Digital Robotics
Introduction to Digital Robotics
• Programmed with If/Then statements, providing criteria and appropriate, pre-set behavior for each situation.
• Any defects in sensors used leads to malfunction.
• Examples: QRio (Sony), Asimo (Honda)
Kinds of Digital Robots• Entertainment (example: Sony Aibo or QRio)
• Industrial (example: painting and welding arms)
• Special-Effects (example: Jurrasic Park Dinosaurs)
• Research-based (example: Mars Rover, Honda Humanoid)
Digital RoboticsStrengths
• Precise, controllable movements.• If/Then statements dictate exact behavior.• Can repeat same task over and over.
Weaknesses• Can only deal with predicted events.• Less scalable technology.• Requires massive computing power for simple tasks.• Usually not self-contained. (separate computer)• Cannot function if damaged.• Not suited to natural environment.
BEAM Robotics
Introduction to BEAM Robotics
• What it means: Biology, Electronics, Aesthetics, Mechanics.
• Design philosophy: Simplest possible design to perform a specific task. (No unessential features).
• Uses no programming.• Mimics organic life.• Actions dictated by physical design.• High survivability.
Different types of BEAM Robots.
• AUDIOTROPE-which reacts to the sound sources
• RADIOTROPE-which reacts to the Radio frequency sources.
• PHOTOTROPE-which reacts to light sources.
• THERMOTROPE-which reacts to heat sources.
BEAM Robotics
Strengths• Adaptable behavior to fit situation.• Energy efficient.• Durable.• Renewable power source.• Adaptable to damage.• Protects self.• Can survive outside laboratory environment.
Weaknesses• Random behavior.• Not as taskable.• Inexact movements.• Not suited to “factory” environment.• Reflexive.
Simple autonomous Robot-RADIOTROPE
IMPLEMENTATION
Design• 4 limbs.• 2 solar cells i.e 1 for use and one for
backup.• RF sensor i.e only to sense the
enemy signals.• Neural networks to avoid collision• Wireless camera.• A position locater to locate the robot.
ARITIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS(ANN)
• An artificial neural network is composed of many artificial neurons that are linked together according to a specific network architecture
• Neurons mimic the properties of biological neurons.
• Each neuron of an artificial network learn from the environment in which robot is left.
ANN-implementation
try to create an learning environment which comprises of enemy TX, host TX and actual war field
environment. make neural networks to learn in this environment and make motors(which drives the wheels of robot)
to run according to knowledge gained from neurons. Now the robot is left in the war field to find enemy
TX.Robot reach the enemy TX without any collision due
to neural networks implementation.
