ROBOTICS

There isn’t any specific law to be a robot, but to be a robot, a machine have to do some of this things: move, have a robotic arm, feel,…

What is a Robot? A robot is a virtual or

mechanical artificial agent. It is usually an electro-

mechanical machine which is guided by computer or electronic programming, and is thus able to do tasks on its own.

Most important parts at basic

robots Five major

components of Basic Robots:

1. A body structure 2. A muscle system3. A sensory system4. A power source5. The brain system

The Three Laws of Robotic

I. A Robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

II. A Robot must obey any oders given to it by a human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

III. A Robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict whit the First or the Second Law

There are some different types of robots, and everybody now someone, but now we are going to explain some of them…

The beginning The term robot

comes from the Czech word robota, generally translated as "forced labor." This describes the majority of robots fairly well.

Types of Robots

Robotics Arms Mobile Robots

Robotics ArmsThese is the most common manufacturing robot, and they are joined by six joints. This types of robots resembles a human arm, and it can pivot in six different ways.

Forearm

ElbowShoulder

Base

End effectors

There are some types of end effectors, like a simplified version of the hand. But there are others:• Pressure sensors• Blowtorches• Drills• Spray painters

Where do they work?Most of this industrial robots work in auto assembly lines putting cars together

But, manufacturing robots are also very important in the computer industry

Mobile Robots

The first obstacle in robotic was to give the robot a working locomotion system with: -Wheels or tracks -Legs

How do they move?They usualy use hydraulic or pneumathic pistons. This make bipedal, or other type of locomotion possible

But to move, the robots requiered a balance system( or a colection of gyroscopes)

How do you control them?

Some mobile robots are controlled by remote, using radio or infrared signals. Or with a wire.

Types of Robots

Autonomous Robots Homebrew Robots

Autonomous Robots The basic idea is that they can act on their own. That’s because they are programmed to respond a certain way to outside stimuli.The bump-and-go robot is a good illustration of this sort of robots.

How do they work? These kinds of robots have a bump sensor which

detects the obstacles. If you turn the robot on it moves in a straight line, however when it hits an obstacle, the impact pushes in the bumper sensor.

Then the robot’s programming tells it to go back, turn right or left and go forward again.

Where do they work?

• Familiar environment: • Unfamiliar environment:

Lawn-mowing robots

Floor cleaning robot

Rover robot

How do they see the worldSimpler mobile

robots: They use infrared or ultrasound sensors to see obstacles.

More advanced robots: These robots use stereo vision to see the world around them.

Homebrew RobotsHomebrew robots are machines

which have been cobble together using commercial robot kits, toys

and even and VCRs by a passionate band of amateur robotics.

They tinker with elaborate walking machines.

Types of homebrew robots

Battle-Bots

Soccer Robots

The future

How are robots advancing?

Evolutionary robotics submitted to tests Methods: Developmental robotics tracks changes

New functions and abilitiesJapan hopes to have full-scale commercialization of service robots by 2025

We don’t know if robots are going to were ending for controlling ourselves, which we know is that nowadays nobody can’t live without them

Any question?
