carrier obtained by ABC News, starting on Oct. 26, the airline will change its boarding process for economy class passengers that will speed up getting seated and situated by two minutes.
United Airlines' new WILMA boarding process
"WILMA" boarding, which was tested at four domestic line stations, seats economy window passengers first followed by middle seats and aisle seats.While this does not affect pre-boarding groups, premium cabins and flyers with premier or alliance status before Group 3, the revision ensures that window seats and exit rows are followed by middle in Group 4 and aisle passengers in Group 5 during the boarding process."Multiple customers in a same economy reservation will receive the same and highest applicable boarding group excluding Basic Economy customers in boarding Group 6," the memo stated.According to United, this change comes at a time when there's a need for more efficiency, with the airline stating that "boarding times have increased by up to two minutes since 2019."The change also comes ahead of the busy holiday travel season that has previously been fraught with delays, in which a speedy boarding process can be extremely helpful in ensuring on-time departures.。从报名情况来看，各路高手将云集赛场。本届赛事吸引了来自六大洲、16 个国家的 666 支队伍，共有 2056 台机器人同台竞技，队伍数量较首届增长 138%，
机器人数量翻了两番。国际方面，美国、德国、日本等机器人传统强国赛队积极参与，巴西还集结了五支机器人足球世界杯队伍，组建起一支国家联队参赛。国内方面，157 家企业、200 所院校和科研机构的 641 支队伍、1975 台机器人齐聚赛场。
B | 国内第一梯队企业悉数到场，27 所 985 高校踊跃参赛，产学研用各方力量汇聚一堂。
IT之家从官方介绍获悉，今年赛项从首届的 26 项增加至 51 项，其中竞技赛 30 项、场景赛 21 项；比赛场次从 487 场增至 1301 场。
C | 在竞技赛中，今年新增的跳远、举重、拔河、乒乓球等高强度对抗项目，都是对机器人大脑、小脑、本体结构以及核心零部件的极限考验。赛场上每多跳远 1 厘米、每多举起 1 公斤，都是工程师们对关节电机、减速器不断优化设计、精密加工、测试验证的结果。此外，田径场比拼将更加激烈，机器人足球比赛将实现带球跑动、大力抽射等技能提升，更有百支队伍上演“舞林争霸”。
D | 本届场景赛则将赛项延伸到真实环境，覆盖工业、酒店、家庭、物流等领域，并专门设置了灵巧手赛项。其中，灵巧手设有夹豆子、拧螺丝等 8 个“微操”赛项，上演指尖对决。相比去年场景赛机器人仅“一个人战斗”，本届升级为机器人两两同台比拼，进一步增加赛事的精彩程度和观赏性。
