7 Robotics Tasks

8 Jobs that are dangerous for humans Decontaminating Robot Cleaning the main circulating pump housing in the nuclear power plant

9 Repetitive jobs that are boring, stressful, or labor-intensive for humans

10 The SCRUBMATE Robot

11 Knowledge for Robotics

12 Disciplines: mathematics, physics, biology, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science

13 Key Components

14 Power conversion unit Sensors Actuators User interface Controller Manipulator linkage Base

15 Gear, rack, pinion, etc. Cam and Follower Inclined plane wedge Chain and sprocket Slider-Crank Lever Linkage

16 Human senses: sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell provide us vital information to function and survive Robot sensors: measure robot configuration/condition and its environment and send such information to robot controller as electronic signals (e.g., arm position, presence of toxic gas) Robots often need information that is beyond 5 human senses (e.g., ability to: see in the dark, detect tiny amounts of invisible radiation, measure movement that is too small or fast for the human eye to see) Accelerometer Using Piezoelectric Effect Flexiforce Sensor

17 Vision Sensor: e.g., to pick bins, perform inspection, etc. Part-Picking: Robot can handle work pieces that are randomly piled by using 3-D vision sensor. In-Sight Vision Sensors

18 Force Sensor: e.g., parts fitting and insertion, force feedback in robotic surgery Force Sensors Parts fitting and insertion: Robots can do precise fitting and insertion of machine parts by using force sensor. It can automate high-skill jobs.

19 Example KOALA ROBOT 6 ultrasonic sonar transducers to explore wide, open areas Obstacle detection over a wide range from 15cm to 3m 16 built-in infrared proximity sensors (range 5-20cm) Infrared sensors act as a virtual bumper and allow for negotiating tight spaces

20 Example Planar Bipedal Robot Tilt sensors: e.g., to balance a robot

21

22 Gear, rack, pinion, etc. Hydraulic Motor Stepper Motor Servo Motor Pneumatic Motor Pneumatic Cylinder DC Motor

23 Provide necessary intelligence to control the manipulator/mobile robot Process the sensory information and compute the control commands for the actuators to carry out specified tasks

24 Storage devices: e.g., memory to store the control program and the state of the robot system obtained from the sensors

25 RoboBoard Robotic Controller RoboBoard Robotic Controller

26 Interface units: Hardware to interface digital controller with the external world (sensors and actuators) Operational Amplifiers Analog to Digital Converter LM358 LM358 LM1458 dual operational amplifier
