What are some uses of computers in robotics?

Personal computers (PC) have a large number of ports to which you could add you own hardware to control your robot. Some of these are very easy to use, while others are nearly impossible without special (expensive) ICs. Not all of these interfaces are available on all computers. This section gives an overview of some of the best known ports on a PC. These ports and their uses are well document all over the internet.

How do you put videos on your phone?

you could try emailing it but instead of putting in an email into the to: field put a phone number. I don't know if it will work but worth a try! Pictures From Phone to Computer

We all know that cell phones are one of today's big crazes. An even bigger one is camera cell phones. Before we know it, all cell phones will probably have camera abilities, because the world today likes to see real images rather than just words. So, it may be a good idea to know what you can do with the pictures you take on your phone after the shooting is done.

Picture Messaging

A common way that people transfer photos from their cell phones to their computers (that doesn't really have any additional cost from your regular monthly bill) is picture messaging. It works pretty much the same as text messaging; you just have to have text messaging enabled on your cell phone. If you don't, this method will not work.

Note: Expect this method to be a little different for various phone models, but the following directions are pretty basic and similar for all phones.

If you would like to send a picture to another person's cell phone or if you want to e-mail a picture to a friend or even to yourself, you just need to open your phone and go to the Menu. Find your phone's Media Gallery and then choose Pictures. At this point, you can pick the photo you'd like to send. Once you have it chosen, go to Options and choose Send in Message (like you're sending a text message). This is where you choose to send it to one of the Contacts listed in your phone or if you want to e-mail it to someone or yourself. Pick the person you're sending it to and push the OK button and then Send.

You can also send text with the picture if you want to do that. If you end up e-mailing the picture to someone, you will just have to type in their e-mail address and they will get it in their Inbox. You just need to make sure the person you're sending the picture to has picture capabilities too.

Data Cable

Another way you can transfer photos to other people is to put them directly onto your computer, so you can e-mail them to your friends or save them to a disk or a CD. So, to do that, you have to have some sort of a USB data connection kit, which comes with the cable cord that plugs your phone into your computer's USB port and the software that will help you in transferring the pictures from your phone. You usually have to purchase these kits separate from your phone. The store where you buy your phone should have them available and they will be able to tell you which one will work with your type of phone.

Once you have your phone and computer connected, you can start transferring the pictures. Again, keep in mind that these kits are phone specific, so you need to make sure that you get one that will be compatible with your phone model.

Bluetooth

Another way to handle the pictures on your cell phone that is becoming more popular every day is a wireless technology called Bluetooth. Bluetooth works with short-range wireless technologies that allow you to easily send photos from your phone to a laptop or desktop computer. The computer you are sending them to just has to be equipped to accept the pictures.

The most difficult (but it can sometimes be fairly easy) part about Bluetooth is matching the phone to the computer, so they are both compatible with each other. But, once that it is done, sending the images couldn't be easier.

As long as your phone has the Bluetooth software on it, you can send the images without any extra charges billed to you. You can also send photos to other Bluetooth users' phones without any wires or additional charges. This seems to be the most versatile way to go if you're looking to maybe spend a little more money up front for the Bluetooth works, but it will save you money in the long run when you don't have to pay any extra charges when sending your pictures back and forth.

E-mail

Another way for you to send pictures between your friends and family is to e-mail them. Your cell phone has to have e-mail capabilities for this to work, but a lot of the phones these days come with that ability. You can e-mail them to other people or, as mentioned above, to yourself. You just have to type the e-mail address in the To: field just like you would if you were using Outlook Express and it will be sent.

If you see something while you're out and about that you just have to take a picture of, you can snap the photo on your phone, send yourself a quick e-mail and when you get home, the picture will be on your computer waiting for you. You can then send it off to other people or do something like set it as your desktop wallpaper.

Removable Memory Cards

Another new technology that is presenting itself with camera phones is an external memory card for your phone. The phone just comes with a slot for the card and you can transfer the shots to your computer in a snap. You will need to purchase an external memory card reader so it will all work, but it's one of the easiest ways to go if you takes several pictures with your cell phone.

When you have the card reader installed, you just remove the memory card from your phone, insert it into the reader and your computer will recognize it as another drive. You can then drag and drop the photos wherever you want them to go, e-mail them to others, etc. The options are pretty endless with this choice. You can then get rid of the existing pictures on your phone (since they're on your computer and not lost) and go out and take more. It's that easy!

Just one more reminder: all of these applications work differently with different phones, so make sure you refer to your phone's manual before doing anything you're not sure of.

How do robots die?

Of course they can stop working. If you call that "die", that would imply that they somehow were "alive". So the real question is, "are robots alive"? I believe the answer, so far, is "no", and perhaps it will remain so for evermore.

On the other hand...

This is a very good question... because it gets to the heart of what it means to be human and what it means to be alive.

