    Automation has taken many forms in the past century with new technologies being introduced and great innovations being made. Automation was first established in 1913 with the assembly line: “The introduction of the assembly line at Ford Motor Company in 1913 is often cited as one of the first forms of automation” (Dias, 2014). While this type of automation is very different from what we experience today, it is a great example of just how time saving it can be to add automation to a production process

    requirement for artificial intelligence. As the years go by the perception of AI doesn’t change much until the 1977 Sci-fi film “Star Wars” was released. Suddenly, the robots were the “good guys”. C-3PO is a perfect example of a friendly robot and quickly became recognized as one of the kindest robots in the history of movie robots. Hollywood films have done a good job of explaining that it is up to us to determine if AI works to benefit humanity or help in its destruction.

    Todays robots are used in various industries from manufacturing to military, as technology advances more robots are becoming independent. As their systems increase in complexity, so too will their capabilities and scope of employment. Progresses in the sciences may one day permit for the blending of human and robotic functioning at scales where they become indistinguishable from each other. These future achievements in engineering could potentially redefine human properties; undoubtedly, the ethical

    technology, a method that enriches the act of craft in a more liberated way. There are two the main factors that broaden the architectural design potentials by the use of the robotic technology. First, the control software plays a crucial role because robots enable the manufacturing of object directly from their digital description, thus, the designer is enabled with an in depth interaction with the manufacturing processes that emerge and grasps the opportunity to experiment with non-standard project

    Artificial intelligence (AI) will one day take over our jobs. It says that we as humans should be prepared for the day that computers will take our jobs. AI will take our jobs by using robots and computers built so smart that they can think and do exactly what humans can do. So of course businesses are going to want a robot that they pay for once instead of a person that they pay hourly. The best way to have a safe job is to attend college again and get a degree in a field of work computers can't

    Kilobots are small, each one is equipped with three legs that move when vibrated, a LED light, and a light sensor. They are relatively simple in comparison to the majority of robots. Today most robots are built with many complex features that allow them to perform highly specialized tasks, rather than a wide variety. Because Kilobots are simple, it is possible to create large swarms of them sometimes even in the thousands. Individually kilobots are prone to error and often make mistakes, but when
