《變形金剛》系列卡通形象問世30多年來，大概有很多粉絲都希望有一天身邊真的能出現可以變形的汽車人。如今，這個夢想真的變成了現實。

Thirty-some years after making their debut as cartoon characters, vehicle-morphing Transformers have finally become a reality, thanks to the efforts of a Turkish company out of Ankara.
《變形金剛》卡通形象問世30多年之后，能變形的汽車終于成為現實，這一切要歸功于土耳其安卡拉城外的一家公司。

The R&D-focused company, called Letvision, recently wowed the internet with a presentation video for their prototype car-transforming robot, ANTIMON. The recently-released footage shows a red BMW M3 being unveiled and remotely driven toward the camera, where it proceeds to transform into a mighty Autobot-like robot. The whole process takes a bit longer than in Michael Bay’s CGI movies, but it’s still mesmerizing to watch.
專注研發的公司Letvision（樂視野）最近在網上發布了他們的汽車變形機器人ANTIMON的雛形展示視頻，驚呆了一眾網友。在最近發布的這段視頻里，一輛紅色寶馬M3從遠處朝著攝像機駛來，與此同時，紅色寶馬開始變身為一個強大的汽車機器人。整個變形的過程比導演邁克爾?貝影片（《變形金剛》）里過程耗時要久一些，但看起來依舊讓人著迷。

For fear of copyright infringement issues, Letvision chose to call its creations Letrons, but they’re as close to real-life Transformers as they can currently get. The first video of ANTIMON shows that it can move its arm and head on command and while walking functionality has not been developed yet, the company claims it’s doable if they can secure reasonable funding for a new research and development project.
為了避免侵犯知識產權，Letvision公司給這個系列的變形機器人取名為Letrons（樂創），不過，這個機器人的外形是目前最接近現實版變形金剛的。ANTIMON的第一段視頻中，汽車機器人可以根據口令移動手臂和腦袋，但目前尚未研發行走功能。該公司表示，如果能夠為新的研發項目落實資金，行走功能是可以實現的。

On its official website, Letvision claims that ANTIMON was developed using an actual BMW M3, but it can only be control remotely, as the seating part of the car is currently taken up by the hydraulics system required for the awesome transformation into a Letron. However, they plan on making the vehicles drivable, which probably means integrating the passenger seat into the Letron as well.
Letvision公司在官網上表示，ANTIMON是用一輛寶馬M3研發出來的，但是，目前只能遙控，因為車里的座位被變形所需的液壓懸掛裝置占用了。不過，他們計劃在未來讓變形汽車可以正常駕駛，這可能意味著要在樂創系列汽車機器人上安裝座椅。

Letvision claims they came up with the idea for Letrons during a brainstorming session on a unique and futuristic project. ANTIMON reportedly took a team of 12 engineers and 4 technicians eight months to complete. They have created four other Letron models and are currently working on creating them using various car models.
該公司表示，制作樂創系列汽車機器人的想法來源于一次頭腦風暴，當時是為了討論一個獨創且有前瞻性的項目。12名工程師和4名技術人員總共花了8個月的時間才完成ANTIMON機器人。他們已經研制出了另外四款樂創機器人模型，目前正忙于用各種車型完成機器人的制作。

Now for the question that has probably been on your mind since you came on this page – Can you buy your very own real-life car-morphing robot? The answer is ‘YES’. Levision says that their letrons can be for sale, provided that “the buyers project and their reasons for use, meets the criteria of the Letrons team.”
現在來回答一直盤旋在大家腦中的那個問題：我們能為自己買一個現實版的汽車變形機器人嗎？答案是：能。Levision公司表示，他們的樂創系列機器人會對外出售，只要“買家的項目和購買用途符合樂創團隊的標準。”
