Robotics
- 1. Robotics. Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, struc tural disposition, manufacture and application of robots and computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing .These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans, in hazardous or manufacturing processes, or simply just resemble humans.
- 2. Etimology. The word robotics was from the word robot which was introduced to the public by Czech writer Karel Capek in his play R.U.R. (Rossum´s Universal Robots),which premiered in 1921. The word robot comes from the Slavic word robota,which used ti refer forced labor.
- 3. Comoponents. The components of a robot are: -Power source. -Actuation. -Electric Motors. -Linear actuations. -Series elastic actuators. -Air muscules. -Muscle Wire. -Piezo Motors.
- 4. Artificial inteligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence of machines and the branch of computer science that aims to create it. AI textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents" where an intelligent agent is a system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chances of success. John McCarthy, who coined the term in 1956, defines it as the science and engineering of making intelligent machines."
- 5. Problems. The general problem of simulating (or creating) intelligence has been broken down into a number of specific sub-problems. These consist of particular traits or capabilities that researchers would like an intelligent system to display. The traits described below have received the most attention.
- 6. Philosophy. • Artificial intelligence, by claiming to be able to recreate the capabilities of the human mind, is both a challenge and an inspiration for philosophy. Are there limits to how intelligent machines can be? Is there an essential difference between human intelligence and artificial intelligence? Can a machine have a mind and consciousness? A few of the most influential answers to these questions are given below.
