ROBOTS….Name : Mohammed Ahmed Al BlooshiID : ST 102 11 20 162Grade : 10.02

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a robot?

For many people it is a machine that imitates a human—like the androids in Star Wars, Terminator and Star Trek: The Next Generation. However much these robots capture our imagination, such robots still only inhabit Science Fiction. People still haven't been able to give a robot enough 'common sense' to reliably interact with a dynamic world. However, Rodney Brooks and his team at MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab are working on creating such humanoid robots.The type of robots that you will encounter most frequently are robots that do work that is too dangerous, boring, onerous, or just plain nasty. Most of the robots in the world are of this type. They can be found in auto, medical, manufacturing and space industries. In fact, there are over a million of these type of robots working for us today.

Robots as good characters…Toyota violin-playing robot

This mechanical musician had a violin recital at the Shanghai World Expo last year, but Toyota is developing the line as personal assistants or “partner robots.”

da Vinci Surgical System

While the da Vinci isn’t performing the operations, this kind of robotic technology was a huge advancement for surgical procedures, allowing doctors to control its four robotic arms remotely.

GERTY (Moon)

Of course director Duncan Jones turned to Kevin Spacey to give his monotone robot a depth of character. We make few exceptions for emoticon tolerance, but we’ll make one for Mr. Spacey.—Sean Doyle

Robots as bad characters…

Bubo – Clash of the Titans.What did the remake of Clash Of The Titans miss the most? That’s right, Bubo. When Zeus orders his daughter Athena to give up her pet owl Bubo so it can help Perseus, she creates a mechanical version of it instead, which turns out to be far more useful to our hero. Not content with showing Perseus the way to the Stygian witches, Bubo also fetches Pegasus for the weakened Perseus, and then takes on the Kraken solo before helping kill it with Medusa’s head. Not bad for a comedy sidekick. And proof that robotic versions of living things are better.

Auto – Wall-E

Okay, so he’s heavily indebted to HAL in look and personality, the automated computer and pilot of the Axiom, Auto, lifts himself above the usual imitators by being a genuine threat to Wall-E and EVE. Voiced entirely by Mac in a nice touch, Auto is the seemingly helpful machine turned bad and driven by its own logic and previous orders.
