Is titan a real robot or just a costume?

Taunting Titan?According to the website of Channel4, there is a person inside Titan. However, the robot is also mechanically assisted. (See Related Link below.)

Titan the robot confuses the "Big Brother" viewers:

  • The Titan project does not use a human in a suit under that plate metal and technology. Many people believe there is a human-being under that suit. There is not enough room for a person to pilot the suit due to all of the hardware used to mechanize Titan. This robot is controlled by remote control, but the head is automatically moving. The head focuses on the closest object to it. The voice process is used also by a selection of comedy and music to interact with people.
  • No. Titan the robot is the stage name of an android costume. There is a person inside Titan; he is not a real robot, but an actor's costume playing a robot.
  • It probably is a man in a suit. Fair enough. But even so, it's still a pretty cool robot!! it's just being controlled inside - instead of outside.
  • If it is a robot, then it could never be a person.
  • I have to disagree with the answer. Look closely at it. You will notice that the chest piece is the front fairing and windshield from a motorcycle. The mirrored shield works as a one-way mirror. The person inside can look out, but nobody can see in. You will also notice that a lot of other parts on him are also pieces of motorcycle fairings. And yes, it is big enough to fit a person inside.
  • For sure there is a person in the titan suit. The company that produces the "android suit" says it is being controlled by a human being, but does not say where from. This is because they still want the titan to be viewed as a "robot" for entertaining purposes. Also after reviewing a video of titan you can see that there is a one way mirror on the front of titan that sits about eye level to must people. Also where the forearm sits on titan is where the arms of the operator fit into and is "masked" by some kind of black tubing from the shoulder to the forearm. I imagine the operator has control of the fingers with the movements of the body. The head may be controlled by someone else entirely. This can be done when the controller of the body walks directly up to someone (which he always does) and then the controller of the head does his stuff. Or maybe there is a small part of titan that is controlled by robotics and programs that would be the head. I doubt the company will reveal any of this and I wouldn't blame them.

What is the difference between human intelligence and artificial intelligence?

* Artificial intelligence (AI), is the use of computers to model the behavioral aspects of human reasoning and learning.

* (n.d.). Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia. Retrieved October 26, 2007, from Reference.com website:

http://www.reference.com/browse/columbia/artifInt AI is the art of making computers do smart things by using soft-computing instead of using traditional hard-computing. AI lets the computers learn things and ask questions -like why?- with the help of Fuzzy Inference Systems.

How much is titan the robot to hire?

Usually around £1500 (UK) a day with two 30min ish shows.

Why did Karel Capek make the first robot?

His play "R.U.R " (the first usage) was in 1921 so it would have been a little earlier than that as he was writing. {the Czech word he derived it from means drudgery, servitude).

How are robots made?

Robots are "made" much the same way any other machine is made.

First, decide what you want the robot to do.

Second, design the robot, including every bolt, wire, computer processor and sensor.

Third, evaluate the feasibility based on the materials required, labor required and costs.

Fourth, re-design to meet budget constraints and/or other requirements.

And ABSOLUTELY last, actually start putting it together as designed by the engineer(s).

What is a Mileyworld?

Is it possible to make a robot?

Yes.

In that people can become oblivious to the world around them when they begin to go through their daily routines in an automatic, unfeeling manner.

No.

People cannot become mechanical devices as shown in fiction. The complexity of the human body is far greater than the most intricate machine ever created.

Where is the position of capacitance of tube light?

The small cylindrical thing that You see (generally on a side of the choke coil) is the "starter " of the tube light. This is the capacitor used in tube light. And is used to provide a momentary voltage rise of nearly 400V to start up the tube light hence Starter.

Do I Robot and The Bicentennial Man contain the three laws of Robotics?

== == Yes, both contain the Three Laws of Robotics.

The Three Laws of Robotics:

1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

The above is directly quoted from Isaac Asimov's The Complete Robot.

How can robots helps us?

when you can look at this in two ways, the good side or the bad side. On the good side they could help us do dangerous things, in witch case, they could save life's and they can do things we don't want to do. On the bad side of things we could get lazy from not having to do any thing so we would also get fat and it would also pollute the world! i hope that helped :)

What do robots do today?

Today Robots are used to do tasks that are either too dirty, difficult, repetitive or dull for humansThey can work, play explore, move, sense, think and live.Robots are becoming smarter to do more and more things that we can't do or don't want to.

Was Frankenstein a robot?

