How Moxibustion Robots Master Classic Techniques

Digital rebirth of millennium techniques: When AI holds moxa sticks

In traditional Chinese medicine moxibustion, spiral moxibustion is as warm and burning as clouds rolling and spreading, and pecking moxibustion is as flexible as birds pecking at food - these exquisite techniques that rely on the wrist strength and rhythm of technicians are now being accurately reproduced by intelligent moxibustion robots. Through the integration of high-precision motion algorithms and bionic robotic arms, traditional techniques have broken through human limitations for the first time and achieved millimeter-level motion restoration.

Three core technologies revealed

1. Dynamic trajectory modeling

● Reproduction of spiral moxibustion: The robotic arm is equipped with a gyroscope sensor, which simulates the uniform rotation of moxa sticks with a 3D spiral trajectory, and the diameter is intelligently adjusted to adapt to different acupuncture points

● Restoration of sparrow pecking moxibustion: The air pressure drive device achieves high-frequency micro-lifting per second, and cooperates with infrared ranging emergency stop technology to accurately control the depth and frequency of "pecking"

2. Technique-temperature coupling system

In traditional techniques, changes in the distance of moxa fire will cause temperature fluctuations. The device uses:

● Real-time thermal imaging to track the skin temperature field

● Dynamically adjust the suspension height of the moxibustion head

3. Automatic compensation for heat changes caused by manipulation movements

Ensure that the "light pecking" of sparrow pecking moxibustion and the "warm ironing" of spiral moxibustion produce differentiated heat penetration

Intelligent feedback adjustment

The built-in bioelectric sensor captures the user's electromyographic signal. When muscle tension is detected:

● Spiral moxibustion automatically expands the rotation radius to reduce stimulation

● Sparrow pecking moxibustion switches to slow-down mode to avoid startle reaction

● Realize the intelligent advancement of "manipulations adapt to physical conditions"

Why are traditional techniques difficult to replace?

● The continuous warm penetration of spiral moxibustion is suitable for chronic conditioning

● The intermittent strong stimulation of sparrow pecking moxibustion is good at dredging meridians and activating collaterals

Smart devices make the selection of techniques logical through the TCM knowledge base:

The application of techniques is upgraded from empirical judgment to data decision-making

Future evolution: Manipulation library expansion plan

Currently, the intelligent moxibustion robot has mastered 5 basic techniques and is developing:

● AI path planning for reciprocating moxibustion along the meridians

● Coordinated control of the temperature of the needles of warm acupuncture

Through continuous learning of video data of old TCM operations, the robot arm gradually has a "humanistic feel"
