3 generations of robots: Software. Hard-coded program (cyclogram). Adaptive. The ability to automatically reprogram (adapt) depending on the situation. Initially, only the basics of the program of action are set. Intelligent. The task is entered in general form, and the robot itself has the ability to make decisions or plan its actions in an uncertain or complex environment that it recognizes.
A robot is a machine with anthropomorphic (human-like) behavior, which partially or completely performs the functions of a person (sometimes an animal) when interacting with the outside world.

The adaptive control system, receiving bioelectric signals taken from the surface of the human body, calculates what kind of movement and with what power the person is going to make. Based on these data, the level of required additional power of movement is calculated, which will be generated by the servos of the exoskeleton. The speed and response of the system are such that human muscles and automated parts of the exoskeleton move in perfect unison.

- The word "robotics" was based on the word "robot", coined in 1920 by the Czech writer Karel Capek for his science fiction play "R. W.R. (“Rossum's Universal Robots”), first staged in 1921 in Prague and enjoyed success with the audience.
- In it, the owner of the plant arranges the production of many androids, which at first work without rest, but then rebel and destroy their creators.
- (Czech robot, from robota - forced labor or rob - slave) - an automatic device created on the principle of a living organism.
- Acting according to a predetermined program and receiving information about the outside world from sensors (analogues of the sense organs of living organisms), the robot independently performs production and other operations that are usually performed by humans (or animals).
- In this case, the robot can either have a connection with the operator (receive commands from him), or act autonomously.
- Android (from the Greek root ἀνδρ - the word ἀνήρ - “man, man” and the suffix -oid - from the Greek word εἶδος - “likeness”) - humanoid.
- AT modern meaning usually refers to a humanoid robot.
- Manipulative
- An automatic machine consisting of an actuating device in the form of a manipulator with several degrees of mobility, and a device program control, which is used to execute manufacturing process motor and control functions.
- Stationary
- mobile
- Such robots are produced in floor, suspended and portal versions. Received the greatest distribution in machine-building and instrument-making branches.
- A manipulator is a mechanism for controlling the spatial position of tools and objects of labor.
- Manipulation robots
- forward movement
- angular displacement
- Types of movement
- The combination and mutual arrangement of links determines the degree of mobility, as well as the scope of the robot's manipulation system.
- To ensure movement in the links, electric, hydraulic or pneumatic drives can be used.
- Manipulation robots
- Part of the manipulators (although optional) are grippers. The most versatile gripping devices are similar to the human hand - gripping is done using mechanical "fingers".
- Pneumatic suction cup grippers are used to grip flat objects.
- To capture many parts of the same type (which usually happens when robots are used in industry), specialized designs are used.
- Instead of grippers, the manipulator can be equipped with a working tool. It can be a spray gun, a welding head, a screwdriver, etc.
- Mobile
- An automatic machine that has a moving chassis with automatically controlled drives.

- Actuators are the "muscles" of robots. Electric motors are currently the most popular motors in drives, but others using chemicals or compressed air are also in use.
- A robot cannot harm a person or by its inaction allow a person to be harmed.
- A robot must obey all orders given by a human, unless those orders are contrary to the First Law.
- The robot must take care of its safety to the extent that this does not contradict the First and Second Laws.
- Isaac Asimov, 1965
- In 1986, in Robots and Empire, Asimov proposed the Zeroth Law:
- 0. A robot cannot cause harm to humanity or, by its inaction, allow harm to be done to humanity.
- 0. A robot cannot harm a person unless it can prove that it will ultimately benefit all of humanity.
- The material is taken from the textbook - E.I. Yurevich, Fundamentals of robotics.

