Robots For Kids


World Book Dictionary defines robot as "a machine made in imitation of a human being; a mechanical device that does routine work in response to commands. " I met my first robot in 1979 at the Texas Instruments plant in Austin, where it delivered mail. Despite early promises to the contrary, robots today are found not in the home, but primarily in factories. And although there are robots made out of Legos, there is no robot designed to pick up from the floor Legos. I, however, remain hopeful. Find out more at the following websites.

Design Your Own Robot

"Robots come in all shapes and sizes. But what does it take to design one? " You are about to learn. First, you'll be assigned a mission for your robot. Will it be to search a sunken shipfor gold? Or to explore the surface of Mars? Design your robot by choosing elements for six basic functions: sensing, movement, manipulation, energy, intelligence and looks. When finished, you'll view your robot and your design will be critiqued. This totally awesome exercise requires the free Shockwave plug-in. Get it now.

Get a Grip on Robotics

This exhibit explores the jointed-arm robot which looks similar to a certain part of your body. " Each joint can move direction gives the robot one degree of freedom. So, a robot arm with three degrees of freedom can move in three ways: up/down, left/right, forward/backward and. Although some robots have six, eight or even twelve degrees of freedom, six is enough for most basic tasks, and therefore most workingrobot arms have six degrees of freedom. The human arm, however, has seven. Find out which movement you have robotic arms that most do not.

Robots - The Future For NASA?

Robots - The Future For NASA? Impossible. That's what the 2009 Augustine committee reported about prospects for NASA's human exploration of space, at least for the next seven years. NASA's budget issues remain at the top of the list holding humans from space but the same future may not hold true for its robots . Robots - The Future For NASA? Robots - The Future For NASA? Robots - The Future For NASA? Robots - The Future For NASA? Two recent robot adventurers, rovers Spirit and Opportunity, lend credence to the idea that NASA's future may rapidly become reliant on robots to carry out missions in space. The Mars exploring rovers cost the agency more than 0 million apiece but have returned nearly six years of insightful data and imagery from the red planet's surface. Contrast this against the charge for merely launching human passengers into orbit via space shuttle, at roughly 0 million per launch, and the fiscal benefits become quickly a...
