Robotics

Robotics is the applied science that investigates the development of the automatic technical systems (robots). The term was introduced by the science fiction writer Isaac Asimov in 1942.

Robotics demands the great knowledge in the sphere of electronics, mechanics, software and many other disciplines. There are also constructive, industrial, every-day, flight and extreme robotics.

Nowadays robotics develops a lot and the majority of the industry is computerised that means the use of robots for the tasks solution. But it is necessary to make the difference between robotics and artificial intelligence. Robotics is the science that makes the robots that solve the science according to the given by people algorithm and the artificial intelligence means the tasks solution with the help of their own made algorithm.

Nowadays the majority of robots use the electronic motors of two types. The role of their muscles is made by drive.

There are a lot of achievements in the sphere of the biological systems model. In other words several independent spheres can be referred to this science. The neural networks are used for the several independent solutions of tasks that are not very complicated. The genetic principle is based on the idea that the algorithm will become more efficient if it borrows the characteristics of other algorithms.

1. Artificial intelligence is the sphere of computer technologies that investigates the formalization of tasks that remind the tasks solved by people. The algorithm of the tasks solving is unknown beforehand. Sometimes there are also the tasks with the images taking that are traditionally included into the sphere of artificial intelligence investigation.

2. Scientists coincide in one point that the most complicated problem is not the imitation of the brain work but learning the principles of its work.

3. Those who support the idea of artificial intelligence creation say that any intellect can be regulated and controlled. Besides it will be programmed to help people and not to harm them.

4. The modern science of the Artificial intelligence (AI) gives four main principles of investigation that are the logical, the structural, the evolutional and the simulation principles.

5. With the development of technologies people considered the mechanical creatures to be something more than just the simple toys. The literature depicted the fears of people that humanity can be substituted by its own creation. The novel about Frankenstein is considered to be the first science-fiction work that depicted this problem.
