Brief information about robotics. History of robotics Children under one year of age

The second law: The
robot must obey the orders of the person, unless these commands contradict the First Law.
The third law: The
robot must take care of its safety because it does not contradict the first and second laws.
Laws for robots were formulated by Isaak Asimov in his work. Three Laws on Robotics (Isaak Asimov) ".
Robotics is a practical science that deals with the development of automated technical systems.
The word "robotics" ("robotics" in English) was first used in print by Isaak Asimov in the 1941 science fiction story The Liar.
A robot (Czech robot, from a robot - forced labor or a robber - a slave) is an automatic device based on the principle of a living organism.
By acting on a predetermined program and receiving information about the outside world through sensors (analogs of sensations of living organisms), the robot performs production and other operations independently, usually by humans (or animals). In this case, the robot can also communicate with the operator (receive commands from it) and move autonomously.
"Modern robots, based on the latest advances in science and technology, are used in all areas of human activity. People have received a loyal helper who is able not only to do work that is dangerous to human life, but also to free humanity from monotonous operations. IM Makarov, Yu I. Topcheev. "Robotics: history and prospects"
The look and design of modern robots can be very diverse. At present, various robots are widely used in industrial production, their appearance (for technical and economic reasons) is far from "human".
History
Information about the first practical application of modern robots - automatically controlled mechanical human prototypes dates back to the Hellenistic period.
Then, four golden female figures were mounted on a lighthouse built on the island of Faros. During the day they burned in the sunlight, and at night they were brightly lit, so they were always clearly visible from a distance. These statues periodically rotated and knocked down the tubes; at night they sounded the trumpet, warning the sailors of their proximity to the shore.
Prototypes of robots were also mechanical figures created by the Arab scientist and inventor Al-Jazari (1136-1206). So he created a boat with four mechanical musicians playing the harp, the harp, and the flute.

Pictures of Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo da Vinci painted a picture of a humanoid robot in 1495. Leonardo's writings, found in the 1950s, contained detailed images of a mechanical knight capable of sitting, spreading his arms, shaking his head, and opening a visor. The design is probably based on anatomical studies recorded in a Vitruvian man. It is unknown whether Leonardo wanted to build a robot.
From the beginning of the 18th century, cars with “intelligence signs” began to be reported in the press, but in most cases it turned out to be a fraud. Inside the mechanisms are hidden living people or trained animals.
In 1738, the French mechanic and inventor Jacques de Vaucanson created the first working humanoid device (android) to play the flute. He also made mechanical ducks, which they say can "defecate" by pinching food.
