The US Army‚ Navy‚ Air Force‚ and Marines have deployed approximately 6‚000 robots (Mokhoff). As one can see‚ robotic technology in the military is playing an ever-increasing role. More importantly‚ they are taking humans out of danger by going into dangerous situations that would be considered suicide missions to humans. Robots are particularly used for roles dealing with what people in the field call the “Three D’s”-tasks that are dull‚ dirty‚ or dangerous. Many military missions can be incredibly

MS CS‚ FALL 2008 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE I can still recall my entry to the world of engineering. Those days were fun-filled as the technical festival of our college was on. Being an amateur then‚ I was thrilled to see students maneuver powerful robots and stare at the computer screens for various programming events. Even glowing of an L.E.D. or the correct output of a trivial program would fascinate me. Three enriching years have flown by quickly. However‚ the zeal never sagged and continued to

has slowly evolved into the battlefield with machines like drones and UAVs leading the way. While intimidating‚ the inclusion of robots in warfare seems to be a natural evolution. With human oversight‚ advancements in robotics serve to bring a new dimension of defense. In We Should Not Ban ‘Killer Robots‚’ and Here’s Why by Evan Ackerman and “War Machines: Recruiting Robots for Combat” by John Markoff‚ the authors discuss the evolution of robotics in warfare. Among the arguments‚ both talk of their

Any appliance or machine made to [simulate a human task] falls under the category of artificial intelligence. From a [Blackberry] to a robot that can perform the daily tasks of a human‚ artificial intelligence is widespread. Artificial intelligence is a whole new way to go about technology.

There are various tutorials and examples about this subject. Most of these works are implemented on ROS (Robot Operating System) environment using Gazebo or Rviz. Simulation process involves several problems as follows: An indoor environment and should be created. A Quadcopter and sensing unit model implementation. Data flow from simulation environment

Technology has brought tremendous change in our lives. Scientists are continuously working to develop new technologies to provide more useful products in order to make our lives easier. We get up from the bed hearing the sweet fm alarm‚ brush our teeth with electric brush. In the mean time the oven heats up our breakfast. We eat food‚ check the weather in phone‚ and watch the daily news to know the most recent news. Then we take our laptop and head to our workplace by car. That is how we usually

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. These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes‚ or resemble humans in appearance‚ behavior‚ and/or cognition. Many of today’s robots are inspired by nature contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics. The concept of
