Introduction Of Robotics
Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, structural disposition, manufacture and application of robots.
Roboics is the sciences of electronics, engineering, mechanics, and software.
Robot and Robotics technologies represented a practical applications of physics, computer science, engineering and mathematics.
Robotics in Movies
MATRIX
I-ROBOT
TERMINATOR
Robot
All these movies are based on the fact that rules of robotics are violated.
Robots turn against their very own creators humans.
So we should build robots keeping the rules of robotics in mind.
What is a Robot ?
In practice it is usually an electro-mechanical machine which is guided by computer and electronic programming.
We can not exactly define that what robot is, but we can say that-
A robot can be electrical, mechanical or elctro-mechnical setup.
It can be programmable or non- programmable.
It can be Manual or automated controlled.
It can be use to move parts and help human beings.
A robot must have the following essential characteristics
Mobility: It possesses some form of mobility.
Programmability: It can be programmed to accomplish a large variety of tasks. After being programmed, it operates automatically.
Sensors: On or around the device that are able to sense the environment and give useful feedback to the device.
Mechanical capability: Enabling it to act on its environment rather than merely function as a data processing or computational device (a robot is a machine); and
Flexibility: It can operate using a range of programs and manipulates in a variety of ways.
Asimo
ASIMO is a humanoid robot created by Honda in 2000. ASIMO was created at Honda’s Research & Development Wako Fundamental Technical Research Center in Japan.
The name ASIMO is an acronym for “Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility”.
The main concept behind Honda's robot was to create a more viable mobility that allow robots to help and live in harmony with people.
ASIMO has the unique ability to walk forward, backward, side step and even climb stairs with human-like agility. With the capability to navigate and operate in our world, ASIMO will be able to perform tasks to assist .
ASIMO has two Degrees of Freedom on its neck, six on each arm and six on each leg.
ASIMO may also someday be helpful in dangerous work environments such as moving harmful chemicals or fighting fires.
Kismet (robot)
Kismet is a robot made in the late 1990s at Massachusetts Institute of Technology with auditory, visual and expressive systems intended to participate in human social interaction and to demonstrate simulated human emotion and appearance. The name Kismet comes from the Arabic , Turkish , Urdu Hindi and Punjabi word meaning "fate" or sometimes "luck".
Kismet simulates emotion through various facial expressions, vocalizations, and movement. Facial expressions are created through movements of the ears, eyebrows, eyelids, lips, jaw, and head.
Four color CCD cameras mounted on a stereo active vision head and two wide field of view cameras allow Kismet to decide what to pay attention to and to estimate distances.
Maxon DC servo motors with high resolution optical encoders are positioned to give Kismet three degrees of eye movement, which allow it to control gaze direction and gives Kismet the ability to move and orient its eyes like a human. This allows Kismet to simulate human visual behaviors.
Conclusion
Although most robots in use today are designed for specific tasks, the goal is to make universal robots, robots flexible enough to do just about anything a human can do.