Frankenstein wasn't a robot. He was a human, he was the scientist Albert Frankenstein who made the monster in the gothic novel, 'Frankenstein', the Modern Prometheus, by Mary Shelly.

Which writer established the three laws of robotics?

Isaac Asimov established the three laws of robotics:

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

He portrayed a world where Robots were far more than the computer-controlled machines that we currently use for routine tasks.

How to bild a robot?

This is one of the smallest and simplest autonomous ones I have found yet, thanks to FriPilot http://members.tripod.com/robomaniac_2001/id120.htm Otherwise, if you prefer robot kits, some hobby stores sell a few inexpensive ones that are sometimes configurable, like these guys http://www.kitsusa.net/phpstore/html/Robot-Kits---Non-Soldering-1-1.html Or, some of the less expensive construction kits like Lego or K-NEX or Construx or a few others have motors and gears in the kits.

When were the first major developments in technology?

At its simplest form, the definition to technology is the usage of knowledge, tools, and techniques in order to solve a problem, ergo, fire was the given answer. The first major technological advancement and to this day, one of the most important, is the wheel, invented during the 4th millennium BC.But the first technology was invented by Leonardo's descendent who invented a battery powered phone which couldn't do anything

What is the difference between analogue and digital system?

the main difference in analoge and digital system is analog is continues type of data and ditital is discreate type of data. e.g old galvanometer having needle is analog but new multimeter is digital in which voltage and current is shown in digits... analog is not much accurate..but digital is accurate...

What does Will Smith wear in I Robot?

Leather coat black, black jeans and shirt, leather Converse All-Stars also in black. Gun harness and a skull cap as well as prosthetic arm.

What was Isaac Asimov's 2nd Law of Robotics?

1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

2) A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

How do you make a toy robot?

This is one of the smallest and simplest autonomous ones I have found yet, thanks to FriPilot http://members.tripod.com/robomaniac_2001/id120.htm Otherwise, I have had pretty good luck with buying small remote control cars at the dollar store (or the stuff my nephews throw away) and taking them apart to reconfigure the motors into what I want, but that ends up with wires connecting the robot to the controller. Some of the people I work with have pieced together radio control cars and other parts to get radio control robots. If you prefer robot kits, some hobby stores sell a few inexpensive ones that are sometimes configurable. Otherwise some of the less expensive construction kits like Lego or K-NEX or Construx or a few others have motors and gears in the kits. If you have a larger budget, Lego Mindstorms, Bioloid and several others are more advanced kits that are programmable and autonomous. Some very important terms to keep in mind are: operator controlled - the robot has motors in it, maybe some electronics, it doesn't move until you push a button or lever on the controller. remotecontrol - usually connects the robot to the controller by a wire, you can usually keep the batteries in the controller to make the robot lighter. radiocontrol - the controller is a transmitter, the robot has a receiver on it, both need batteries or some other power suppy. autonomous - you set up the robot and hardwire it or program it to run sets of commands, when you set it down and turn it on it runs the commands. Usually requires programming knowledge (like BASIC, C language, Assembly, ForTran, COBOL or some others) and electronics knowledge (like soldering, power supply vs. load, Programmable Logic Arrays, Trans/ceivers, sensors, and many other options). But of course it is the most fun. sensory feedback - the robot can have switches, sensors or detectors on it that send information back to the controller (or its processor if it is autonomous). Might require a transmitter on the robot and a receiver in the controller (with some indicators to tell you what the robot is "sensing"). Anthropomorphism - "the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to non-human" things and critters. There is a ton of things that can go together to make a robot. If you learn how to fix toys, appliances and cars it definitely helps you figure out robots.

Are robots real?

The type you see in films? - No.

Robots are commonly used in manufacturing processes to assemble everything from mobile phone circuit boards to cars. They are used to carry out repetitive tasks, quickly and accurately.

Lester says:

Films those are robots, just some of them is, some the computer makes it, but at least computer are robots, too.

Who made the first robot?

The first robot was made in the year 2029. Its purpose was to be sent back in time to kill Sarah Connor and by doing so, alter the future as we know it as she would eventually bear a child named John Connor that would save the human race. However the robot given the name "Terminator" would eventually be crushed by a heavy piece of metal thus failing its mission and purpose for having been made in the first place.

What term refers to the process used to produce a good or service such as using a robotic device to assemble cars?

Automation refers to any manufacturing process that uses computer controlled manufacturing. In industry, robotics is often referred to as automated manufacturing.
