TYPE ROBOT

Several types of robots:
1. Robotic Car (Moves) that can be migrated.
Robot Vehicle or Mobile Robot is a robot which is typical construction is to have a wheel actuator to move the whole body of the robot, so the robot is able to make the shift position from one point to another. The robot car is very popular for people who start studying robots. This is because making a car robot does not require heavy physical labor. To be able to make a mobile robot minimum required knowledge of microcontrollers and sensors electro.

2. Robotic Manipulator (hand)
This robot has only complains one hand that functions like the human hand to hold or move items, this is an example of robot welding robots in the car industry, electronics etc. robots assemble.
3. Humanoid Robots, robots that resemble humans who have the ability, either function or how to act, this is an example of a robot developed by Honda Ashimo.
4. Legged Robot
This robot has legs like an animal or a human being, capable of stepping, such as insect robot, robotic crab etc..
5. Flying Robot (Robot Fly), which is capable of flying robots, the robot resembles a model aircraft that is specially programmed to monitor the situation on the ground from above, and also to continue the communication.
6. Under Water Robot (Robot in water), the robot is used to monitor underwater underwater conditions and also to pick up something at the bottom of the sea.

The sensor includes an important component in a robot . With the sensor makes robots are made ​​as if to control himself , without wires , even without being controlled remotely by humans . Well , the following types of sensors and brief explanation . :

a. Internal sensors , ie sensors mounted on the body of the robot .
Internal sensors required to observe the position , velocity , and acceleration of various mechanical connections on the robot , and is part of the

b . External sensor , ie a sensor which is mounted outside the body of the robot .
External sensor is needed for two reasons , namely :

1 ) For security and
2 ) For a guide .

The definition of security "to include security robots , namely protection against the damage of the robot itself , as well as security for the equipment , components , and the environment in which the robot used . Here are two simple examples to illustrate the above case .

The first example : suppose a new robot that moves keposisinya and he met an obstacle , which can be another machine for example . If the robot does not have a sensor that can detect the obstacle , either before or after contact , then the result will be damage .

A second example: a sensor for security problems are illustrated by the robot in taking an egg. When mounted on the robot mechanical pencengkram (gripper), the sensors must be able to measure how much force is appropriate to take the eggs. Power that is too large will cause the rupture of the egg, whereas if too little egg will fall apart.

Now how the sensors to guide or guides?. The Categories are very broad, but the following example will give consideration.

The first example: component located above the conveyor belt arrives in front of the robot is programmed to spray him. What would happen if a component is missing or in the wrong position?. The robot would have to have a sensor that can detect the presence or absence of components, because if not he will spray the place is empty. Although no damage, but this is not something that is expected to occur at a factory.

A second example: a sensor for guiding expected quite sophisticated in welding. To perform the operation well, robotic welding rod must move along a predetermined weld line, and also move with constant speed and maintain a certain distance from the surface.

In accordance with the function of the sensor as a detector signal and the signal informing the system to the next, the role and function of the sensor will be followed by the transducer. Because of the link between the sensor and the transducer so closely the selection of the proper and appropriate transducers also need to be considered.
