2. What is Robotics & Robot
History of Robotics
Types of Robots
Key Component
Applications
Advantages/Disadvantages.
3. the branch of technology that deals with the
design, construction, operation, and
application of Robots.
4. Word robot was coined by a Czech novelist
Karel Capek in a 1920 play titled Rassum’s
Universal Robots (RUR)
Definition
A robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional
manipulator designed to move material, parts,
tools or specialized devices through variable
programmed motions for the performance of a
variety of tasks: Robot Institute of America,
1979
5. 1954: The first
programmable robot is
designed by George Devol,
who coins the term
Universal Automation. He
later shortens this to
Unimation, which becomes
the name of the first robot
company (1962).
6. 1978: The Puma
(Programmable
Universal Machine for
Assembly) robot is
developed by
Unimation with a
General Motors design
support
7. 2003: NASA’s Mars
Exploration Rovers will
launch toward Mars in
search of answers
about the history of
water on Mars
8. There are many type of robots present now
some are,
Mobile Robots
Walking Robots
Autonomous Robots, etc.
9. Mobile robots are
able to move,
usually they perform
task such as search
areas. A prime
example is the Mars
Explorer, specifically
designed to roam
the mars surface.
10. Robots on legs are usually
brought in when the terrain is
rocky and difficult to enter
with wheels. Robots have a
hard time shifting balance
and keep them from
tumbling. That’s why most
robots with have at least 4 of
them, usually they have 6
legs or more. Even when
they lift one or more legs
they still keep their
balance. Development of
legged robots is often
modeled after insects or
crawfish..
11. Autonomous robots are
self supporting or in
other words self
contained. In a way they
rely on their own ‘brains’.
12.
13. Device to sense particular things.
Human senses:sight, sound, touch, taste, and
smell provide us vital information to function
and survive
Robot sensors : measure robot
configuration/condition
14. Common robotic actuators utilize
combinations of different electro-mechanical
devices
– Synchronous motor
– Stepper motor
– AC servo motor
– Brushless DC servo motor
– Brushed DC servo motor
15. Provide necessary intelligence to control the
manipulator/mobile robot
Process the sensory information and
compute the control commands for the
actuators to carry out specified tasks
16. Agriculture
Automobile
Construction
Entertainment
Health care: hospitals, patient-care, surgery ,
research, etc.
Laboratories: science, engineering , etc.
Law enforcement: surveillance, patrol, etc.
Manufacturing
Military: demining, surveillance, attack, etc.
Transportation: air, ground, rail, space, etc.
Utilities: gas, water, and electric
