This is the world's most realistic lightsaber.

轉承詞

And I'm holding it because today I got the chance to go behind the scenes with Walt Disney Imagineering.

我拿著它，是因為今天我有機會到華特迪士尼幻想工程公司的幕後工作。

The place where Disney brings their craziest ideas to life.

迪斯尼將最瘋狂的創意變為現實的地方。

From stunt robots, to a real-life version of The Force, to these adorable little droids.

從特技機器人到現實版 "原力"，再到這些可愛的小機器人。

On this show, we explore how technology can improve people's lives by living longer, going farther.

在本節目中，我們將探討技術如何改善人們的生活，讓他們活得更長、走得更遠。

But the reason that I've loved Disney since I was a kid is that they use tech to improve lives a different way.

但我從小就喜歡迪士尼的原因是，他們用科技以不同的方式改善生活。

And that means that they're pushing forward what tech can do in some really crazy, unexpected ways.

這意味著，他們正在以一些非常瘋狂、意想不到的方式推動科技的發展。

So let me take you inside the magic to show you the cutting-edge tech that Disney is building, how it really works, and what happens when we put it to the test.

是以，讓我帶您走進迪斯尼的神奇世界，向您展示迪斯尼正在建造的尖端技術、它的真正工作原理以及我們對它進行測試時會發生什麼。

This is what we call our Imagineering department, where we dream up our new projects.

這就是我們所說的 "想象工程部"，我們在這裡構思新項目。

When Walt Disney started building Disneyland, he needed people to help him build rides and robots and castles, every aspect of this new kind of park.

當沃爾特-迪斯尼開始建造迪斯尼樂園時，他需要有人幫他建造遊樂設施、機器人和城堡，以及這個新型樂園的方方面面。

He needed people who would think outside the box.

他需要跳出框框思考問題的人。

Their job was to imagine ways to bring the magic of Disney to life.

他們的工作就是想方設法把迪斯尼的魔力變為現實。

是以，沃爾特稱他們為 "想象家"。

Today, the Imagineers have built these legendary parks all around the world, and they constantly come up with new ideas for them, here, in their research and development lab.

如今，想象家們已經在世界各地建造了這些傳奇公園，他們還在這裡的研發實驗室裡不斷為這些公園提出新的創意。

We have some friends we want you to meet.

These are the latest and greatest BDX units.

這些是最新、最先進的 BDX 設備。

For this show, I've gotten to meet some very cool robots that can walk over uneven ground, or get pushed, or even open doors.

在這次節目中，我見到了一些非常酷的機器人，它們可以在不平的地面上行走，也可以被推著走，甚至可以開門。

But what makes these droids different is their personality.

但這些機器人的與眾不同之處在於它們的個性。

And that cuteness comes down to a bunch of very specific design and engineering decisions, from how this robot walks to how it does this little shimmy.

這種可愛歸結於一系列非常具體的設計和工程決策，從機器人如何行走到它如何做這個小晃動。

They're told exactly where to go by a person holding this console.

拿著這個控制檯的人會告訴他們該去哪裡。

Tap and then move the stick forward or any direction.

輕點，然後向前或向任意方向移動搖桿。

It's important to understand that I'm telling the droid what to do.

重要的是要明白，我是在告訴機器人該做什麼。

The actual way that it responds to me comes down to its training.

它對我的實際反應取決於它的訓練。

Using ducklings as inspiration, Disney Imagineers created a series of animations, like in a Disney movie, for how the robot should walk, or jump, or shimmy.

迪斯尼的幻想家們以小鴨子為靈感，製作了一系列動畫，就像迪斯尼電影一樣，讓機器人如何行走、跳躍或搖擺。

Then they put a digital version of the robot into a simulation.

然後，他們將數字版機器人放入模擬器中。

Most of the time when robots are trained this way, they're given a goal, and then they're rewarded based on how well they meet that goal under different circumstances.

大多數情況下，機器人在接受這種訓練時，都會被賦予一個目標，然後根據它們在不同情況下達到目標的情況給予獎勵。

So, for example, walk from A to B over different terrain.

是以，舉例來說，從 A 處步行到 B 處，要經過不同的地形。

So we actually have some live training going on on our computers right now.

是以，我們現在正在電腦上進行實時培訓。

So that's what you're seeing here is the thousands and thousands of robots trying different things, stumbling a little bit, and trying something different.

所以，你在這裡看到的是成千上萬的機器人在嘗試不同的東西，跌跌撞撞，嘗試不同的東西。

In this case, though, the droids are rewarded not just for walking from A to B, but also for how closely they follow the animations while they do that.

不過，在這種情況下，機器人獲得的獎勵不僅僅是從 A 地走到 B 地，還包括它們在走的過程中如何緊跟動畫。

In these digital worlds, they can get way more reps than they would in the physical world, and they don't get damaged.

在這些數字世界中，它們可以得到比在物理世界中更多的支持，而且不會受損。

Then the Imagineers upload that training to the physical robots, and they test them with these cute little harnesses, until eventually the droids are ready to go out into the world all on their own.

