Since the 1980s, people have called systems with the ability to feel, think, make decisions act intelligent robots . If a robot has the ability to recognize, learn, think adapt to the environment, it is an intelligent robot. Intelligent robots generally consist of three parts:
1) Sports part
Intelligent robots need a trackless mobile mechanism to adapt to different geographical environments such as flat ground, steps, walls, stairs, ramps, etc. Their functions can be achieved by using mobile mechanisms such as wheels, tracks, brackets, suction cups, air cushions, etc. During the movement process, the mobile mechanism must be controlled in real time. This control only includes position control, but also force control, position force mixed control, elasticity control, etc. The moving part includes walking mechanism, manipulator, gripper.
2) Smart part
The intelligent part of an intelligent robot includes cognitive ability, learning ability, thinking ability decision-making ability. The intelligent part considers what kind of action to take based on the information obtained the sensory elements. The intelligent part of an intelligent robot is the key of the three parts is also the necessary part that people must give to robots. The intelligent part includes intellectual activities such as judgment, logical analysis, understanding. These intellectual activities are essentially an information processing process, computers are the primary means to complete this processing process. Robot development
3) Sensation
The sensory part includes non-contact sensors that can sense vision, proximity, distance, etc. contact sensors that can sense force, pressure, touch, etc., to understand the surrounding environment. In essence, the sensory part is equivalent to the eyes, nose, ears other five senses of human beings. Their functions can be completed by electromechanical components such as cameras, image sensors, ultrasonic transmitters, lasers, conductive rubber, piezoelectric elements, pneumatic elements, travel switches, etc.
Scientists are developing more more advanced intelligent robots, primarily based on the human body. The first prerequisite is to have a very realistic humanoid appearance, Japan should be relatively advanced in this regard. When perfect artificial skin, artificial hair, artificial facial features, etc. are properly covered on the robot, it stands there with perfect human orthodox gestures. At first glance a distance, you would really mistake it for a living person, but when you get closer, you will find that it is just a robot. Robot development
The movements of robots usually imitate those of humans, the movements that humans can make are extremely diverse. Waving, shaking hands, walking, running, jumping, other gestures are all common movements of humans. However, although modern intelligent robots can imitate some of the movements of humans, they are relatively rigid their movements are relatively slow. In the future, robots will use more sensitive human-like joints simulated artificial muscles to make their movements more like humans, thereby imitating all human movements even making them more realistic. Robots can make some movements that are difficult for ordinary people to make, such as somersaults on flat ground handstands.
For future robots, the level of simulation is likely to reach the point even if you look closely at its appearance, you will only think it is a human being it is difficult to tell that it is a robot. This situation is like the robot character in the American science fiction blockbuster "Terminator" has an extremely perfect human appearance.
