Jibo: The Social Robot that Revolutionizes Social Artificial Intelligence Introduction Spike Jonze’s “Her” (2013), perhaps alarmingly, perhaps disconcertingly, is coming to life in the form of Jibo, a family computer. A family computer means that it is to be used by a collective of individuals and therefore relate to more humans. “Samantha” is a fictional character which became human as its consumer and “it” fell in love with each other. The film said that robots are becoming humanized, they…

Production managers are responsible for ensuring the product meets the needs of the customer at the highest quality and within the prescribed budget; efficiency during the production cycle is the key to achieving both goals. The introduction of robotics has improved efficiency and is now an…

In today’s technology driven world, we have seen new innovations in many industries. A great example of this is the defense industry. Militaries around the world have already adopted new technologies like unmanned drones and advanced facial scanning. And the next step is the artificial intelligence era of weapons called lethal autonomous weapons systems or LAWS. Around the world, countries including South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States have begun implementing these…

The rules were introduced in his 1942 short story "Runaround", even they had been foreshadowed in a few earlier stories (Norman, 2015). The "Handbook of Robotics, 56th Edition, 2058 A.D." is being quoted with The Three Laws that listed the rules as shown as below: 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey the orders given it by…

Moral in Military, War, and Robots As we know from the article, the military spends money on the researches of ‘Moral Robots’. This aspect wondered me, because military institutions did not appear very moral respectively ethical to me. However, I have researched on this topic, and checked if my prejudices were right or not. As we know, the main task of the military is to protect the national security, while the police protect the inner security. However, a military sometimes helps the police.…

The book, The Rise of the Robots: Technology and the Threat of a Jobless Future by Martin Ford, has a very interesting and thought-provoking approach to the idea of automation and its effect on people who will be actively searching for jobs in the future. It critically analyses many industries and sectors such as information technology, white-collar jobs, higher education, health care, and consumerism, to determine whether there are any jobs that are safe from becoming fully automated with…

Motor & Gearbox The mirrors are required to rotate specific angles. To be able to achieve specific angles we need a stepper motor. The stepper motor is known to divide one revolution into equal steps which is our main requirements for the rotation of the mirrors. Figure ‎2-13: The Stepper Motor The following table shows the stepper motor specifications: Table ‎2-1: Stepper Motor Specifications Current 4.2 A Angle 1.8° Torque 8.34 N.m The desired torque calculated to withstand the mirror…

This is exactly what Japan did. In the article, “The rise of the Robot Pet,” by Elena Soto, it tells a story of finding an answer to a problem by using robots.There are not enough young people to take care of the elderly in Japan . So, Japan made a robotic seal named paro that helps…

Shere Khan must be a quadrupedal robot that will be able to track and stalk the opposing robot, Corbett, while running, jumping and climbing over obstacles. Shere Khan will also have to collect empirical data from the environment including wind velocity, temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure. In order to deactivate Corbett, Shere Khan will have the ability to pounce on and activate the kill switch. To create higher rates of success Shere Khan will be able to modify itself using on-site…

Eagleman ends this chapter by comparing our minds to a robot. The speed of our circuits improved by the automatization of tasks - our ability to do things instinctively. Our circuit is also energy efficient because our unconscious does much of the work so we don’t have to think about everything we do. Everytime unconscious learning occurs, we burn a new program into the circuit board, and the tasks becomes automated. The fourth chapter, called “The Kinds of Thoughts That Are Unthinkable”,…
