Robotics-Today

 Robots today serve many functions, but all have a common purpose. They are built to complete a task. Robots today are found in many houses, from vacuuming, to playing with the kids; there’s a robot to do almost anything. Robotics are much more known when it comes to the military, or industrial scene. 

Roomba is a famous robot, that brought an affordable robot into an average persons life. This little robot w as released in the 02’ and has been the icon of household robotics ever since. A Roomba can clean a room in as little as 15 minutes, and find its way back to the charger, all autonomously.  Another common household robot are home alarms. They are used across the world to detect a household break-in, as well as alert the authorities when necessary. These are completely autonomous as well. All cars you see today have some of the finest electronics in them. And the best part is, the average person will never even know that they’re working. Cars today monitor and log speed, acceleration, gas usage, break usage, and even the number of passengers in the car. These points of data help maintain the car, and keep it efficient. Cars today are also able to detect collisions, and report your position to emergency personnel, as well as unlock the car, put on hazards, and turn off the car.

Robots have been in the military for many years, and help to do almost every task. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV’s) are meant to scout, and even bomb enemy territory, without risking human injury. They are wirelessly controller, and can also be completely autonomous. Tanks today also have autonomous features, to allow for more precise shooting, and to help protect the users. All military vehicles have advanced robotic elements on them, to help protect the drivers, including GPS, a satellite radio, and advanced cameras to see far into the distance.  Weapons today have many interesting features, including night vision, thermal vision, and even digital scopes. All of these features help the soldier ‘lock-on’ more easily, and increase efficiency.

Robots have been used in the industrial world since the 70s. Machines now work on almost everything, to increase work efficiency, as well as cost efficiency. They build cars, most small electronics, and even the can you drink your soda from. That’s the reason that all products are kept consistent, and cheap.
