WHAT ARE INDUSTRIAL ROBOTS?�
Industrial robots are robotic arms that can move in several directions and can be programmed to carry out many different types of tasks in different environments. These industrial robots can work:
In varying environments like high-pressure and vacuum chambers.
In clean workrooms and in terribly dirty areas.
In dangerous areas where threats of explosions, infections, radiation, or other extreme hazards are present and dangerous to humans.
ROBOT ETYMOLOGY�
The word robot is derived from the Czech word robota, which means “forced labor.” The word first appeared in the 1920 play R.U.R., in reference to the play’s characters who were mass-produced workers incapable of creative thinking.
TYPES OF ROBOTICS�
Mechanical bots come in all shapes and sizes to efficiently carry out the task for which they are designed. All robots vary in design, functionality and degree of autonomy. From the 0.2 millimeter-long “RoboBee” to the 200 meter-long robotic shipping vessel “Vind skip,” robots are emerging to carry out tasks that humans simply can’t.
PRE-PROGRAMMED ROBOTS�
Pre-programmed robots operate in a controlled environment where they do simple, monotonous tasks. An example of a pre-programmed robot would be a mechanical arm on an automotive assembly line. The arm serves one function — to weld a door on, to insert a certain part into the engine, etc. — and its job is to perform that task longer, faster and more efficiently than a human.
HUMANOID ROBOTS�
Humanoid robots are robots that look like or mimic human behavior. These robots usually perform human-like activities (like running, jumping and carrying objects), and are sometimes designed to look like us, even having human faces and expressions. Two of the most prominent examples of humanoid robots are Hanson Robotics’ Sophia and Boston Dynamics’ Atlas.
