Apa itu robot?


Walaupun kita biasa dengar perkataan robot, marilah kita berkenal-kenalan dengan benda yang bernama robot ni. Manalah tahu, jatuh hati pula nanti. Perkataan Robot pertama kali digunakan oleh Karel Capek di R.U.R (Rossum’s Universal Robots) pada tahun 1921. Ia berasal daripada perkataan Czech ‘Robota’, yang bermaksud buruh paksa. Tetapi definasi robot itu sangat meluas.
Saya letakkan beberapa definasi yang dikeluarkan oleh beberapa orang Barat dan juga seorang warganegara Malaysia. Saya letakkan definasi asal, maknanya saya tidak menterjemahkan definasi English mereka.
Alan Mackworth, Pengarah University of British Columbia Laboratory untuk Computational Intelligence dan Presiden American Association untuk Artificial Intelligence berkata:
“It’s a machine that can sense and act and react in the world and possibly involves some reasoning for performing these actions, and it does so autonomously. By that definition a thermostat would be a robot. Though it’s not ‘aware’ it has a goal, that awareness isn’t required.”
Rodney Brooks, Pengarah Massachusetts Institute of Technology computer science and artificial intelligence laboratory berkata:
“To me a robot is something that has some physical effect on the world, but it does it based on how it senses the world and how the world changes around it.”
Gregory Dudek, Pengarah Centre for Intelligent Machines di McGill University in Montreal, menetapkan 3 kriteria untuk robot.
“They have to have a way of making measurements of the world, they have to have a way of making decisions – in other words, something like a computer, you could call that thinking informally – and they have to have a way taking actions.”
Definasi daripada seorang warga Malaysia:
“Robot adalah kuli manusia. Mereka perlu melakukan kerja-kerja manusia seperti yang diarahkan. Di suruh anguk, anguk. Di suruh geleng, geleng”
Robot digunakan untuk membantu tugas manusia seperti tugas-tugas berat, berbahaya, pekerjaan yang berulang dan kotor. Robot moden ketika ini memiliki sistem sensor yang mengumpul maklumat dan menghantar ke otaknya. Otak robot sebenarnya adalah kebijaksanaan rekaan (Artificial Intelligence atau AI). AI membantu robot berfikir dan membuat keputusan berdasarkan maklumat-maklumat yang diperolehi.

Great example of modern technology

Technology is all round us and has effected our lives in many folds. Series of inventions have been done time to time and thus it becomes tough to keep on the latest and the greatest. Technology stands for the usage and knowledge of tools, techniques and crafts or is a system or method of organization. Technologies affect human significantly to adapt to their natural environments. Philosophical debates have occurred time to time in society on the concept of technology. The use of the term technology has significantly changed in last 200 years. Thus examples of modern technology can be traced at every step of human evolution.
Only the big inventions cannot be regarded as the outcome of modern technology rather, technology includes all tools, machines, weapons, utensils, clothing, housing and the instruments and transporting devices and the skills by which these have been produced. Thus technology can be used to refer to different techniques that are employed in different technological inventions. Hence examples of modern technology could be many such as medical technology, space technology and any high technology available to humanity in any field. Role of modern technology is manifold beginning from the simple electricity used in homes to the launch of aircrafts, home security systems and to playing computer games all are example of modern technology.
World has done many such inventions, from time to time the examples of which has impressed us leaving us to think what would be the next invention? We think that if this time they came up with such innovative idea what would be the next? Technology is all around us and with improving human intelligence this technology has come on a level, that some great inventions are being done everyday.
So what would be the examples of modern technology? Only some are mentioned as below:
Launch of MIDORI: MIDORI is another great technological invention of operating system and is soon to replace the much old WINDOWS that became a trademark of Microsoft Corporation. The software has been designed in a way that it can easily run on any hardware by a windows process.
Human Robot: This latest invention is simply great done by the MIT Media Lab. The robot holds exact human expressions like ’slanting its eyebrows in

anger’, or ‘raise them in surprise’. Not only this it can even communicate with people making certain facial expressions.
Unmanned Aircraft: Developed by the the DARPA this unmanned aircraft can amaze you with its high end potentiality to stay in air for five consecutive

years. The aircraft is so designed that it can fly over a single area making detail analysis for many years.
Computer Processor: 3 Dimensional computer process is another great examples of modern technology. This computer processor is based on 3-Dimensional circuits and is completely different from the 2 dimensional circuits that are presently used.
Not only these, but there are certain other great examples of modern technology the invention of which has made human life more convenient and easy.

About IT

IT is the area of managing technology and spans wide variety of areas that include computer software, information systems, computer hardware, programming languages but are not limited to things such as processes, , and data constructs. In short, anything that renders data, information or perceived knowledge in any visual format whatsoever, via any multimedia distribution mechanism, is considered part of the IT domain. IT provides businesses with four sets of core services to help execute the business strategy: business process automation, providing information, connecting with customers, and productivity tools.
IT professionals perform a variety of functions (IT Disciplines/Competencies) that ranges from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases. A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include data management, networking, engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as management and administration of entire systems. Information technology is starting to spread further than the conventional personal computer and network technologies, and more into integrations of other technologies such as the use of cell phones, televisions, automobiles, and more, which is increasing the demand for such jobs.
In the recent past, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology and the Association for Computing Machinery have collaborated to form accreditation and curriculum standards for degrees in Information Technology as a distinct field of study as compared to Computer Science and Information Systems today. SIGITE (Special Interest Group for IT Education) is the ACM working group for defining these standards. The Worldwide IT services revenue totaled $763 billion in 2009.

Computer Software

Computer software, or just software, is a collection of computer programs and related data that provide the instructions for telling a computer what to do and how to do it. In other words, software is a conceptual entity which is a set of computer programs, procedures, and associated documentation concerned with the operation of a data processing system. We can also say software refers to one or more computer programs and data held in the storage of the computer for some purposes. In other words software is a set of programs, procedures, algorithms and its documentation. Program software performs the function of the program it implements, either by directly providing instructions to the computer hardware or by serving as input to another piece of software. The term was coined to contrast to the old term hardware (meaning physical devices). In contrast to hardware, software is intangible, meaning it "cannot be touched". Software is also sometimes used in a more narrow sense, meaning application software only. Sometimes the term includes data that has not traditionally been associated with computers, such as film, tapes, and records.
