Talos was a gigantic bronze creature, the guardian of the island Crete. He was claimed to have been created in Sardinia by Hephaestus and given the Cretan king Minos. This may have happened in about 400 BCE.Throughout the Middle Ages and Renaissance craftsmen made automatons that could write, imitate birds or appear to walk. These were more toys than robots.

The first industrial robot was created in 1954 by George Devol. He called it the Universal Automation.

They typical run from $150 up to as high as $600, depending on how much the seller is willing to sell it for (and, of course, how much someone is willing to pay). There are often several for sale on eBay.

Note that this robot is quite heavy and bulky, so shipping costs will be high as well, adding to the overall cost.

she is half robot and half human because she was a cybertron protoform and was touched by isaac and knocked him unconsious and when he woke up sari was there

A robot can do whatever you make him to do. That is the purpose of competitions like LEGO First and Lawrence Tech's RoboFest (www.robofest.org). These competitions allow students to discovery the many capabilities of computer controlled mechanial mechanisms. The possibilities are limitless, the vision is yours.

i really don't think robots will rule the world but i cant tell the future so i guess u will just have to see.

Because There Would Be Fiber Seeds In The Cotton.

Using sensors it was programmed to use.

I'm not specialist in robotics but rationally thinking person. for me main difference is that pick and place robots must at least have inteligence to pick randomly placed objects and computation where this objects to be set.br shiva

Some negatives about modern day communication includes the lack of physical interaction and a break down in communication. People can overcome this by talking and visiting with each other.

Lots of info and a help forum!

Good luck!!

ps: robots rock!

many thousands.

While there are a few minor changes that you can make to a vehicle's computer, in general the program is in ROM, and you'll need to replace the ROM to make changes to the way the vehicle runs.

In some situations the dealer can connect one of their diagnostic computers and flash a new program into the ROM, but beyond that, you'd need an expensive diagnostic computer to be able to do that.

If you are thinking like C3PO in Star Wars, the answer is zero. If you definition are machines that do work for humans in an automatic manner, the answer is many million. If you question is aimed at the industrial robots used in assembly lines then many thousands.

Sorry, but to get the answer you need, you really need to ask a more specific question.

Personally I have a few Roomba's that help with keeping the floors clean, a dish washer and clothes washer and dryer that all could be considered 'robots' in many definitions. Even the automation of the thermostat in a house to keep us comfortable would have been considered a 'robot brain'. If you use a DVR like a TIVO, it does help keep the 'drudgery' of having to program your video recorder with a timer to allow you to watch your favorite programs later, ... in many ways I consider that a 'robot'.

I know that is not the answer you thought you were asking for, but it is more accurate than most I have read.

So far the first robot goes to the Chinese because they have the best documentation (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 catalogued that make it a tight race between the Iraq region, Egypt, Greece and India. A short history is in the link below.

Answer #1:

Not yet.

Answer #2:

They will never be able to. However advanced a robot may become, it can never have consciousness. And love has got something to do with consciousness.

Modern science has still not understood what is consciousness. Spiritual science clearly knows what is consciousness. Consciousness is the symptom of the soul. The soul is not an "abstract" concept. The existence of the soul is a fact. the soul is not physical, it is spiritual. Every individual living being is actually a soul encased in a material body made of flesh, bones, blood, tissues cells, organs, which are dead matter. Because of the presence of the soul, consciousness permeates the entire body.

The human or animal bodies are "living" because of the presence of the soul, which is actually the living being. The soul is the source of life for the material body. The soul is actually "alive" and is always alive; it is never born and it can never die. When an animal, plant or human being dies, it is because the soul departs from the material body.

The soul is a "life force": an infinitesimal non-material, spiritual entity. It cannot be directly perceived by the material senses (sight, sound, touch, taste, smell), and also cannot be detected using any material scientific instrument.

One should not blindly accept the existence of the soul. Certain logical arguments can help in understanding the soul. For example, suppose on the same day, at the same time, two babies take birth: One in a very poor family in Africa and is malnourished, and another in a rich aristocratic family in Europe. What is the reason for this? Isn't it logical to ask, "what had the babies done to deserve their fates?"? Saying that it is just luck, natural selection, or "by chance" is an easy escapist answer.

But logically speaking, if one uses common sense (No one is jailed or sentenced to death without any reason: At least a sane government doesn't do that), one can come to understand that, this is the result of the activities done by the two living entities in their previous lives. Thus re-incarnation is a very logical explanation, and for this to happen the existence of an entity such as the soul is required.

So only if you could somehow get a soul into a robot body, maybe it can love.

Answer #3:

According to Merriam-Webster (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/love), love is a strong, personal affection or concern for, or devotion to, a person or object (affection being an emotional or psychological attachment) - an emotion is an operational state of a collection of responses to stimuli.

Kenji was a Japanese robot that was programmed to love. Unfortunately, the device eventually instantly bonded with the first person (or object) it saw; it blocked one researcher from leaving its 'pen' as a result.

Technically, Kenji the robot reacted to external stimuli (the researcher and even its own teddy bear) and became attached to the stimuli. Hence, Kenji expressed love. Whether or not Kenji experienced love as animals experience it is best left to philosophers or Kenji if it were given the ability to vocalise its intentions.

Robotics is the study of robots

AI stands for Artificial Inteligence. This comes from the aparent ability of a robot to react to its surroundings and usually comes from programming which uses signals received from various types of sensors such as optical, audio etc to make a robot react in a pre-determined way.

Many places sell robots, There are many different types of robots and complexity. They can be found in toy stores and hobby shops.

There are many reasons why microphones and ears are alike. They are both tools that take in audio for example.

The robot's name is Sonny.

Apparently the guy who put the answer down before me had no idea what he was talking about, he just said eat food, so I'm going to put down a better answer. Asimo can run at 3.7 mph, or 6 kmh, he can shake hands, climb stairs, he CANNOT eat food (of course), he can deliver trays, he responds to his name, he responds to movements of your hands, his battery lasts for four hours, he can follow people around, he can talk, he answer questions with a yes or no by shaking his head, he can recognize faces, and many more things.

If you mean the word, it is often used derogatorily to describe a process or person that is mindless or controlled by someone else. If you mean the machine, almost anything. One definition of robot is "artificial agent" (a better definition is in the link below). Artificial just means someone made it, agent means it does something for someone (my favorite robot is the dishwasher - someone built it to wash dishes for me). These days most of the really popular robots are exploring places people can't go yet (Voyager left the solar system not too long ago, Spirit and Opportunity are still running around Mars) and doing things too dangerous for humans to do safely (like hunting for roadside bombs in war zones or searching the bottom of the ocean). I used to work with a parts placer in an electronics assembly plant, it took very small parts from reels and bins and placed them on circuit boards. Some car manufacturers use big industrial robots for welding and lifting cars and trucks. Nanotechnology is finally catching on, with motors and wheels the size of atoms. I have seen pictures of remote control robots for doing surgery from somewhere outside the hospital, like from another country. Anything you can build to do something for you is basically a robot.

A robot is a virtual or mechanical artificial agent. In practice, it is usually an electro-mechanical machine which is guided by computer or electronic programming, and is thus able to do tasks on its own. Another common characteristic is that by its appearance or movements, a robot often conveys a sense that it has intent or agency of its own.

If designed for something good, no. a robot is only as smart as its creator. the only way it could harm someone is human programing error or intention. ___________________ The robot's intelligence Makes a bad decision, yes. Listen to him, too^.