slide 3
Main components of robots
Motors: At the moment, most robots use electric motors, which come in several forms. DC motors, familiar to many people, spin quickly when an electric current is passed through them. If the current is run in the other direction, the motors will rotate in the opposite direction. Stepper motors: As the name suggests, stepper motors do not spin freely like DC motors. They turn step by step by a certain degree under the control of the controller. This makes it easier to control them, since the controller knows exactly how far the turn was made, without the use of sensors. For this reason, they are used on many robots and CNC machines. Piezo motors: A modern alternative to DC motors are piezo motors, also known as ultrasonic motors. The principle of their operation is completely different: tiny piezoelectric legs, vibrating at a speed of more than 1000 times per second, make the motor move in a circle or a straight line. The advantages of such engines are high nanometer resolution, speed and power, incommensurable with their size. Piezo motors are already available commercially and are also used on some robots.
slide 4
Air muscles are a simple but powerful device for providing thrust. When pumped with compressed air, muscles can contract up to 40% of their length. The reason for this behavior is the weaving visible from the outside, which causes the muscles to be either long and thin, or short and thick. Since the way they work is similar to biological muscles, they can be used to produce robots with muscles and skeletons similar to animals. Electroactive polymers are a type of plastic that changes shape in response to electrical stimulation. They can be designed in such a way that they can bend, stretch or contract. However, there are currently no EAPs suitable for the production of commercial robots, as all are inefficient or fragile. Elastic nanotubes: This is a promising experimental technology at an early stage of development. The absence of defects in nanotubes allows this fiber to deform elastically by a few percent. The human bicep can be replaced with a wire of this material with a diameter of 8 mm. Such compact "muscles" can help robots in the future overtake and jump over a person.
slide 5
Robotics (from robot and technology; English robotics) is an applied science that develops automated technical systems (robots). The term was coined by science fiction writer Isaac Asimov in 1942. Robotics requires a large stock of knowledge in the field of electronics, mechanics, software and many other disciplines. Types of robotics construction industrial aviation military household
slide 6
Control methods
According to the type of control, robotic systems are divided into: 1. Biotechnical: - command (push-button and lever control of individual parts of the robot); - copying (repetition of human movement, implementation is possible feedback transmitting the applied force, exoskeletons); - semi-automatic (control of one command body, for example, the handle of the entire kinematic scheme of the robot); 2. Automatic: - software (they operate according to a predetermined program, mainly designed to solve monotonous tasks in unchanged environmental conditions); - adaptive (decide typical tasks, but adapt to the operating conditions); - intellectual (the most developed automatic systems); 3. Interactive: - automated (alternation of automatic and biotechnical modes is possible); - supervisory (automatic systems in which a person performs only target-designating functions); - interactive (the robot participates in a dialogue with a person to choose a behavior strategy, while, as a rule, the robot is equipped with an expert system capable of predicting the results of manipulations and giving advice on choosing a target). In the development of methods for controlling robots, the development of technical cybernetics and the theory of automatic control is of great importance.
Slide 7
3 laws of robotics
1) A robot cannot harm a person or, by its inaction, allow harm to be done to a person. 2) A robot must obey all orders given by a human, unless those orders are contrary to the First Law. 3) The robot must take care of its safety to the extent that this does not contradict the First and Second Laws. Works in the field of artificial intelligence see the Laws of Robotics as an ideal for the future: it takes a real genius to find a way to put them into practice. And in the field of artificial intelligence itself, serious research may be required in order for robots to understand the Laws. However, the more complex robots become, the more interest is expressed in developing guidelines and security measures for them.
Slide 8
Artificial intelligence
It is the science and development of intelligent machines and systems, especially intelligent computer programs, aimed at understanding human intelligence. However, the methods used do not have to be biologically plausible. But the problem is that we don't know what computational procedures we want to call intelligent. And since we understand only some of the mechanisms of intelligence, then by intelligence within this science we understand only the computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the world. In computer science, the problems of artificial intelligence are considered from the standpoint of designing expert systems and knowledge bases. Knowledge bases are understood as a set of data and inference rules that allow logical inference and meaningful information processing. In general, the study of the problems of artificial intelligence in informatics is aimed at the creation, development and operation of intellectual information systems, including issues of training users and developers of such systems
Slide 9
Approaches to the definition of artificial intelligence
logical agent-oriented intuitive (logical approach to (according to this approach, intelligence- (this approach to the pre-creation of AI systems is a computational part capable of believing that AI is aimed at creating the ability to achieve the goals set before it will be capable of expert systems with an intelligent machine goals. It to show human logical models focuses on those methods of behavior of knowledge bases with the use of algorithms that will help even in a normal predicate language) an intelligent machine to survive situations) in environment when performing a given task)
Slide 10
Modern artificial intelligence
At the moment, in the creation of artificial intelligence, there is an intensive grinding of all subject areas, having at least some relation to AI, in knowledge bases. Almost all approaches have been tried, but not a single research group has approached the emergence of artificial intelligence. AI research has joined the general flow of singularity technologies (species leap, exponential human development), such as computer science, expert systems, nanotechnology, molecular bioelectronics, theoretical biology, quantum theory. The results of developments in the field of AI have entered the higher and secondary education of Russia in the form of computer science textbooks, where the issues of working and creating knowledge bases, expert systems based on personal computers on the basis of domestic systems of logical programming, as well as the study of fundamental issues of mathematics and computer science on the examples of working with models of knowledge bases and expert systems in schools and universities.

