  1. Examples of Robots from Many Areas What are robots good for?

  2. POLICE ROBOT • An experimental robot picks up a simulated pipe bomb during a demonstration for the media at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M., Tuesday, July 3, 2001. • New technology developed at Sandia National Laboratories is making bomb disposal easier and safer for police bomb squads. • Phil Bennett, project leader at Sandia, says the arm joints of the new robot are more coordinated than the old-line robots. • (AP Photo/Jake Schoellkopf)

  3. Example: NOMAD ROBOT • This undated photo from Carnegie Mellon Uniuversity shows the Nomad robot during its solo drive on an icy Antartic plain. • The robot, a product of the university's Robotics Institute, began testing its wheels in January after it was taken by helicopter to a harsh region known as Elephant Moraine where it was left to inspect rocks and look for meteorites. • (AP Photo/Carnegie Mellon U.)

  4. What are robots good for? • Gofer robots Carnegie Mellon’s Nomad

  5. ROBOTIC SURGERY • Dr. William Franckle watches a video monitor as he assists in a gall bladder operation using a robotic surgery machine called da Vinci Surgical System, left, at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, N.J., Thursday, Feb. 8, 2001. • Franckle assited Dr. Andrew Boyarsky who was manipulating small robotic instruments, one is seen on monitor, while looking at a three-dimensional image of the patient's abdomen from a work station about 10 feet away from the patient.

  6. HURRICANE SEASON • ADVANCE FOR WEEKEND EDITIONS OF MAY 19-20 -- An Aerosonde aircraft is seen from its launch vehicle in this 2000 file photo taken in Australia. Aerosonde Ltd., an Australian company, is seeking permission to fly pilotless robotic planes into the 2001 hurricane storms. • The Aerosonde launches from a car's roof rack and can carry a 4 1/2-pound payload of high-tech measuring equipment. Maurice Gonella, Aerosonde's principal engineer, says the $100,000 drones can be put on autopilot and will constantly relay information. • They also take photographs as they go.

  7. ROBOT LAWN MOWER • Scott Jantz, an engineering student at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Fla., watches a robot lawn mower Wednesday, Aug. 6, 1997, that cuts grass by itself while avoiding obstacles such as trees, toys and even children and pets. • Dubbed the LawnNibbler, the mower was designed and built by Kevin Hakala for his engineering master's thesis. • The battery-powered mower, developed at UF's Machine Intelligence Laboratory, uses buried radio wires, sonar and infrared emitters and detectors to find its way without human assistance. • (AP Photo/University of Florida)

  8. SANDIA ROBOTICS Sandia National Laboratories researcher Tom Weber holds a tiny robot named MARV, for Mobile Autonomous Wheeled Vehicle, on Oct. 28, 1996 in Albuquerque, N.M. Weber says MARV is a learning tool to begin to understand the problems of building inexpensive little robots for use in military applications.(AP Photo/Jake Schoellkopf)

  9. Robots in the World Installations Stock

  10. Robots in the Real World A robot drills 550 holes in the vertical tail fins of an F-16 fighter in 3 hours in General Dynamics. It used to take 24 worker hours to do the job manually. • Welding • Painting • Assembly • Laboratory • Manufacturers By 1985, there were 180,000 robots on production lines in the world with the US, France and Japan accounting for 80% of them

  11. Industrial Manipulators Puma 500 RRC Dexterous Manipulator

  12. Industrial Manipulators Adept One XL Adept Six 300

  13. Cartesian robot

  14. BATTLEBOTS CHAMPIONSHIP • Robot "T-Minus", right, built by Reason Bradley of Sausalito, Calif., flips opponent robot "Halo", built by Brian Scearce of Fremont, Calif., Thursday, May 24, 2001, during the preliminary elimination rounds of the Battlebots Robot Combat Championship on Treasure Island, in San Francisco. • Battlebots is the sport of remote controlled robotic combat, where a face-off of creations made by Hollywood special effects artists, rocket scientists, software designers, and garage tinkerers meet in the boxing arena. • The championships will run through the Memorial Day weekend, and end on Monday, May 28.
