Robotics &amp Artificial Intelligence

The document defines robots and describes different types of robots: pick and place robots that move items between points, and continuous path control robots that move along a programmable path using sensors for feedback. It distinguishes between automation, which are machines designed for specific tasks like bottling or painting, and robots, which are designed to perform a variety of tasks like pick and place or mobile operations. Measures of robot performance are also discussed, including working volume, speed and acceleration, resolution, accuracy, and repeatability.

Definition: A robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through variable programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks. (Robot Institute of America)

Alternate definition: A robot is a one-armed, blind idiot with limited memory and which cannot speak, see, or hear.

Types of robots

Pick and place

Moves items between points

Continuous path control

Moves along a programmable path Employs sensors for feedback

Sensory

Sensory

Uses sensors for feedback. Closed-loop robots use sensors in conjunction with actuators to gain higher accuracy servo motors. Uses include mobile robotics, telepresence, search and rescue, pick and place with machine vision.

Automation vs. robots


Automation Machinery designed to carry out a specific task Bottling machine Dishwasher Paint sprayer Robots machinery designed to carry out a variety of tasks Pick and place arms Mobile robots Computer Numerical Control machines

Continuous path control

Moves along a specific path Uses include welding, cutting, machining parts.

Pick and Place


Moves items from one point to another Does not need to follow a specific path between points Uses include loading and unloading machines, placing components on circuit boards, and moving parts off conveyor belts.

Measures of Performance

Working volume

The space within which the robot operates. Larger volume costs more but can increase the capabilities of a robot Faster speed often reduces resolution or increases cost Varies depending on position, load. Speed can be limited by the task the robot performs (welding, cutting)

Speed and acceleration

Resolution
Often a speed tradeoff The smallest step the robot can take

Performance ( cont .)
Accuracy The difference between the actual position of the robot and the programmed position Repeatability Will the robot always return to the same point under the same control conditions? Increased cost Varies depending on position, load