Major interstate scientific projects and discoveries
1) The XFEL (X-Ray Free Electron Laser) project will be unique technological complex to conduct scientific research at a qualitatively new level in such priority areas of development of the domestic innovation economy as nanotechnology and will significantly exceed in its technical parameters similar lasers that are already being built in the USA and Japan. X-ray free electron laser XFEL with a length of 3.4 km will be built underground in Germany's largest synchrotron center DESY (Hamburg). Russia will become the second country after Germany in terms of investment in an international project that will allow reaching a new level in research in the fields of physics, chemistry, materials science, life sciences, and biomedicine.
slide 15
Research in fundamental physics led to the creation of supersensitive nanosensors British researchers, together with scientists from Belgium and the United States, have developed new sensitive sensor structures that can be used, for example, in transport security systems to detect poisonous and explosive substances. Another, no less important, application of such sensors can be medicine, in particular, to determine the protein in the blood of patients with high sensitivity and accuracy. The work, which is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, was led by physicists at Imperial College London.
slide 16
The further nanoelectronics develops, the more technological problems engineers face. One of them - efficient production three-dimensional computer chips. But it seems that nanotechnology has found a solution to this problem. Researchers at the Renssleer Polytechnic Institute have developed new method growing copper nanowires. As the scientists say, nanothread arrays can serve as the basis for chips with a three-dimensional arrangement of elements in the future.
Slide 17
British scientists from the University of Warwick have learned how to slow down the emission of a photon by influencing excitons, by-products that remain during the manufacture of quantum dots. According to a university press release, which is summary articles from the journal Physical Review Letters, in their work, the participants in the study slowed down light, prolonging the lifetime of an exciton, a quasiparticle that occurs when an electron is knocked out by a photon from its energy level to a higher one and the electron passes into an excited state. In this case, the electron and the “hole” formed in its place are connected with each other through charge interactions. When the electron returns to its previous energy level, it takes the place of the "hole", and the photon that knocked it out is emitted by the system. It is this state of particles that is called an exciton. The researchers believe that the technology they have developed has a great future. For example, delaying the emission of light could help build computers that use photons to transmit information.
Slide 18
American scientists have discovered a way to lift small objects into the air using the principles of quantum physics. They claimed to have identified and measured the force that occurs at the molecular level using a certain combination of molecules that repel each other. This process of mutual expulsion of molecules causes the effect of keeping them in the air, in other words, the effect of levitation. Part of the molecules raised into the air floats above the main layer of the object, while levitating objects can move relative to each other with the almost complete absence of friction. Scientists propose to use their discovery in the development of the latest objects of nanotechnology. Scientists are sure that with the help of the levitation effect it will be possible to design individual parts of nanorobots. Federico Capasso, a professor of applied physics at Harvard University's School of Engineering who led the study, suggested that his team's discovery could make it possible to develop a whole new class of technical devices and gadgets. The scientist noted that, despite the fact that scientists managed to lift only nano-objects into the air, only one step remained before the levitation of large objects, since they had already studied the basic mechanisms and principles of the levitation process.
Lego robot program for students elementary school“Already at school, children should have the opportunity to reveal their abilities, prepare for life in a high-tech competitive world” D. A. Medvedev Speech by Head. ODOD, additional education teacher Vagenik I.Yu. GBOU lyceum 144 of the Kalininsky district, St. Petersburg, 2013
Robot design - what is it? Another fashion trend or a requirement of the times? What do schoolchildren do in Lego circles - design: play or study? To study technology and computer science To increase motivation to study these subjects, as well as mechanics, physics, mathematics, as well as the development of cognitive, research activities students.
Lego allows students to: study together within the same group; distribute responsibilities in your group; show increased attention to the culture and ethics of communication; show a creative approach to solving the problem; create models of real objects and processes; see the real results of your work.
WHAT WE DID IN THE CLASSES One lesson is two lessons of 45 minutes each. Typically, a two-person team works with one design kit and one laptop. According to the instructions, we assemble the model, draw up a program for it, and conduct tests. The models are very original, you can’t come up with these yourself! With some models, you can experiment, and with some - games. For each model, you can write several versions of programs, add sound and graphic accompaniment.
WHAT MORE? It is easy to assemble the model according to the instructions. It is important to understand what mechanisms allow it to move. We have studied the principles of operation of a motor that rotates an axle, a lever, a cam. Get acquainted with gear and belt drives. We learned what a pulley and a worm wheel are. Now in new models we will be able to use these mechanisms.
