This is to be achieved by the identification of associated hazards with robotic applications and provide an understanding of how these hazards are overcome. Typical sources of hazards associated with robotic operations within the working environment include. · Crushing · Shearing · Striking · Entrapment / entanglement · Process

The da Vinci robotic system has proven to provide positive short term post surgery results. Asante Medical Center has recorded several first-hand accounts of patients who had undergone da Vinci robotic surgery. Martha Kelly‚ one of the patients who underwent the da Vinci‚ had severe endometriosis‚ a disorder that traps excess menstrual blood‚ causing it to excessively build up. This issue would leave Kelly paralyzed once a month‚ resorting her to take 40 ibuprofen tablets per day to mitigate her

questions of ethics arise. Robotics has slowly evolved into the battlefield with machines like drones and UAVs leading the way. While intimidating‚ the inclusion of robots in warfare seems to be a natural evolution. With human oversight‚ advancements in robotics serve to bring a new dimension of defense. In We Should Not Ban ‘Killer Robots‚’ and Here’s Why by Evan Ackerman and “War Machines: Recruiting Robots for Combat” by John Markoff‚ the authors discuss the evolution of robotics in warfare.

And as people go into space‚ machines will go along. Of all the machines we have used and imagined‚ none have captured our interest and feelings so strongly as the class of machines called robots. The International Space Station’s new Canadarm2 robotic arm grasps a Spacelab pallet while Canadian mission specialist Chris A. Hadfield helps maneuver it into loading position while on a space walk. But what exactly is meant by the term "robot"? Moreover‚ how is it decided that it is better to use
