Designing A Viable Platform For Humanoid Robotics

Rather success will go to those who innovate in the organization,optimization, and customization of the process of getting work done with bots and machines”(Kelly Page.310), therefore, big business will have to worl hard towards collaberating with robots in order to maintain a successful business and for those who are starting out will have to work as hard to become successful in the robot industry.

Unbeknownst to most people, technology has been around much longer than we expect and the rate of these innovations actually coming to grips with the community is a slow one. While many scientists and engineers may be in the lab as we speak creating a robot, we

The use of robots and technology in the modern world has exponentially increased, as we gain more and more technology. Throughout human history technology has changed how we work and how we survive, from early cave men developing tools to make a task easier to the modern airliner taking hundreds of people around the world in a matter of hours. History shows that we are always looking for a way to develop, and progress as a society. Technology has advanced with us and is used to help

He explains how automation has taken human jobs before and how it has created new jobs for us. And the same thing will happen in the future. The author also gives examples of how robots are becoming more and more available to the average human. He addresses people's concerns about robots by exploring the opportunities robots will bring and that their will still be jobs for humans that robots have not yet taken over. Kelly concludes his essay by reinforcing the idea that robots will have their place and that humans will “dream up new work that matters”(Kelly).

In the article “Better than Human: Why Robots Will — and Must — Take Our Jobs,” Kevin Kelly states his idea on the automation of the world. If more than half of the current workers were dismissed, what would happen to an economy? Actually, this large-scale dismissal did happen in the 19th century, when the industrial revolution occurred. At that time, 70 percent of American workers engaged in farming, but of that 70 percent, one percent of them were forced to resign because of the automation; however, a lot of jobs in completely new fields such as “appliance repairman, offset printer, food chemist, photographer or web designer,” were created thanks to the automation (300). Based on this historical fact, he is positive about the automation that will take place in the future.

In her article “Are Humans Necessary”, Margaret Atwood stated lots of facts and concerns about robots in future.

First of all, machines and humans can work together. An example is how at a pizza place robots are used to prep most of the meal. ‘"It's delicious. It's always hot and fresh when it comes," a customer said. "I can't tell the difference that it's made by a robot versus a human."’ (Chea). Robots will do the monotonous, repetitive jobs that humans don’t enjoy. In the example of the pizza place food quality will not suffer, and no one at

Compared to last century, workers in manufacturing jobs feel more threatened by automation than ever before. While the number of jobs eliminated by automation continues to increase, employers are also less willing to create jobs. In the article "Special report: Automation puts jobs in peril," Nathan Bomey, a business reporter for USA Today, explores the current position of manufacturing workers. In the article, Bomey explains how, "about 58% of CEOs plan to cut jobs over the next five years because of robotics, while 16% say they plan to hire more people because of robotics" (3). Only the United States Government has the power to create a solution to the quandary of workers affected by the switch to technology in the workforce.

“The Robot Invasion” written by Charlie Gillis in an article which informs the reader of current uses and capabilities of robots as well as elaborating on the expectation of advancement of robotic technology in the future. Though the reader never learns of the author’s professional background or experience on the subject, he uses evidence provided by numerous scientists and professionals in the field to lend credibility to the article. Throughout the reading, the audience is given the idea that while it is inevitable that robots will become commonplace in the future, there is adequate time to adjust education and skills to fit the needs of the future because of the current limitations of robots. Another point which is made is the thought that humans will be needed to work with the robots of the future, performing various tasks to keep them up to date and in working order. This information creates optimism for human job opportunities in the future for those who may be worried about a world in which they could become obsolete in the workplace. The subject of robots is relevant to issues that exist in society today. Not only are scientists tirelessly working to advance technology, robots have already made their way into everyday life and this is creating much optimism and hope for the future as well as stoking fears of those who believe that their livelihood is being threatened. Everyone has the potential to be affected by the anticipated changes which makes this article

You can believe those who say robots will over run the world in the future, but robots have multiple purposes that can do everything and will benefit us. Therefore, robots will play a very important part in our future to do the impossible. Breakthroughs will come quickly for robotic innovations. Driverless cars and new space information may take decades to come, while other completely unexpected robotic applications could

Currently, “about 47 percent of the U.S. workforce is at risk of becoming obsolete due to automation” (Castellano 22). A workerless future is not as farfetched as it once was. With the rapid advancements of technology, robots have been more effective and efficient than ever. Posing a big problem within the nation, more and more companies are acquiring robots as they are more cost efficient than regular laborers. This has political leaders worrying about the potential detrimental effects it could have on the US economy. Since 2000, the number of manufacturing jobs has fallen by almost 5 million (Thompson 53). Which equates to a loss of 300,000 human manufacturing jobs each year. At this rate, millions of people could be unemployed by the year

To begin, robotic development allows for technological growth as well as more convenience. Over the years, there have been many inventions made, that make life a lot easier. A lot of these new creations, were inspired by older developments, but they were improved for a product easier to

Rising unemployment is also another serious impact while using robots widely. Unemployment means demand for labor is less than the supply of labor, so there is an increasing proportion of workforce seeking work. Robots are usually major problems that are associated with it. It was reported that due to the increasing acceleration in automatic technology, over 5 million Australians lose their jobs, and it is projected to be at risk more than two decades (Hoy, 2014). Individuals who lose occupations must take time and effort to find another suitable one, but it is usually difficult because of the rapid technological changes. Professor Osborne also points out that more than 47 per cent of employment in United States is at risk of being automated

A robot is a computer-programmed electro-mechanical machine that has the capacity to perform tasks using an intelligent mind. Modern researchers continue to invent advanced robots to cater for their increasing demand. Industries are using robots to achieve what seems impossible with human beings; therefore, overlooking the misconception that robots came to replace the humans. One cannot fail to notice robots’ use in everyday life, directly or indirectly (Robbie, 2013). One finds robots in cars, houses, industries and even other places that are hardly noticeable. Indeed, robots have increasingly become a part of human life, and majorities of industries across the globe are extensively using them, which is one reason why society has come to accept them. Industrial robots have been in existence for a long time and with the high rate of industrialization have set the ball rolling for robots’ widespread use. Although there is a debate regarding whether people should continue developing them, they have numerous benefits to human beings, which support the call for their continued use, in the modern society.

If you think robots are the kind of thing you hear about in science-fiction movies, think again. Right now, all over the world, robots are performing thousands of tasks. They are probing our solar system for signs of life, building cars at the General Motors plants, assembling Oreo cookies for Nabisco and defusing bombs for the SWAT team. As they grow tougher, more mobile, and more intelligent, today’s robots are doing more and more of the things that humans can’t or don’t want to do and in many cases taking away the need for human labor.
