Harry Asada 1Chapter 1IntroductionMany definitions have been suggested for what we call a robot. The word may conjure up various levels of technological sophistication, ranging from a simple material handling device to a humanoid. The image of robots varies widely with researchers, engineers, and robot manufacturers. However, it is widely accepted that today’s robots used in industries originated in the invention of a programmed material handling device by George C. Devol. In 1954, Devol filed a U.S. patent for a new machine for part transfer, and he claimed the basic concept of teach-in/playback to control the device. This scheme is now extensively used in most of today's industrial robots.1.1 Era of Industrial RobotsDevol's industrial robots have their origins in two preceding technologies: numerical control for machine tools, and remote manipulation. Numerical control is a scheme to generate control actions based on stored data. Stored data may include coordinate data of points to which the machine is to be moved, clock signals to start and stop operations, and logical statements for branching control sequences. The whole sequence of operations and its variations are prescribed and stored in a form of memory, so that different tasks can be performed without requiring major hardware changes. Modern manufacturing systems must produce a variety of products in small batches, rather than a large number of the same products for an extended period of time, and frequent changes of product models and production schedules require flexibility in the manufacturing system. The transfer line approach, which is most effective for mass production, is not appropriate when such flexibility is needed (Figure 1-1). When a major product change is required, a special-purpose production line becomes useless and often ends up being abandoned, despite the large capital investment it originally involved. Flexible automation has been a centralFigure 1-1 General trend of manufacturing cost vs. batch sizeIntroduction to Robotics, H. Harry Asada 2 issue in manufacturing innovation for a few decades, and numerical control has played a central role in increasing system flexibility. Contemporary industrial robots are programmable machines that can perform different operations by simply modifying stored data, a feature that has evolved from the application of numerical control.Another origin of today's industrial robots can be found in remote manipulators. A remote manipulator is a device that performs a task at a distance. It can be used in environments that human workers cannot easily or safely access, e.g. for handling radio-active materials, or in some deep sea and space applications. The first master-slave manipulator system was developed by 1948. The concept involves an electrically powered mechanical arm installed at the operation site, and a control joystick of geometry similar to that of the mechanical arm (Figure 1-2). The joystick has position transducers at individual joints that measure the motion of the human operator as he moves the tip of the joystick. Thus the operator's motion is transformed into electrical signals, which are transmitted to the mechanical arm and cause the same motion as the one that the human operator performed. The joystick that the operator handles is called the master manipulator, while the mechanical arm is called the slave manipulator, since its motion is ideally the replica of the operator's commanded motion. A master-slave manipulator has typically six degrees of freedom to allow the gripper to locate an object at an arbitrary position and orientation. Most joints are revolute, and the whole mechanical construction is similar to that of the human arm. This analogy with the human arm results from the need of replicating human motions. Further, this structure allows dexterous motions in a wide range of workspaces, which is desirable for operations in modern manufacturing systems.and remote manipulation. Thus a widely accepted definition of today’s industrial robot is that of a numerically controlled manipulator, where the human operator and the master manipulator in the figure are replaced by a numerical controller.Figure removed for copyright reasons.See Figure 1-4 in Asada and Slotine, 1986.Figure 1-3 White body assembly lines using spot welding robots1.2 Creation of RoboticsThe merge of numerical control and remote manipulation created a new field of engineering, and with it a number of scientific issues in design and control which are substantially different from those of the original technologies have emerged.Robots are required to have much higher mobility and dexterity than traditional machine tools. They must be able to work in a large reachable range, access crowded places, handle a variety of workpieces, and perform flexible tasks. The high mobility and dexterity requirements result in the unique mechanical structure of robots,which parallels the human arm structure. This structure, however, significantly departs from traditional machine design.A robot mechanical structure is basically composed of cantilevered beams, forming a sequence of arm links connected by hinged joints. Such a structure has inherently poor mechanical stiffness and accuracy, hence is not appropriate for the heavy-duty, high-precision applications required of machine tools. Further, it also implies a serial sequence of servoed joints, whose errors accumulate along the linkage. In order to exploit the high mobility and dexterity uniquely featured by the serial linkage, these difficulties must be overcome by advanced design and control techniques.The serial linkage geometry of manipulator arms is described by complex nonlinear equations. Effective analytical tools are necessary to understand the geometric and kinematic behavior of the manipulator, globally referred to as the manipulator kinematics. This represents an important and unique area of robotics research, since research in kinematics and design has traditionally focused upon single-input mechanisms with single actuators moving at constant speeds, while robots are multi-input spatial mechanisms which require more sophisticated analytical tools.The dynamic behavior of robot manipulators is also complex, since the dynamics of multi-input spatial linkages are highly coupled and nonlinear. The motion of each joint is significantly affected by the motions of all the other joints. The inertial load imposed at each joint varies widely depending on the configuration of the manipulator arm. Coriolis and centrifugal effects are prominent when the manipulator arm moves at high speeds. The kinematic and dynamic complexities create unique control problems that are not adequately handled by standard linear control techniques, and thus make effective control system design a critical issue in robotics.Figure removed for copyright reasons.See Figure 1-4 Adept Direct-Drive robotFinally, robots are required to interact much more heavily with peripheral devices than traditional numerically-controlled machine tools. Machine tools are essentially self-contained systems that handle workpieces in well-defined locations. By contrast, the environment in which robots are used is often poorly structured, and effective means must be developed to identify the locations of the workpieces as well as to communicate to peripheral devices and other machines in a coordinated fashion. Robots are also critically different from master-slave manipulators, in that they are autonomous systems. Master-slave manipulators are essentially manually controlledFigure 1-5 Dexterous fingersPhoto removed for copyright reasons.See /viewdetails/item/313/size/300/3/'Also published Menzel, Peter, and Faith D’Aluisio. Robo Sapiens: Evolution of a New Species . Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2001, p. 176.'Figure 1-6 Medical robots for minimally invasive surgerysystems, where the human operator takes the decisions and applies control actions. The operator interprets a given task, finds an appropriate strategy to accomplish the task, and plans theprocedure of operations. He/she devises an effective way of achieving the goal on the basis of his/her experience and knowledge about the task. His/her decisions are then transferred to the slave manipulator through the joystick. The resultant motion of the slave manipulator ismonitored by the operator, and necessary adjustments or modifications of control actions are provided when the resultant motion is not adequate, or when unexpected events occur during the operation. The human operator is, therefore, an essential part of the control loop. When the operator is eliminated from the control system, all the planning and control commands must be generated by the machine itself. The detailed procedure of operations must be set up in advance, Photo removed for copyright reasons.Robot hand holding lightbulb - http://www.dlr.de/rm/en/Desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-426/569_read-76/_____________________________________________________________and each step of motion command must be generated and coded in an appropriate form so that the robot can interpret it and execute it accurately. Effective means to store the commands and manage the data file are also needed . Thus, programming and command generation are critical issues in robotics. In addition, the robot must be able to fully monitor its own motion. In order to adapt to disturbances and unpredictable changes in the work environment, the robot needs a variety of sensors, so as to obtain information both about the environment (using external sensors, such as cameras or touch sensors) and about itself (using internal sensors, such as joint encoders or joint torque sensors). Effective sensor-based strategies that incorporate this information require advanced control algorithms. But they also imply a detailed understanding of the task.1.3. Manipulation and Dexterityof robots to ever more advanced tasks. Robots arehuman assistance or intervention. To extend theapplications and abilities of robots, it becomesimportant to develop a sound understanding of thetasks themselves.develop effective control algorithms, we need toprecisely understand how a given task should beaccomplished and what sort of motions the robotoperation, for example, we need to know how toit withway. In a grinding operation, the robot mustposition the grinding wheel whileaccommodating the contact force. We need toanalyze the grinding process itself in order togenerate appropriate force and motioncommands.A detailed understanding of the underlying principles and "know-how" involved in the task must be developed in order to use industrial robots effectively, while there is no such need for making control strategies explicit when the assembly and grinding operations are performed by a human worker. Human beings perform sophisticated manipulation tasks without being aware of the control principles involved. We have trained ourselves to be capable of skilled jobs, but in general we do not know what the acquired skills are exactly about. A sound and explicit understanding of manipulation operations, however, is essential for the long-term progress of robotics. This scientific aspect of manipulation has never been studied systematically before, and represents an emerging and important part of robotics research.1.4 Locomotion and NavigationRobotics has found a number of important application areas in broad fields beyond manufacturing automation. These range from space and under-water exploration, hazardous waste disposal, and environment monitoring to robotic surgery, rehabilitation, home robotics, and entertainment. Many of these applications entail some locomotive functionality so that the robot can freely move around in an unstructured environment. Most industrial robots sit on a manufacturing floor and perform tasks in a structured environment. In contrast, those robots for non-manufacturing applications must be able to move around on their own. See Figure 1-8. Locomotion and navigation are increasingly important, as robots find challenging applications in the field. This opened up new research and development areas in robotics. Novel mechanisms are needed to allow robots to move through crowded areas, rough terrain, narrow channels, and even staircases. Various types of legged robots have been studied, since, unlike standard wheels, legs can negotiate with uneven floors and rough terrain. Among others, biped robots have been studied most extensively, resulting in the development of humanoids, as shown in Figure 1-9. Combining leg mechanisms with wheels has accomplished superior performance in both flexibility and efficiency. The Mars Rover prototype shown below has a rocker-buggy mechanism combined with advanced wheel drives in order to adapt itself to diverse terrain conditions. See Figure 1-10.Photo removed for copyright reasons.Figure 1-8 Automatically guided vehicle for meal delivery in hospitalsPhoto removed for copyright reasons.Figure 1-9 Honda’s P3 humanoid robotNavigation is another critical functionality needed for mobile robots, in particular, for unstructured environment. Those robots are equipped with range sensors and vision system, and are capable of interpreting the data to locate themselves. Often the robot has a map of the environment, and uses it for estimating the location. Furthermore, based on the real-time data obtained in the field, the robot is capable of updating and augmenting the map, which is incomplete and uncertain in unstructured environment. As depicted in Figure 1-10, location estimation and map building are simultaneously executed in the advanced navigation system. Such Simultaneous Location and MApping (SLAM) is exactly what we human do in our daily life, and is an important functionality of intelligent robots.The goal of robotics is thus two-fold: to extend our understanding about manipulation, locomotion,and other robotic behaviors and to develop engineering methodologies to actually perform desired tasks. The goal of this book is to provide entry-level readers and experienced engineers with fundamentals of understanding robotic tasks and intelligent behaviors as well as with enabling technologies needed for building and controlling robotic systems.Figure 1-10 JPL’s planetary exploration robot: an early version of the Mars Rover。

机器人学三定律
20世纪
1920年捷克斯洛伐克作家卡雷尔·恰佩克在他的科幻小说《罗萨姆的机器人万能公司》中，根据Robota(捷 克文，原意为“劳役、苦工”)和Robotnik(波兰文，原意为“工人”)，创造出“机器人”这个词。
1939年美国纽约世博会上展出了西屋电气公司制造的家用机器人Elektro。它由电缆控制，可以行走，会说 77个字，甚至可以抽烟，不过离真正干家务活还差得远。但它让人们对家用机器人的憧憬变得更加具体。
而三大法则之间的互相约束，为后世的创作有一定的指导意义。
LawⅠ:A ROBOT MAY NOT INJURE A HUMAN BEING OR, THROUGH INACTION, ALLOW A HUMAN BEING TO COME TO HARM.
