Done by: Abdelrahman Elsafty
Form: 9A

2. What is Robotics?
• Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the
design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as
well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback,
and information processing.
• The design of a given robotic system will often contain
principles of mechanical and electronic
engineering and computer science.
• The word robotics was first used in 1941 by the
writer Isaac Asimov.

3. Branches of Robotics
• Artificial Intelligence: the developing of an intelligence of
machine and is a branch of computer science
• Nanorobotics: the field of creating machines that are at a
scale of a nanometre
• Telepresence: the study given to an illusion of being at a
place without being there physically
• Robot Locomotion: the study of the methods that robots
use to transport themselves from place to another

5. The History of Robotics

6. Da Vinci sketched the
first humanoid robot in
1495
Unimate, the first
industrial robot was
designed in 1961
George Devol and Joseph
Engelberger formed the
world’s first robot company in
1956
The first artificial robotic arm to
be controlled by computer was
designed at Rancho Los Amigos
Hospital in Downey in 1963
The Soviet Union
launches the first
artificial orbiting
satellite in 1957
Neil Armstrong became
the first human to land
on the moon in 1969

7. First mobile robot
controlled by artificial
intelligence was designed
in 1970
Epsom release the
smallest known robot
helicopter in 2004
Mars Pathfinder’s
sojourner rover landed on
Mars for the first time in
1977
Honda debuts a new
humanoid robot
called Asimo in 2002
The Roomba robotic vacuum
cleaner has sold over 2.5
million units in 2008

8. What are Robots?
• Robot is a programmable machine that takes
the actions or appearance of an intelligent
creature which is usually a human.
• The Czech author, Karel Capek is the one who
called it robot which comes from
the Czech word robota which
means slave
• It was first used in a fictional
play in the 1920s called
Rossum’s Universal Robots.

9. The Laws of Robots
• These laws were introduced by the writer Isaac Asimov in 1942
which are:
1. Robot may not injure a human being or through inaction, allow a
human being to come to harm
2. Robot must obey orders given by human beings unless they
conflict with the first law
3. Robot must protect its own existence unless it conflicts with the
first or second law
4. Robot may not injure humanity or allow humanity to
come to harm

10. Types of Robots by Locomotion
• Stationary Robots: robots that can’t move as
they are fixed in a certain place and only its
arms can move.
• Mobile Robots: robots that can move
around freely either by walking or
rolling.

11. Rethink Robot
The Robotic Vacuum Cleaner
AIBO
Da Vinci Robot
The Disposal Bomb Robot
The Curiosity Rover

12. The Advantages of Robots
• Perform the defined tasks with speed and accuracy
• Give us information that we can’t
• Don’t get bored
• Work at any time without salary or food
• Can work in dangerous environment
• Can do many tasks at the same time
• Don’t need experience

13. The Disadvantages of Robots
• Can’t respond in emergencies
• Cost a lot of money
• Replace human workers
• Need a huge power supply

14. Future of Robotics
•
•
•
•
•
Every person will have a robot at home
Robots will do all the household tasks
Robots will take care of children and elderly
Nanorobots will be made
The whole army will be composed
of robots
• Robots will perform surgeries
• Robot brains that are based on
computers can be ordered 100
trillion instructions per second
will be made
