Robots(Advanced)

What is a robot?

According to wiki, a robot is a machine—especially one programmable by a computer—capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically. A robot can be guided by an external control device, or the control may be set within. Robots may be constructed to recall human form, but most robots are task-performing machines, designed with an attention on complete functionality, rather than expressive style.

What are the  three main parts of robots?

1. The Controller ‐ also known as the “brain” which is run by a computer program. Usually, the program is very detailed and gives commands of what the programmer has programmed.

2. Mechanical parts ‐ motors, pistons, grippers, wheels, and gears that make the robot move, grab, turn, and lift. These parts are usually powered by air, water, or electricity.

3. Sensors ‐ to tell the robot about its surroundings. Sensors allow the robot to determine sizes, shapes, space between objects, direction, and other relations and properties of substances. Many robots can even identify the amount of pressure necessary to apply to grab an item without crushing it.

What do robots do?

Imagine if your job was to do the same thing over and over again without doing any mistakes or taking some break. This is what robots do they do those things in which they have to do one thing over and over again. Robots are really helpful and so they are helping in most of the factories, making chocolates, doing dangerous things which can lead to burning or something serious. Robotic technology has helped people who have lost arms or legs or even themselves. Robots are a great tool to help mankind.

What are nanobots?

Nanobots are robots scaled down to microscopic size in order to put them into very small spaces to perform a function. Currently nanobots are still in development stage. Future nanobots could be placed in the blood stream to perform surgical procedures that are too difficult for standard surgery. Nanobots could fight bacteria by eliminating each bacterial cell or could repair organ cells of the body.

Imagine if a nanobot could target cancer cells and destroy them without touching healthy cells nearby. Nanobots would  carry medication and surgical tools on board. They could easily go inside the body and can easily find a way out. Nanobots could be used in many other situations too. Nanobots will be a great help for doctors as well.

So why use robots then?

The reason robots are used is that it is often cheaper to use them over humans, easier for robots to do some jobs and sometimes the only possible way to accomplish some tasks! Robots can explore inside volcanoes, travel the surface of Mars or other places too dangerous for humans to go where extreme temperatures or unclean environments exist.. Robots never get sick, don’t need sleep, don’t need food, don’t need to take a day off, does not ask for money in return, and best of all they don’t ever complain! There are a lot of benefits to using robots.

What are the things which robots can’t do?

Unlike in the movies, Robots are unable to think or make decisions; they are only tools to help us get things done. Robots are machines with programed movements that allow them to move in certain directions. Artificial intelligence has given robots more ability to process information and to “learn.” But, they are still limited by the information that they are given and the functions they are given to perform.

Hope you have collected many information about robots by now

This Person Does Not Exist

This Person Does Not Exist is a website where you can see many people that do not exist. Programmers have programmed computers of doing this. Programmers have given thousands of real humans to computers. And the computers have taken the features of different people among them. And the programmers have programmed that it should not be like any of these people.

And in futures there will be no actors, actress  etc. The computers will be well designed to be them.

And don’t forget to try checking “this person does not exist” from the link given.

How Muslims use robotics in their daily life

There are many Muslims that use robotics & technology in their day to life. Firstly, the Haram Piazza in Medina & Makkah. It automatically opens at the morning, due to extremely hot climate and it closes at the night.

There are five  robotic things that Muslims use in their daily life:

Firstly, with the help on gadgets, we can simply see the qibla direction.‘Masjid Qiblatain’: The mosque where Muslim prayer direction changed from Jerusalem to Makkah

 

Secondly, The sanitizing Robots in Makkah & Medina. The robot performs internal sterilization on six levels, which improves the strength and safety of environmental health.Number of sanitizing robots at Grand Mosque to increase

Saudi ministry offer Hajj outline and ‘Fatwa robot’ service. There is a version of the remote-controlled Fatwa robot designed for people with special need.Saudi ministry offers Hajj hotline and ‘Fatwa Robot’ service

 

Health ministry to use ‘Robots’ to diagnose patients during hajj.Medical staff from Riyadh and Jeddah have been trained on using this technology.Health Ministry to use 'robot' to diagnose patients during Hajj

 

Lastly, We can even take online classes for learning more things about Islam i.e Quran. We can also read read Quran and Dua from our gadgets.

Augmented reality

According to wikipedia, Argumented reality (AR) is an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that live in the real world are increased by computer-generated perceptual information, sometimes across multiple sensory modalities, including visual, auditory, haptic, somatosensory and olfactory. AR can be defined as a system that fulfills three basic features: a combination of real and virtual worlds, real-time interaction, and accurate 3D registration of virtual and real objects.The overlaid sensory information can be constructive (i.e. additive to the natural environment), or destructive (i.e. masking of the natural environment).This experience is seamlessly interwoven with the physical world such that it is perceived as an immersive aspect of the real environment. In this way, augmented reality alters one’s ongoing relaization of a real-world environment, whereas virtual reality completely replaces the user’s real-world environment with a simulated one. Augmented reality is related to two largely synonymous terms: mixed reality and computer-mediated reality.

What are robots?

Robots are machines programmed by computers. Robots can be guided by an external control device. Most robots are machines designed to perform a task with no regard to their aesthetics. Robots can help us in many ways.

Types of robots

There are many types of robots and some of them are:                                                      1. Mobile Robots                                                                                                                                      2. Industrial Robots                                                                                                                                3. Educational Robots                                                                                                                          4.Service Robots                                                                                                                                    5.Modular Robots                                                                                                                                and many more

What are the uses of robots?

Robots can be really useful to us. Robots are used in manufacturing, packing, transport, earth and space explorations, surgery, weaponry, laboratory research, industrial goods and many more.

Are robots harmful? 

Robots are not usually harmful to humans. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. A robot must obey the orders given by humans. But once a man was killed by a robot. A man name Robert Williams was the first man killed by a robot. He was an assembly worker at Ford’s Flat Rock plant in Michigan. He was crushed to death by the arm of a one-tonne  robot on the production line on 25 January 1979. His family was awarded $10 million in damages.

Can robots replace humans?

Yes, robots will replace humans in some ways like doing jobs, soon in the future, the only one to do jobs will be robots. And there will be job loss, and many workers will have less economic value. But robots can not just totally replace humans because there are many things that humans can do but robots can not.

Can robots take over the world?

Robots could take over 20 million manufacturing jobs around the world by 2030. And many people believe that within the next 10 years there could be 14 million robots put to work in China. And the global will start increasing in the next 20 years because of the robots. But there is no way robots could take over the world.

Hope you got a lot of information about robots from my blog.

Thank you!
