Are mechanical robots alive?

No, mechanical robots are not alive. Also, they are known as androids...

A robot, at its simplest, is a machine that can perform tasks normally undertaken by people. Some are operator controlled and some move autonomously (at least for as long as their power sources will allow). They range in form from single robotic arms to fully humanoid bodies. One of the major goals of some roboticists is to make robots appear more humanlike, at least in part to facilitate more natural interaction between robots and people. A robot whose appearance and actions mimic those of a human being more closely than its metal-skinned counterparts is often called an android. I hope this helps! 🙂

How do people make robots move and please make it simple?

robots move by operating motor to drive them

motors run via circuitry that turns them on/off

the circuitry turns them on/off in response to commands transmitted to it

commands r transmitted thru wired or wireless means.

What is an airplane with two wings called?

An airplane with two wings is called a biplane. It is characterized by having one pair of wings, one on top of the other. Biplanes were popular in the early days of aviation but are now less commonly seen.

What sources of power are used to make a robot work?

photo Voltaic CellsPhoto Voltaic Cells or solar cells are well known for their use as power sources for satellites, environmentalist green energy campaigns and pocket calculators. In robotics solar cells are used mainly in BEAM robots. Commonly these consist of a solar cell which charges a capacitor and a small circuit which allows the capacitor to be charged up to a set voltage level and then be discharged through the motor(s) making it move.

For a larger robot solar cells can be used to charge its batteries. Such robots have to be designed around energy efficiency as they have little energy to spare.

BatteriesBatteries are an essential component of the majority of robot designs. Many types of batteries can be used. Batteries can be grouped by whether or not they are rechargeable.

Batteries that are not rechargeable usually deliver more power for their size, and are thus desirable for certain applications. Various types of alkaline and lithium batteries can be used. Alkaline batteries are much cheaper and sufficient for most uses, but lithium batteries offer better performance and a longer shelf life.

Common rechargeable batteries include lead acid, nickel-cadmium (Ni Cd)and the newer nickel metal-hydride (Ni-MH). Ni Cd & Ni-MH batteries come in common sizes such as AA, but deliver a smaller voltage than alkaline batteries (1.2V instead of 1.5V). They also can be found in battery packs with specialized power connectors. These are commonly called race packs and are used in the more expensive RC race cars. They will last for some time if used properly. Ni-MH batteries are currently more expensive than Ni Cd, but are less affected by memory effect.

Lead acid batteries are relatively cheap and carry quite a lot of power, although they are quite heavy and can be damaged when they are discharged below a certain voltage. These batteries are commonly used as backup power supply in alarm systems and UPS.

Who was the first robot?

So far the first robot goes to the Chinese (it was a huge water clock with several automatons that did things like display plaques and ring bells), although many artifacts are being unearthed and cataloged that make it a tight race between the Iraq region, Egypt, Greece and India. A short history is in the link below.

Can robots talk like humans?

Its all about the way that how we tackle the problem of 100% output in sound recognition technology. input sound = Output sound ----0% sound signal loss. In new generation of technology we have to create a device material or An audio amplifier which have no loss in output signal. We all know that an audio signal is always different than real sound at that time we have not any device which overcome this difficulty sometimes this type of problems is very useful in transmissions. EXAMPLE-----} Human call: 4 Code in some digital style-0100 Robot Listen:0111 {some type of digital code} we see the difference in two signal can tackle by the method of sound code recognition technology.. So we hope that robot will talk like human...

Sure they can talk! Just tell them what to say and program them!

If they refuse then, BUILD A NEW ONE

How do robots commitcate?

Robots are run by computers which communicate with numbers, represented by binary combinations of high and low voltages of electricity.

Jobs that robots do?

Here are some places:
  • Outer space
  • Attached to animals
  • In your bloodstream (nanobots)
  • Radioactive areas
  • Areas with extreme temperatures

Is the Spanish word for robot robot?

Yes, although it is pronounced somewhat differently. In Spanish, "robot" is pronounced with the accent on the second syllable and the "r" at the beginning is pronounced with a slight roll as in "carro." The rest is more or less like English.

What careers and jobs use robots?

Robots are expected to be the most cost-effective solution to many problems in the future. Currently, scientists are making impressive new robotic equipment in many different fields. Aviation, computers, appliances and healthcare are just a few of the major fields that currently use robotics. Robotic engineers who work with computer aspects are responsible for creating, programming and testing computer codes into the robotic equipment. They also build the equipment. Their job often requires long and irregular hours and travel. Many robotics creators must travel with their equipment to demonstrate it and be available if anything goes wrong with it. Some robotic equipment is not just tested immediately; there are very sensitive pieces of equipment that must be monitored for years. For example, in the medical field, a new robotic piece of equipment may not be tested right away if it is involved in operating on a human. It must be analyzed, tested in the lab and retested for a long period of time before it can be released.

Becoming a robotic engineer does not involve enrolling in one specific program. Earning a Master's or Doctoral degree is necessary to work with robotics. There are thousands of aspects to learn about computerized programming and the creation of robots. In addition to this, students must also choose their specialty area. For example, a robotics creator who specializes in medical technology would help create and test medical robotic assistive operating devices. This same person would not create robotic equipment for appliances, though. Each field has its own applied information that must be learned, so it is important to choose one area of specialty before enrolling in a program.

Robotics engineers are paid well. Their salaries reflect the extensive skills and knowledge they spend so many years in school obtaining. Depending on experience, salaries may range between $75,000 and $250,000. These factors depend on what type of robotics are created, the skill and demand for the skill of the worker and the amount of education an applicant has. There are limitless opportunities for advancement and further training to switch a specific robotics field area.

What is Lego Mindstorms NXT Model for Robotics?

The NXT is a Lego Micro Proscesor that can be connected to three motors* and four sensors*. It can be Programmed in several different Programming Languages, and use several third party sensors other than the four supplyed in the base set.

The NXT is not realy a "Model for robotics" it is a very functional robot disign system, which has been steryotyped to seem like a toy.

any more questions may be asked a forums.nxtasy.org where people that have a better answer will answer to you.

How can one make a robot out of cardboard?

One can make a robot out of cardboard quite easily with old boxes and a few household items including empty wrapping paper tube, several mini and 1 large empty boxes of cereal, scissors glue and silver paint. First make the body out of the cardboard boxes, the limbs using the wrapping paper tubes and the hands and feet using the cereal boxes. Next paint the whole robot silver and glue the pieces together.

Is cleverbot an actual person talking to you?

Yes. You do it says at the bottom that its not a real person and it learn from people

but its a human you talk to. but about 4 texts later it switches you with another person so you may get confused

you- so do you go to school?

cleverbot- yes

you- but your a computer

cleverbot- no your the bot.

you- no im not!!

cleverbot- if you can read then how are you reading what I say?

see it mixes you up with other convos and you are being swaped between real people.

What is the best way to kill a robot?

Go to its back and shoot its head 5 or 6 times and he blows up.
