Recommended: robots and physics

Robotics has been the ultimate form of man’s inspiration from nature as he tries to copy all of his own attributes and implement them on a “non-living” object. Most of its underlying principles, dictated by Physics and Mathematics, culminated in due course of my baccalaureate degree to be encapsulated in a subject called Control Systems. The past few years have given me the chance to explore several areas of Robotics in my projects, ranging from industrial solutions to mathematical issues and this has shaped my desire to pursue graduate studies in this field. What started initially as a favourite hobby, over time turned into a passion and my zest to be a professional in this field was fuelled ever since. I began by designing circuits to make an autonomous robot by joining the Robotics and Machine Intelligence Club (RMI). I learnt that Robotics requires patience and dedication as it often involves debugging leading into sleepless nights in a row. As should be emphasized, apart from thinking positively at the face of failure, the situation demanded and brought out my team skills. Eventually all this hard-work paid off, we won prizes in quite a few events such as “Micromouse” and “Wall- Climber”. To supplement my knowledge in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics, I have taken Natural Language Processing as an elective. Apart from learning concepts, I also shared all that I learnt, by means of workshops. I believe that teaching gives us a great insight into the minute details of a subject. In the summer of 2008, after my second year, that I got a much sought-after summer internship at the ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation, Bangalore) under Ms.Sonal Navle, Scientist/Engineer, in the Control Electronics Division. I was ... ... middle of paper ... ...e last quarter by self-study. In becoming a part of this prestigious scholarship’s recipients, I know that I'll get a highly competitive and intellectually stimulating atmosphere along with the other factors which will help fulfil the goal of a holistic education, complementing my innate desire to learn. These have been the primary factors that motivated me to aim for the prestigious Erasmus Mundus Master’s Program for Advanced Robotics(EMARO). With my background of a balanced undergraduate education with enriching experiences in the industry and the academia, given an opportunity, I am confident that I can contribute significantly to the ongoing research activities on Robotics in the universities I am given. I hope that my application will be considered favorably in this light and am looking forward to a fruitful result with regard to the Erasmus Mundus Grant.

  • My First Robotics

    When people hear the term “FIRST Robotics” or hear anything related to robotics, they automatically assume that it has something to do with robots destroying each other or nerds sitting in the corner eating pizza and building small robots; I used to be one of those people who thought that before joining FIRST Robotics. In all honesty, I was very reluctant on becoming a part of FIRST Robotics in the first place because I did not know if I would fit in or even enjoy it for that matter. However, thanks to two special people I gave FIRST Robotics a shot, and I’m thankful that I did because I wouldn’t be the person that I am today. FIRST Robotics has greatly impacted my high school experience by teaching me life skills that I can’t learn in the classroom, forming new bonds and

  • Robots for People: Do We Really Need Them?

    1493 Words  | 3 Pages

    Scientific progress makes huge milestones toward developing new advanced technologies which are more and more present in human lives. Today robots replace people in many spheres such as health care, security and military, industry, education, entertainment and science. Role of robots becomes more significant because they are able to do the job which people are not able to perform well. Sometimes people are too lazy to do some routine work, due to such situation those tasks could be delegated to machines. People’s life become more technology based what makes demand for efficient robots larger. Engineers say that today robots look like machines, but in near future robots will have more human appearance, today they do some simple job, but in near future much more complicated tasks would be trusted to them. History of robotics goes far to the history when the ancient Greeks describes first devices that people were projected to fly to the sky like birds. In fact, heart of any robot is some program that direct the device and control it actions. Robot cannot perform the tasks that was not programmed in it and this if the factor what makes it quite limited in its actions. Current studies in robotics are aimed to remove those disadvantages and make robots more functional and universal through development of artificial intelligence that can operate independently. Curiosity of world community to robotics increase every day what make all the research and inventions in robotics more demanded. History of robots, resent achievement and future perspectives of robotics have to be studies and researched to understand what machines can give to humanity and what pros and cons exist in the r...

  • Personal Narrative: My First Robotics

    688 Words  | 2 Pages

    When I first started robotics, I did not fully understand what an engineer was, and I had some cloudy vision of becoming a police detective in the distant future. However, the more involved I became in the robotics program, the more interested I grew in the whole concept. Being presented with a problem and limitations, such as time constraints, budget constraints, and size and weight constraints, and then have to come up with a feasible design that fits the limitations is an amazing learning experience. However, the process did not end at coming up with a design; in fact, that was just the beginning of a very long road. After the initial design was decided on, us designers spent hours coming up with CAD (computer aided design) mockups, dimensioning every single plane and meticulously going over every centimeter of the virtual version of our robot. With a solid vision in place, construction began and as we learned more about the problem and our own limitations, we were forced to perform small alterations to our design; making it dynamic to fit the ever changing

    The approach to artificial intelligence should be proceeded with caution. Throughout recent years and even decades before, it has been a technological dream to produce artificial intelligence. From movies, pop culture, and recent technological advancements, there is an obsession with robotics and their ability to perform actions that require human intelligence. Artificial intelligence has become a real and approachable realization today, but should be approached with care and diligence. Humans can create advanced artificial intelligence but should not because of the harm they may cause, the monumental advancement needed in the technology, and that its harm outweighs its benefits.

    Shyam Sankar, named by CNN as one of the world’s top ten leading speakers, says the key to AI evolvement is the improvement of human-computer symbiosis. Sankar believes humans should be more heavily relied upon in AI and technological evolvement. Sankar’s theory is just one of the many that will encompass the future innovations of AI. The next phase and future of AI is that scientists now want to utilize both human and machine strengths to create a super intelligent thing. From what history has taught us, the unimaginable is possible with determination. Just over fifty years ago, AI was implemented through robots completing a series of demands. Then it progressed to the point that AI can be integrated into society, seen through interactive interfaces like Google Maps or the Siri App. Today, humans have taught machines to effectively take on human jobs, and tasks that have created a more efficient world. The future of AI is up to the creativity and innovation of current society’s scientists, leaders, thinkers, professors, students and
