This document summarizes different types of robots, including driving robots that use differential steering, omnidirectional robots that use Mecanum wheels, flying robots with sensors and structures, balancing robots that use inverted pendulums, and walking robots with 6 legs or that are bipedal. It also discusses mobile robot design, controllers, micro robots like ants, multi-purpose humanoids as long term goals, famous robots like Honda's robot, intelligent robots with sensors and decision making, entertainment robots, and toys like Furby and Lego Mindstorms kits. The document explores how robotics can be used to explain concepts in various fields like control systems, software, sensors, motors, image processing, and artificial intelligence.

What did we learn?What did we learn? • Many types of robots exist. • Progress of technology allows now to build an Intelligent Robot with Perception and Manipulation under $1000. • There are several kits for high school robotics. • Robotics allows to explain ideas of control, software, sensors, motors and other effectors, image processing, pattern recognition, machine learning and Artificial Intelligence • Small robot that you can build in a classroom can explain all important principles at a fraction of cost • You are no longer restricted to robotic arms, kits allow
- 60. Possible ProgrammingPossible Programming ProjectsProjects • Select your favourite robot: Space, military, medical, etc • Create a model of your robot: use your knowledge of trigonometry to describe kinematics of your robot • Find on WWW a graphics package, you can use AUTO-CAD with Lisp • Visualize the movements of your robot using the graphic package • Do the tele-remote interface to your robot. When you use the mouse or joystick or keyboard, the robot executes respective commands
