AI in Robotics - Notes

History of AI in Robotics

Artificial Intelligence in robotics dates back to the mid-20th century, where early robots were hard-coded for

specific tasks. Over time, AI was integrated to enable robots to perform complex tasks, perceive their

environment, and adapt to changes. Milestones include Shakey the robot (1966), industrial automation in the

1980s, and modern autonomous systems.

State of the Art

Current AI-enabled robots utilize machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and

real-time decision-making. Applications include autonomous vehicles, warehouse automation, surgical

robots, and domestic assistants. Deep learning and reinforcement learning have significantly advanced

robotic perception and control.

Need for AI in Robotics

AI empowers robots with autonomy, adaptability, and decision-making capabilities. As tasks become less

structured and environments more dynamic, traditional programming is insufficient. AI allows robots to

perceive, plan, learn from experience, and interact naturally with humans, making them more versatile and

capable.

Thinking and Acting Humanly

Thinking humanly involves modeling human cognitive processes using AI techniques. Acting humanly implies

that robots should behave indistinguishably from humans. This includes speech, facial recognition, and

emotional intelligence. Turing Test is a classic benchmark for acting humanly.

Intelligent Agents

An intelligent agent perceives its environment through sensors and acts upon it through actuators to achieve

goals. It can be simple (reactive) or complex (goal-based, utility-based, or learning agents). These agents

form the backbone of autonomous robotics systems.

Structure of Agents

Agent structure consists of:

- Sensors: To perceive the environment.

- Actuators: To perform actions.

- Architecture: Reactive, deliberative, hybrid.

- Agent Function: Maps percepts to actions.

Well-structured agents lead to efficient, goal-driven robotic systems.
