Fiction to reality
  • Now we can compare

Fiction to Reality RUR
35
  • "Gort" from the movie "The Day The Earth Stood
    Still."

36
Fiction to Reality
  • "Commander Data" from Star Trek, an android robot
    with a "positronic brain."

37
Intelligent Robot Definition
  • Knowledge Acquisition Capabilities
  • Sensors
  • Cameras
  • Radar
  • Tactile Sensors
  • Infrared etc.
  • Decision Making System
  • Artificial Intelligence

ENTERTAINMENT
  • Robots are seen on T.V. (Star Trek - The Next
    Generation) and in the movies (The Day the Earth
    Stood Still, Forbidden Planet, Lost in Space,
    Blade Runner, Star Wars).
  • These imaginary robots do a lot of things that
    the real ones can not do.
  • Some robots in movies, video and computer games
    are made to attack people.

TOYS
  • The new robot technology is making interesting
    types of toys that children will like to play
    with
  • "FURBY", which became available in stores for
    Christmas 1998 - and continues to be very
    popular.

56
TOYS
  • "LEGO MINDSTORMS" robot construction kit. These
    kits, which were developed by the LEGO company
    with M.I.T. scientists, let kids create and
    program their own robots.

57

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 to build any type of robot.

60
Possible Programming Projects
  • 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
