Industrial Robots
Cornell Notes
a robot size of a person can carry can carry over one
hundred pounds and can move repeatedly of +/-0.006
inches
24/7 workers and in some type of application it can just be
programmed once and no need to reprogram for another
year
robots tools and the cost of programming took up the
major percentage of the cost
industry usually buy a new robot if theres a needed
change in the programming
Entertainment Robots
Bugs Robots
Law Enforcement
Robots
Robots in Space
A surveillance robot
has a video camera and a light
small
the tracks let it to able to drive on all types of terrains
good for finding suspects hiding in vents or drainage pipes
controlled by a remote operator
Telerobotics
Motion control
Robot Vision
The robot has one link of length l and one joint with
angle . The position of the robot's hand is Xhand.
You may have to use your imagination a bit, but the
schematic above is the planar part of the SCARA robot
we discuss in the industrial robots section
Most inverse kinematics solutions at the position level
proceed in a similar fashion. You will use your
knowledge of trigonometry and geometry coupled with
your creativity to devise a solution.
Humans solve this problem all the time without even
thinking about it. When you are eating your cereal in
the morning you just reach out and grab your spoon.
You don't think, "my shoulder needs to do this, my
elbow needs to do that, etc."
What is servo control?" Imagine a simple motor. If you
connect it to a battery, it will start spinning. If you
connect two batteries, it will spin faster. Now imagine
you tell the motor to turn precisely 180 degrees (1/2
revolution) and stay there no matter how many
batteries there are. That's servo control
As you eat, you become less and less hungry until you
eventually stop eating. This is the idea of negative
feedback. Imagine if the opposite were true and eating
made you hungrier. You would eat until you exploded - out
of control!
Negative feedback in a servo control system proceeds in a
similar fashion. There is a desired position for the motor
and a feedback sensor that tells the motor it is not at the
correct position
Summary
Robots are a useful benefit for us and todays life. It can be launched into regions
of space without having human going on there. They can even help practice military
officers on their trainings, which requires shooting and good timely and appropriate
reactions. It can carry bombs and move tons of heavy loads of work without getting
tired.
Engineers has been trying to improve robots even more, like improving a robot to
help people in need or need special cares. Or on the contrary, robots can be used for
fun and entertainments, like making itself a part of an amusement park rides.
Though they might be useful, but there are some type of robots that produces
waste and that waste needed to be stored somewhere. The answer is still being
debated on, in the meanwhile, engineers are still working on for another complex
robots.