第一定律：机器人不得伤害人类个体，或者目睹人类个体将遭受危险而袖手不管
法则提出
法则提出
阿西莫夫的《我，机器人》，在一九五〇年末由格诺姆出版社出版。虽说这本书是“旧稿子”，但是这些短 篇是在十年间零零散散发表的，这次集中出版，使读者第一次领略阿西莫夫机器人科幻小说的魅力。阿西莫夫为 这本书新写了《引言》，而《引言》的小标题就是《机器人学的三大法则》，把“机器人学三大法则”放在了最 突出、最醒目的地位
意义
为什么后来要定出这条“零定律”呢？打个比方，为了维持国家或者说世界的整体秩序，我们制定法律，必 须要执行一些人的死刑。这种情况下，机器人该不该阻止死刑的执行呢？显然是不允许的，因为这样就破坏了我 们维持的秩序，也就是伤害了人类的整体利益。 “第零定律”的重要性在于地位凌驾其它三大定律，如若有 个机器人为保护人类整体（维护第零定律），必须杀害一个人或一群人（抵触第一定律），机器人的正子程式为 了人类整体着想就会同意谋杀罪行。
人形机器人第三节课——【人型机器人 精品课件】
人形机器人第三节课一，科普知识（30分钟）马达的发展历史直流电机的产生与形成1820年丹麦物理学家奥斯特(Hans Christian Oersted, 1777-1851)发现了电流磁效应:将导线的一端和伽伐尼电池正极连接，导线沿南北方向平行地放在小磁针上方，当导线另一端连接到负极时，磁针立即指向东西方向。
把玻璃板、木片、石块等非磁性物体插在导线和磁极之间，甚至把小磁针浸在盛水的铜盒子里，磁针照样偏转随后安培通过总结电流在磁场中所受机械力的情况建立了安培定律。
1821年9月法拉第发现通电的导线能绕永久磁铁旋转以及磁体绕载流导体的运动，第一次实现了电磁运动向机械运动的转换，从而建立了电动机的实验室模型，被认为是世界上第一台电机，其原理如图1所示，在一个盘子内注入水银，盘子中央固定一个永磁体，盘子上方悬挂一根导线，导线的一端可在水银中移动，另一端跟电池的一端连接在一起，电池的另一端跟盘子连在一起，构称导电回路，载流导线在磁场中受力运动。
1822年，法国的阿拉戈盖吕萨克发明电磁铁，即用电流通过绕1线的方法使其中铁块磁化。
1825年，斯特企(W.sturgeon)用16圈导线制成了第一块电磁铁。
1829年，美因电学家亨利对斯特金电磁铁装置进行了一些革新，绝缘导线代替裸铜导线，因此不必担心被铜导线过分靠近而短路。
由于导线有了绝缘层，就可以将它们一圈圈地紧紧地绕在一起，由于线圈越密集，产生的磁场就越强，这样就大大提高了把电能转化为磁能的能力。
到了1831年，亨利试制出了一块更新的电磁铁，虽然它的体积并不大，但它能吸起1吨重的铁块。
1826年德因G.S欧姐提出电路实验定律一一欧姐定律。
1831年，法拉第发现了电磁感应现象之后不久，他又利用电磁感应发明了世界上第一台真正意义上的电机-法拉第圆盘发电机。
亨利的电动机的重要意义在于这是第一次展示了由磁极排斥和吸引产生的连续运动，是电磁铁在电动机中的真正应用1832年，斯特金发明了换向器，据此对亨利的振荡电动机进行了改进，并制作了世界上第一台能产生连续运动的旋转电动机。
