PREFACE
The word robot was first used by a Czechoslovakian dramatist, Karel Capek, in his
1921 play "Rossum's Universal Robots”. The Merriam - Webster Dictionary defines robot as
1. A machine that looks and acts like a human being.
2. An automatic apparatus.
3. 3. Something guided by automatic controls.
Our project is represented the most by the third definition. The robot that we have designed is guided by controls that take input from a human and perform certain actions based on these inputs.
Our project is a Robotics project. Robotics is not a pure Computer Engineering subject it is a combination of different engineering fields namely
•
Mechanical Engineering
•
Electrical Engineering
•
Electronics Engineering
•
Computer Engineering
These four fields combine to form the field of Mechatronics, of which Robotics is a part. The famous science fiction writer Isaac Asimov introduced the term Robotics.
He defined it as the science of robots. Robotics is not a very new field as generally thought of. Great research has been done in this field. The result can be seen in the form of “Asimo”. “Asimo” is a robot developed by Honda, Japan.
According to
scientists, the robots of today have the intelligence equal to that of a cockroach, which does not seem very bright. But it is being said that in the next twenty years, robots will have knowledge equal to that of a rat. This shows how much research is being done in this field.
