Text “Leave it for the robot”
1 Dirty, dangerous, and dull. These are three words you do not want to describe your job. While many jobs are a little dirty, dangerous, or dull, some are so much so that it is better not to have humans performing them at all. Would you want to be the first person to go into a building with a fire? What if a robot could assess and fix the situation? This is already happening all around the world. There are millions of robots at work today. Japan leads the way, followed by Singapore, South Korea, and Germany (see Figure 1).
2 The most common type of robotic device is a mechanical arm. This is often used in manufacturing. These arms move in many directions, and perform precise and repetitive tasks with ease. But robots have moved well beyond such simple and mundane tasks. A robot named
Demeter is an agricultural harvester that can move around a field of crops, planting and harvesting by using GPS, controllers, and sensors.
3 Some robots are programmed to do certain jobs, but others are remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). ROVs can have cameras, sensors, and other devices that provide hard-to-obtain information. The U.S. space agency NASA has used ROVs to explore the surface of the moon and Mars. ROVs are also used in underwater environments. They can perform maintenance on oil drilling platforms and explore the ocean floors. They are also used to gather information on geographical changes in volcanoes.
3 Ba'zi robotlar ma'lum ishlarni bajarish uchun dasturlashtirilgan, ammo boshqalari masofadan boshqariladigan transport vositalaridir (ROVlar). ROV-larda olish qiyin bo'lgan kameralar, datchiklar va boshqa qurilmalar bo'lishi mumkin ma `lumot. AQShning NASA kosmik agentligi Oy sirtini o'rganish uchun ROVlardan foydalangan
va Mars. ROVlar suv osti muhitida ham qo'llaniladi. Ular texnik xizmat ko'rsatishni amalga oshirishi mumkin
neft burg'ulash platformalari va okean tublarini o'rganish. Ular shuningdek ma'lumot to'plash uchun ishlatiladi
vulqonlardagi geografik o'zgarishlar.
4 What do regular people want from robots? As seen in Figure 2, people would like robots to perform tasks around the house. One home robot on the market now is Roomba, a turtleshaped robot that slowly vacuums its way around the room. It senses walls, and turns to avoid stairs and objects on the floor. A robot that washes the windows and does the dishes could make someone a small fortune! ;
5 Robots will play a more important role in the future. Surely they will continue to explore the ocean, analyze the surface of distant planets, and build our cars and computers. But what else? Will more robots drive our cars for us? Will they do our laundry? Will they do our gardening? Perhaps. When someone invents that window-cleaning robot, they will be rewarded by a grateful population.

"Uni robotga qoldiring" yozuvi
1 Nopok, xavfli va xira. Bu sizning ishingizni tasvirlashni istamaydigan uchta so'z. Esa
ko'p ish joylari biroz iflos, xavfli yoki xira, ba'zilari shunchalik ko'pki, bunga ega bo'lmaslik yaxshiroqdir
odamlar ularni umuman bajaradilar. Bilan birga binoga kirgan birinchi odam bo'lishni xohlaysizmi
olov? Agar robot vaziyatni baholay olsa va tuzatsa? Bu allaqachon atrofda sodir bo'lmoqda
dunyo. Bugungi kunda ishda millionlab robotlar mavjud. Bu borada Yaponiya yetakchilik qilmoqda, undan keyin
Singapur, Janubiy Koreya va Germaniya (1-rasmga qarang).
2 Eng keng tarqalgan robot turi - bu mexanik qo'l. Bu ko'pincha ishlatiladi
ishlab chiqarish. Ushbu qo'llar ko'p yo'nalishlarda harakatlanadi va aniq va takrorlanadigan vazifalarni bajaradi
osonlik bilan. Ammo robotlar bunday sodda va oddiy ishlardan ancha o'tib ketishdi. Nomlangan robot
Demeter - bu qishloq xo'jaligi kombaynidir, u ekin maydonlari bo'ylab harakatlanishi, ekish va
GPS, kontroller va datchiklar yordamida hosilni yig'ish.

4 Oddiy odamlar robotlardan nimani xohlashadi? 2-rasmda ko'rinib turganidek, odamlar robotlarni xohlashadi
uy atrofidagi vazifalarni bajarish. Hozir bozorda uy robotlaridan biri - bu turtadan shakllangan Roomba
robot xonani asta-sekin bo'shatadi. U devorlarni sezadi va zinadan qochish uchun buriladi
qavatda joylashgan narsalar. Derazalarni yuvadigan va idish-tovoq yuvadigan robot birovni a qila oladi
kichik boylik!
5 robotlar kelajakda muhimroq rol o'ynaydi. Albatta, ular kashfiyotni davom ettiradilar
okean, uzoq sayyoralar sirtini tahlil qiling va mashinalarimiz va kompyuterlarimizni yarating. Ammo yana nima?
Ko'proq robotlar biz uchun mashinalarimizni boshqaradimi? Ular bizning kirimizni yuvadimi? Ular bizning bog'dorchiligimizni qiladimi?
Ehtimol. Kimdir o'sha oynani tozalaydigan robotni ixtiro qilganida, ularga minnatdorchilik bilan mukofot beriladi
aholi.
