WHAT IS INTELLIGENCE?

Ability to learn facts &

skills & apply them to solve
problems in the real world
WHAT IS A ROBOT?

From the Czech word “robota”

meaning forced labour
A computer-controlled machine
that can interact with its
environment through input sensors
& moving parts
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROBOTS
Industrial robots
Domestic robots – Roomba
Entertainment robots – Aibo, Doc Beardsley,
Robosapien
Humanoid robots – Cog, Kismet
Others – Millitary robots, space exploration
robots, service robots (health care), etc.
WHAT IS AN INTELLIGENT
ROBOT?

A machine able to extract information from

its environment and use knowledge about its
world to move and act safely in a meaningful
and purposeful manner
HOW PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED?
Knowledge + use & apply the knowledge =
problem solving

Knowledge-
facts, ideas that have been acquired through
experience, investigations or observations
HOW TO MAKE A MACHINE INTELLIGENT?
Write code to use and
Represent the Intelligent
Knowledge + apply the knowledge = System

Get the Learn and From past

Knowledge Understand examples/solved
problems etc.

Rule-based Reasoning
Neural Networks
Case-based Reasoning
Fuzzy Systems
Genetic Algorithms
Model-based Reasoning
First model came out in 2000… the intelligent
version was released in 2002
A Chess playing robot
Looks like a mass of blocks…
exciting feature is that it can
reassemble itself if u kick it into
pieces!
• Adam (April, 2009)

• a robot developed by Welsh Aberystwyth

University researchers which combines AI,
robotics and automation to independently
conduct and analyze biological laboratory
research.

• can not only think up new scientific ideas, but

experimentally test them and decide whether
they're true

• Adam makes up its own mind what to do.

• It decides what experiments to do, what to test
