domestic robots


Domestic robots have become a big business for companies. I will be talking about Jibo, NAO and Hovis.

1: Jibo is a small stationary robot that can see, help , learn relate and both speak and listen. Jibo can read stories to children and help contact people from across the world. It is also connectable to the internet allowing it to search for things for you.

2: NAO is a humanoid robot capable of walking, recognizing you and being programmed. He is also connectable to wifi and can learn from you. NAO will be able to do the majority of tasks you tell him to do.

3: Hovis is a robot that you create yourself and programme how you wish. There are lots of ways to customize for example you can make it have multiple sensors.

python



Robots, are they a problem.

Robots are useful because they can

  • Work in places dangerous to people
  • They can help soldiers deliver messages 
  • They take care of bombs 
  • Soon they may also be able to fight along side is
  • Mars is inhabited solely by robots
These robots can also be dangerous in some ways such as 
  • Improved to fight better than us 
  • Malfunctions are possible 
  • It would be hard to programme them to fight only a particular side in war
  • Viruses could be come common 
I think people shouldn't be concerned about robots because people can programme it easily and prevent any major problems. This will make sure that they will only be as smart as the coders.

Finally I believe that the statement "an ai can only be as smart as the programmer is true because there is no way for them to know something we do not know. People say that they will be able to learn in the near future and to that I say what they can learn we can learn faster.

SLC Logo

I have used this logo because it was the one that stood out the most. I created it by first drawing and then drawing it on Inkscape. I was only able to complete one of the logos but I am very happy with the result.
