Robot & robotics

A robot can be defined as a
programmable, self-controlled
device consisting of electronic,
electrical, or mechanical units.


HISTORY OF ROBOT :
The

first uses of modern robots were in
factories as industrial robots which
allowed production without the need for
human assistance.
Digitally

controlled industrial
robots have been built since the 1960s.
In

Renaissance Italy, Leonardo da
Vinci (1452–1519) sketched plans for a
humanoid robot around 1495.

Human-robot interaction:
Robots

will eventually be
capable of communicating
with humans
through speech, gestures,
and facial expressions.

TOPIO ("TOSY Ping Pong Playing Robot"):
TOPIO

("TOSY Ping Pong Playing
Robot") is a bipedal humanoid
robot designed to play table tennis against
a human being.
It has been developed since 2005
by TOSY, a robotics firm in Vietnam.


It was publicly demonstrated at the
Tokyo International Robot
Exhibition (IREX) on November 28,
2007.

ADVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGE OF ROBOT:

ADVANTAGE:
Spying

on people.

Giving

us information that humans can't get.

Working

at places 24/7.

They

can perform tasks faster than humans and
more consistently and accurately.
They

tasks.

can entertain us and help us in certain

DISADVANTAGE OF
ROBOT:
1) People can lose jobs in factories

2) It needs a supply of power
3) It needs maintenance to keep it
running
4) It costs money to make or buy a
robot.

Design,

construction, and use
of machines (robots) to perform
tasks done traditionally by
human beings.
Robots

are widely used in
such industries as automobile
manufacture to perform simple
repetitive tasks.

Artificial intelligence (AI):
Artificial

intelligence (AI) is the
intelligence exhibited by machines
or software, and the branch
of computer science that develops
machines and software with
intelligence.
AI

research is highly technical and
specialised, and is deeply divided
into subfields that often fail to
communicate with each other.

DEVELOPMENT OF
ROBOTICS IN INDIA:
The Indian Space Research
Organisation (ISRO) is examining the
possibility of establishing a robotic set-up or
unmanned mission on the moon.


Chandrayaan I and II, the basic objective
of the project is to examine whether a
robotic set-up can find the existence of
water, from which we can get hydrogen and
oxygen to use as propellants.


TYPES OF USES IN
ROBOTICS:
Flying:
Two

robot snakes. Left one has 64 motors
(with 2 degrees of freedom per segment), the
right one 10.
A modern passenger airliner is essentially
a flying robot, with two humans to manage it.

Tracked robots:
Tank

tracks provide even more traction than
a six-wheeled robot.
Tracked wheels behave as if they were made
of hundreds of wheels, therefore are very
common for outdoor and military robots.

Summer robotics camp:
Several national summer camp
programs include robotics as part of
their core curriculum, including Digital
Media Academy, RoboTech, and
Cybercamps.

Employment:
Robotics is an essential component in
many modern manufacturing
environments.

Sailing:
Sailboat robots have also been developed in
order to make measurements at the surface of
the ocean.
 The two main competitions of sailboat robots
are WRSC and Sailbot.


Career training:
Universities offer bachelors, masters,
and doctoral degrees in the field of
robotics.

ROBONAUT 2 AN
INDIAN ROBOT :
The space agency is
building Robonaut 2, a robot
designed to eventually help
astronauts by taking over
some of their duties on the
International Space Station.
