8 Robot Defined The word robot was coined by a Czech Novelist Karel Capek in 1920, it is the Czech word for worker or servant, 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)

9 Laws of Robotics, Isaac Asimov 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 the 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 Laws.

10 Early History of Robotics I Ancient Greek poet Homer described maidens of gold, mechanical helpers built by Hephaistos, the Greek god of metalsmiths. The golems of mid-evil Jewish legend were robot- like servants made of clay, brought to life by a spoken charm. In 1495, Leonardo Da Vinci drew plans for a mechanical man. Real robots of today were only possible in the 1950s and 1960s with the introduction of transistors and integrated circuits.

11 First Commercial Robots After the 1950s the first commercial robot nicknamed "Unimate" was created and installed at a General Motors Plant. This is a simple pick and place robot.

14 Robby the Robot Forbidden Planet Lost in Space Star Wars Terminator Let us also not forget

15 Hardware - Robots Robots are programmable computers. Non Adaptive robots cannot sense environment. Adaptive robots get feedback from sensors. They can be stationary, mobile or both.

16 The Robot Computer Programs and Algorithms Locomotion: Forward and pivot Arms: Raise, lower, pivot and move right or left These are the degrees of freedom for a robot This is a classic X,Y and Z axis plus Rotation

22 Robot Bases: Fixed or Mobile Robotic manipulators used in manufacturing are examples of fixed robots. They can not move their base away from the work being done Mobile bases are typically platforms with wheels or tracks attached. Instead of wheels or tracks, some robots employ legs in order to move about

23 Boston Dynamics Mule Robot A legged Robot

24 Origami using the DaVinci Robotic System

25 Mechanical Elements A very broad topic which includes an infinite variety of parts both commercially available and made to very specific specifications. These include sensors, motors, cables, computers, gears, stepper motors etc. Radio controllers are now in wide use (Drones).
