Brief Presentation about Robotics and Robots
- 3. A re-programmable, multifunctional, automatic industrial machine designed to replace human in hazardous work. It can be used as :- • An automatic machine sweeper • An automatic car for a child to play with • A machine removing mines in a war field • In space • In military , and many more..
- 4. Robotics is science of designing or building an application of robots. Simply ,Robotics may be defines as “The Study of Robots”.The aim of robotics is to design an efficient robot. • Speed • Can work in hazardous/dangerous temperature • Can do repetitive tasks • Can do work with accuracy
- 5. The history of robots has its origins in the ancient world. The modern concept began to be developed with the onset of the Industrial Revolution which allowed for the use of complex mechanics and the subsequent introduction of electricity. This made it possible to power machines with small compact motors. In the early 20th century, the modern formulation of a humanoid machine was developed. Today, it is now possible to envisage human sized robots with the capacity for near human thoughts and movement.
- 6. Most industrial robots have at least the following five parts: • Sensors • Effectors • Actuators • Controllers • & common effectors known as Arms Many other robots also have Artificial Intelligence and effectors that help it achieve Mobility.
- 7. • Mobile robots • Rolling robots • Stationary Robots • Autonomous Robots • Remote-control Robots • Virtual Robots
- 8. Mobile Robots Rolling robots have wheels to move around.They can quickly and easily search. However they are only useful in flat areas. Robots on legs are usually brought in when the terrain is rocky. Most robots have at least 4 legs; usually they have 6 or more.
- 9. Stationary Robots Robots are not only used to explore areas or imitate a human being. Most robots perform repeating tasks without ever moving an inch. Most robots are ‘working’ in industry settings and are stationary . Autonomous robots are self supporting or in other words self contained. In a way they rely on their own ‘brains’. Autonomous Robots
- 10. Remote-Control Robots A person can guide a robot by remote control. A person can perform difficult and usually dangerous tasks without being at the spot where the tasks are performed. Virtual robots don’t exits In real life.Virtual robots are just programs, building blocks of software inside a computer. Virtual Robots
- 11. Advantages : • Used to do repetitive (boring) actions or jobs • Perform a variety of tasks • Improve in quality • Increase in production • Perform dangerous tasks that humans can’t do • Robots do not get sick, they can work 24/7 without complaining Disadvantages : • People can lose jobs in factories • It needs a supply of power • It needs maintenance to keep it running . • It costs money to make or buy a robot
- 12. Today we find most robots working for people in industries, factories, warehouses, and laboratories. Robots are useful in many ways. For instance, it boosts economy because businesses need to be efficient to keep up with the industry competition. Therefore, having robots helps business owners to be competitive, because robots can do jobs better and faster than humans can, e.g. robot can built, assemble a car.Yet robots cannot perform every job; today robots roles include assisting research and industry. Finally, as the technology improves, there will be new ways to use robots which will bring new hopes and new potentials.
