58. Spiritual Robots?

59. What did we learn? Many types of robots exist. Progress of technology allows now to build an Intelligent Robot with Perception and Manipulation under $1000. There are several kits for high school robotics. Robotics allows to explain ideas of control, software, sensors, motors and other effectors, image processing, pattern recognition, machine learning and Artificial Intelligence Small robot that you can build in a classroom can explain all important principles at a fraction of cost You are no longer restricted to robotic arms, kits allow to build any type of robot.

60. Possible Programming Projects Select your favourite robot: Space, military, medical, etc Create a model of your robot: use your knowledge of trigonometry to describe kinematics of your robot Find on WWW a graphics package, you can use AUTO-CAD with Lisp Visualize the movements of your robot using the graphic package Do the tele-remote interface to your robot. When you use the mouse or joystick or keyboard, the robot executes respective commands
