Compvantages And Descriptions Of A Robot Operating System

Looking back in early 80’s, no one thought that world will reshape as it has reshaped. The significant pillar in reshaping the world has been introduction of technology in almost every sector starting from pharmaceuticals to retail stores. There is a reason to call this time as modern time and that reason is technology. Technology has advanced to this extent that robotics are now involved in almost every sector. A small and simple example of robotics can be taken of the electronic shutter installed in a store or shop. The industry of robotics has turned in to billion dollar industry. Industries such as automobile, telecommunication, power generation and steel manufacturing have extensive usage of robotics in production. Japan is among the pioneers

The remote-controlled, heavy-duty robot tEODor (telerob Explosive Ordnance Disposal and observation robot) is designed and manufactured by Telerob. Telerob is a business unit of Cobham Unmanned Systems. The robot is designed to provide enhanced bomb disposal capabilities to explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) teams. The robot offers high reliability and excellent manoeuvrability. It can be used to identify and disarm booby traps, fireworks, improvised explosive devices and other dangerous objects in closed areas, buildings and vehicles. It also performs reconnaissance, monitoring and investigation of objects in extra dangerous conditions.The tEODor bomb disposal robot system is in service with military and law enforcement units of more than 41 countries worldwide.

This investigative lab studies the development and movement of robotic devices. The objective of this lab experiment in particular was to create a simplistic version robotic beetle that can move and react in the same manner as the household autonomous robotic vacuum device; the Roomba. Using items one could find within one’s home, the investigator utilized simple materials to create a simplistic autonomous robotic device that would contain the basic features of a Roomba, primarily the feature that implements the ability to essentially avoid objects rather than run straight into them, allowing the robotic device to move about a room with little to no outside

Continuing with the development and improvement of the assembly line, in the 1960s, new machines were invented that allowed for five axes of motion. These devices were called the “Versatran”, and were installed a Ford factory in Ohio. But later in the decade, robots became even more complex adding another axis it can work

Because of the low-slung light-weight built body, this robot has the ability to step over sizeable obstacles. The gripper feet located at the bottom of the robot are another useful characteristic. These feet allow the robot to climb walls (smooth or rough) effortlessly. Each of the eight legs contains four joints which allow the robot to move over uneven surfaces with ease. The Robug III also has the ability to drag loads that weigh up to 221 pounds. Another useful qualification that this robot has is that it can work safely in radioactive enviroments.

Team 2470 may not be the most organized team: the robot’s main components may go on in the last hours, tape drawers hold everything from pliers to saws, and metric-sized bolts may cause everlasting annoyance in their perennial placement on the robot. Still, this team has the right combination of quirks and science to ignite the fire of inspiration in its students and mentors. Team 2470’s fight to create and keep robotics as a sport for everyone has lasted through the years. They have not weathered the years completely alone, as they have grown a large community of support. Traversing outside of their cozy robotics room, this team has gone out to the community to shine. While this team cannot boast an assembly-line process, they can boast their inspiring influence.

The history of military robotics dates back to World War II and the Cold War. During those times of spying, weaponry and strategic attacks, these robots were in the form of Germany’s type of robotics and Russian weaponry called “teletanks”.

Service robots - Robots that don’t fall into other types by usage. These could be different data gathering robots, robots made to show off technologies, robots used for research, etc.

I walked into the gym at Florissant Valley Community College eager with anticipation for our first Robotics tournament of the year. My hands shook as I held “Curtis the Robit ,” but it wasn’t because of the weight. To me, Curtis the Robit was more than just a fifteen-pound amalgamation of cables, steel, and aluminum; he was the culmination of months of systematic building and testing. In my hands was the physical representation of countless hours spent. As the leader of my team, I became engulfed by the furor of competition, desperate to prove what we were capable of.

Big companies like “Google” are signing a 60 year, $1.16 billion lease Moffett Naval Airfield in San Francisco the historic Hangar One as part of its expansion into robotics, aviation and space exploration. Kyrre Glette, Associate Professor at Oslo University’s Department of Informatics states “In the future, robots must be able to solve tasks in deep mines on distant planets, in radioactive disaster areas, in hazardous landslip areas and on the sea bed beneath the Antarctic. These environments are so extreme that no human being can cope. Everything needs to be automatically controlled. For an example a robot is entering the wreckage of a nuclear power plant. It finds a staircase that no-one has thought of. The robot takes a picture. The picture is analyzed. The arms of one of the robots is fitted with a printer. This produces a new robot, or a new part for the existing robot, which enables it to negotiate the stairs.” This is the primary example of what the future could hold with robotic technology.

After a thorough analysis of the presented options, our team has come to the conclusion that “Robots R Us” should be selected for our new manufacturing process. Although switching to fully autonomous manufacturing will be a major and somewhat controversial transition for our company, the economic benefits of this option lead to it being the most beneficial to our long term success. Not only does “Robots R Us” bring us to profitability faster than any other option, but also provides us with the highest profit margins of any manufacturing option presented.

The industrial robots are applied in all branches of the industry. The highest level of application is in the automobile industry, but the number of installed robots is increasing in other industries as well (Karabegovic, Dolecec, Husak, 2011).

Although the partnership was formed in 2013, there have been several accomplishments in these two years. Two main documents were produced. The Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) offers readers a strategic overview of the European robotics community and its objectives. As the companion to this document, Multi-Annual Roadmap (MAR) provides detail explanation of expected progress and an analysis of medium to long-term research and innovation goals. And many projects and research are in progress. Several forums and workshops are held for both member organizations and the public. Moving forward, based on the data collection and research, SPARC is very likely to have following 2 outcomes: economic growth and job opportunities.
