- 3. What is aRobot? Generally, it is a machine that functions in place of a living agent "an automatic device that performs functions normally ascribed to humans or a machine in the form of a human."
- 4. Robotics?? Refers tostudy and use of robots. It’s a multi-disciplinary field. Best robotics researchers and engineers will touch upon all disciplines: Mechanical engineering Electrical engineering Computer Science Computer science is concerned primarily with: Robot Programming Perception Intelligent behavior
- 5. Behavior-based Robotics?? Behavioris what an external observer sees a robot doing. Robots are programmed to display desired behavior. Behavior is a result of a sequence of robot actions. Observing behavior may not tell us much about the internal control of a robot. Control can be a black box.
- 6. Behavior-based Robotics?? (cont.) Anintelligent robot is a machine able to extract information from its environment and use knowledge about its world to move safely in a meaningful and purposive manner.
- 7. Expressions of Behaviors Stimulus Behavior Stimulus-response (SR) diagrams Functional notation b(s) = r Finite state acceptor (FSA) diagrams Response
- 8. Types of State External state: state of the world Sensed using the robot’s sensors E.g.: night, day, at-home, sleeping, sunny Internal state: state of the robot Sensed using internal sensors Stored/remembered E.g.: velocity, mood The robot’s state is a combination of its external and internal state.
- 9. State and Intelligence State space: all possible states the system can be in A challenge: sensors do not provide state! How intelligent a robot appears is strongly dependent on how much it can sense about its environment and about itself.
- 10. Expressions of Behaviors (cont) A Navigational Example Consider a student going from one classroom to another. The following kinds of things are involved. • Getting to the destination from current location • Not bumping into anything along the way • Skillfully negotiating the way around other students • Observing cultural customs • Coping with change and doing whatever else is necessary
- 11. Behavior-Based Architectures Definition Robotarchitecture is the discipline devoted to the design of highly specific and individual robots from a collection of common software building blocks.
- 12. Behavior-Based Architectures (cont) EvaluationCriteria • Supporting for parallelism • Hardware targetability • Support for modularity • Robustness • Timeliness in development • Run time flexibility • Performance effectiveness
- 13. Behavior-Based Architectures (cont) Aforaging example The tasks consists of a robot’s moving away from a home base area looking for attractor objects. • Wander • Acquire • Retrieve
- 14. Behavior-Based Architectures (cont) Subsumptionarchitecture (Brooks) • AFSM model • It is a layered architecture that uses- arbitration strategies and AFSM as its basis. • Coordination: Inhibition and suppression • Pros Hardware retarget ability Support for parallelism • Cons Run time flexibility Support for modularity
- 15. Behavior-Based Architectures (cont) Motorschemas (Arkin) • A schema is the basic unit of behavior from which complex actions can be constructed; it consists of the knowledge of how to act or perceive as well as the computational process by which it is enacted. • Motor schemas are a software-oriented dynamic reactive architecture that is non-layered and cooperative.

- 17. Classic Purely mechanical machines.E.g. clock tower, AL jazari’s musical robot etc. Many machines that were capable of drawing, acting, flying, playing music etc. E.g. eating duck., mechanical calculators. Automation lead to programable machines. E.g. Radio controlled boat. Development of algorithms and mathematical calculations; computer science field arose.

Present Era 2010 toPresent 2001 to 2010 1991 to 2000 Honda revealed the most advanced humanoid robot ASIMO i.e. capable of running, walking, communication with humans, facial and environment recognition, voice and posture recognition and interact with environment. This era experienced highly advance robotics like iRobot humanoid which had more enhanced feature than ASIMO, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Global Hawk, etc. Robonaut 2, the latest generation robot called “The space walker”. Google’s robotic vehicles “The self driving car” is the latest development in History of Robotics.

- 35. The Robot DogAibo Artificial Intelligence roBOt intelligent life form. Good Boy! Aibo "Good Boy!" Sony’s AIBO could learn whatever name you give your AIBO. With built-in voice recognition, AIBO could learn up to fifty words (later Aibo models could do one thousand words) and talk back to you in a special AIBO tonal language. You command your pet to follow orders including "take a picture." AIBO has a built in camera. That is something your real life pet cannot do.