Do dogs die? Of course they do. They live, and then they die. So having a human soul and human intelligence is not required to be able to die. But what if we made it so that dogs never died? If dogs could have their spirit and intelligence and memories transferred to a new body, or stored until they got put into a new body, then could we say dogs died? Yes, dogs would still die -- but only if we didn't do the things necessary to keep them going. Otherwise, dogs (and humans) could be maintained and kept going indefinitely. This is the situation we find with robots, who are much easier to maintain for longer times because of their sturdier parts -- titanium and silicon and composite carbon, as opposed to the squishy jelly that makes up dogs and humans.

Now turn it around. Are robots ever alive? Mankind has long imbued special inanimate objects with spirit. Swords, boats, cars -- men often give these things names and treat them as if they had some kind of living spirit. And robots will probably become more and more lifelike, just like the robots/replicants in Blade Runner; made out of organic material like us, who's to say a robot/android isn't alive? As robots become more and more intelligent, and more able to make seemingly independent decisions, won't robots become more like dogs and less like cars? In which case, robots can die. Unless we take the steps to keep their spirit and intelligence and memories transferred or stored. Just like with dogs and humans.

"Do robots die?" is a much easier question to answer than "Do robots have souls?"

Where can one buy robot kits for children online?

There are a few good places to by a cheap robot for a kid. Toy stores sell toy robots for younger kids, and they are very cheap since they are just toys. For something more realistic, check Amazon for some actual robots to find a good price.

Disadvantages of the GSM technologies?

Dropped and Missed Calls
  • According to Cellular News, call quality problems, including dropped calls and missed calls are common problems with GSM technology. These problems result directly from the technology in use. GSM technology cannot accommodate as many callers on a single cell tower as the more modern CDMA technology. This means that callers in areas where there are not a preponderance of cell towers may find that the call problems on GSM will be more common.

  • Security Issues
  • ZDNet UK reports that GSM has a serious security flaw, demonstrated by a hacker who was able to intercept phone calls from a number of GSM-based cellular phones. The problem is based directly on the technology according to this hacker and his solution was to "turn off" the GSM technology (only the older 2G technology though) that is commonly used by people all over the world. The problem is largely mitigated however by the use of the more modern 3G technology that is commonly used (as of November, 2010) on many GSM phones.

  • Efficiency
  • Another problem with GSM is a network problem rather than a consumer problem, though it is a consumer problem for those who don't want to see a proliferation of cellular towers. As previously noted, GSM technology can handle fewer callers on a single cellular tower. Therefore, networks who work with GSM must find ever more areas to built GSM cellular towers, causing them to have problems with costs and locations. By the same token, some consumers who prefer not to see a proliferation of cellular towers consider this a problem because the cellular towers must be placed in more and more urban areas, potentially spreading more radiation and causing what some consider a blight on the landscape.

Which is the best Forex Robot?

For me the best robot you could ever have is the one built by yourself, I know it requires a lot of knowledge but it's better to have the strategy that worked for you automated than some robots that only promise windfalls and you end up losing everything.

A good place to start though would be to Use MetaTrader4 as a trading platform. It lets you test the robots you choose against historical data and run paper trades or dummy runs with demo accounts.

Also if you are buying Forex robot don't forget to run backtesting that can show is system worth its money.

Why did they cancel the show robot wars?

Because people made robots that where to strong to be destroyed.

but there have been roomers of a sires 8

^ Rather, they were made ridicuously dangerous. Wheely big cheese could flip 100kg robots out of the arena and hit the polycarbonate guards protecting the audience, probably even break them. Multiple robots with spinning blades found it easier to destroy the arena walls, and Razer even managed to cause some serious damage to Matilda.

And I seriously doubt series 8 will be released, it was cancelled early 10 years ago.

What country is leading in robotics?

the world's first working robot joined the assembly line at the General Motors plant in Ewing Township in the spring of 1961. It was nothing like the metallic humanoid robots seen in movies and on television in those days in America and Japan.

What task does a rescue robot perform?

Rescue robots are used for mining accidents, urban disasters, hostage situations, and explosions. People who work to rescue survivors could lose their jobs to these robots. It will need a strong supply of power to keep these robots working. They major impact of this robot is it has saved many lives.

Why should one hire a Virtual Personal Assistant?

You would hire such an assistant for the same reason you hire any assistant: if you have too many things to do, can afford to pay for one, and think that your time is better spent elsewhere than for whatever tasks you hire the assistant for.

Can robots do jobs without human help True or False?

False. A robot has to be programmed by humans. The robots used in a car manufacturing company can only do tasks in assembling cars by following the instructions given it by human computer programmers. Artificial Intelligence will eventually produce robots that can think and make decisions for themselves. One example is the development of driverless cars. But that is still in the future! There is development to build a robot that can walk, talk, climb up and down stairs. What does the future in robotics hold? I see a time when paralized people, who can't walk or move without a wheelchair, can sit in a robotic contraption and move, walk, up and down stairs, moving as though they were not paralized at all.
