IntroductionWhat is a Robot?

A robot can be defined as a programmable, self-controlled ,automatic device consisting of electronic, electrical, or mechanical units. More generally, it is a machine that functions in place of a living agent. 

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..

What is Robotics?Why is Robotics needed?

Human vs Robots

Human• Humans are Organic.

• Human can think and have a soul.

• Humans can eat.• Humans cannot be

programed or re-programed and gets tired.

Robot• Robots are made of metal

or a type of element that is not organic

• Robots just do commands and obey to what Humans say.

• Robots just get oiled up, and charged like a battery. 

• Robots are programmed to obey orders and perform tasks repetitively without being tired.

History& EVOLUTION Of Robotics

• 1495: Leonardo da Vinci

1700 – 1900 Jacques de Vaucanson

• 1913: Henry Ford• 1920: Karel Capek• 1932: Japan.Lilliput

• 1941: Isaac Asimov’s 3 Laws:1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a

human being to come to harm.2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except

where such orders would conflict with the First Law.3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection

does not conflict with the First or Second Law.• 1954:George Devol and Joe Engleberger. General Motors.

• 1957: Sputnik , Soviet Union• 1969: NASA,Moon• 1986: Honda Humanoid Robot• 1999: Sony,AIBO• 2004:Epsom launch smallest robot• 2008:Robotic Vaccum Cleaner

Robotics Technology

Most industrial robots have at least the following five parts:

• Locomotive parts• Power Supply• Actuator• Sensors• Signal Processing Parts• Control Parts

ASIMO

CONTROLLER ACTUATORS

SENSORS

Types Of Robots

• Mobile Robots• Stationary Robots• Autonomous Robots• Self Controlled Robots• Virtual Robots

Mobile Robots:• Rolling Walking

Stationary Robots

Autonomous Robots

Remote Controlled Robots

Virtual Robots

Some Recent Advancements

Artificial legs

Neural network Self-Assembling Robot Furniture (Swiss BioRobotics Lab)

Vecna’s BEAR

iCub Robot

CHEETAH

Advantages:• Going far down into the unknown waters where humans

would be crushed.• Working at places 24/7 without any salary and food. Plus

they don't get bored.• They can perform tasks faster than humans and much more

consistently and accurately.• Industrial automated robots have the capacity to improve

product quality. • Robots increase workplace safety.

Limitations:•  People can lose jobs in factories.• The initial investment to integrated automated robotics is

high.• They have limited duties as they will only do what is

programmed and cannot think for themselves.• Lack of Emotions.
