WHAT IS A ROBOT?

Is a robot… – Man-made, reprogrammable brain in control of a body?

– Machine that mimics human and animal behaviors?

– Mechanical device that performs pre-programmed behaviors?

Definition actually varies from person to person in the industry.

WHAT IS A ROBOT?

A robot is defined as a machine with – Input – information that comes from sensors – Program – a set of instructions – Behavior – response to input or an environment – Output – result or product of input and program – Body – a physical object

WHAT IS A ROBOT?

Basic robot parts – Moveable body – Actuators • Electric motors, solenoids, hydraulic or pneumatic systems – Power source • Batteries, AC power, compressed air – Electrical circuits • Connect all actuators – Computer • Controls all electrical circuits – Sensory system (optional)

Working robots

– Designed to do repetitive or dangerous tasks – Used mainly in factories – Often carry supplies or messages – Allow humans to focus on solving problems – Examples • Medical robots that perform minor or difficult surgical procedures • • Bomb disposal robots that handle dangerous explosives Welding robots that help assemble automobiles

Exploring Robots

– Designed to explore places humans cannot go – Used by scientists and adventurers – Typically have sensors, actuators and mobile power sources – Examples • • Mars rovers Spirit and Opportunity Robots that explore shipwrecks like the Titanic • Scientific probes to harsh-climates like a volcano or glacier

Playing Robots

– Designed to entertain us – Used by robot hobbyists and kids – Typically have a gaming or competing behavior – Examples • Battlebots • RoboCup soccer • Toys