然後，想象師們將這些訓練上傳到實體機器人上，並用這些可愛的小揹帶對它們進行測試，直到機器人最終可以獨立走向世界。

These are not the robots that are most likely to be doing your laundry or working in a factory in the future.

這些機器人並不是未來最有可能為你洗衣服或在工廠工作的機器人。

But their design means that they're on the cutting edge of robotics in a different way.

但它們的設計意味著它們以另一種方式站在了機器人技術的最前沿。

In a world that uses more and more robotics, how we feel about something, whether or not we feel something is cute, whether we feel something is well-intentioned as opposed to scary, matters a lot for how much humans want to interact with robots.

在這個機器人應用越來越多的世界裡，我們對某件事情的感受，我們是否覺得某件事情可愛，我們是否覺得某件事情是善意的而不是可怕的，這對人類希望與機器人互動的程度有很大影響。

And that also must make the development, I mean, probably more fun, but also by definition more difficult, because the reinforcement learning has two objectives.

我是說，這也一定會讓開發工作變得更有趣，但顧名思義，也會變得更困難，因為強化學習有兩個目標。

It has don't fall, but it also has be cute about it.

它有 "別摔倒 "的意思，但也有 "可愛 "的意思。

That's what's really challenging about a lot of Imagineering projects, is we don't want our guests to see technologies, we want them to fall in love with a character and feel things.

這正是許多想象工程項目的真正挑戰所在，因為我們不想讓遊客看到技術，而是希望他們愛上一個角色，感受到一些東西。

It's hard not to love these little droids.

If you want to know more about how they're made to look so real, my friend Michelle Carre is making a video all about what it takes to become an Imagineer for her show Challenge Accepted.

如果你想更多地瞭解它們是如何製作得如此逼真的，我的朋友米歇爾-卡雷正在為她的節目《接受挑戰》製作一段視頻，講述成為一名想象師需要付出哪些努力。

And if you're really lucky, you might spot these droids walking around in a Disney park.

如果你真的很幸運，你可能會在迪士尼公園裡看到這些機器人走來走去。

Eventually, though, I had to leave my new friends.

但最終，我還是不得不離開我的新朋友。

We have made the most realistic, expandable, extendable lightsaber ever.

我們製作了有史以來最逼真、可擴展、可延伸的光劍。

He's one of the world's most famous Imagineers.

他是世界上最著名的想象師之一。

He holds over 100 patents, including for this lightsaber.

他擁有 100 多項專利，包括這把光劍。

I'm going to allow you to extend and retract it.

現在，這是一個非常昂貴的道具。

Now, this is a prop, so we're going to be very careful with it once it's extended.

現在，這是一個道具，所以一旦伸展開來，我們要非常小心。

And this is the button that you push to extend it.

按下這個按鈕，就能將其延長。

And it looked as real up close as it does on camera.

近距離觀看，就像在鏡頭前一樣真實。

In the Star Wars universe, of course, these Jedi weapons work by channeling energy through a crystal to create a blade that can cut through basically anything.

當然，在《星球大戰》宇宙中，這些絕地武器的工作原理是通過水晶輸送能量，製造出一把基本上可以切割任何東西的利刃。

In our universe, filming the Star Wars movies, actors used these fighting prop sticks, and then visual effects artists painstakingly added the glow in post-production.

在我們的宇宙中，拍攝《星球大戰》電影時，演員們使用這些戰鬥道具棒，然後由視覺特效師在後期製作中煞費苦心地添加發光效果。

But for Disney Parks, they somehow needed to make lightsabers real.

但對於迪士尼樂園來說，他們需要把光劍變成現實。

So the challenge when you're making a prop for a performer is that it has to look like what we see in the movies.

是以，當你為表演者製作道具時，面臨的挑戰是它必須看起來像我們在電影中看到的那樣。

And you remember in the movies, you know, slashing, the light extends, it can cut through all sorts of things.

你還記得電影裡的 "砍殺 "吧，光線可以延伸，可以切開各種東西。

Well, we don't cut through all sorts of things, but we did want smooth extension of the blade.

我們不會切割各種東西，但我們希望刀片能順利伸展。

It's that smooth extension that isn't possible with lightsaber toys that I've seen before.

這種平滑的延伸是我以前見過的光劍玩具無法做到的。

Our lightsaber unrolls from internal motors that are pushing it out.

我們的光劍是由內部馬達推動展開的。

And that was important for our performers to really look like Jedi knights.

這對我們的表演者來說非常重要，因為他們看起來真的像絕地武士。

The lightsaber has a clear cap with two long translucent tapes attached to it.

光劍有一個透明的蓋子，上面連接著兩條長長的半透明帶子。

That unroll from inside the lightsaber, allowing it to extend upward.

從光劍內部展開，使其向上延伸。

As they extend out of the hilt, the tapes bend into a concave shape to create a rigid blade.

當它們伸出刀柄時，膠帶會彎曲成凹形，從而形成一把堅硬的刀。

And on those tapes are a series of bright LEDs.

在這些錄音帶上有一系列明亮的 LED 燈。
