The original word "robot" comes from the script "Rochem Cosmic Robot Company" written by Czech writer karel capek 1920. Capec wrote the Czech word "Robota" as "robot", describing the social tragedy that the robot developed from a slave who can only work but can't think to destroy human beings, and then evolved into human beings.
Isn't the robot in our mind like this now? They have no thinking, but they will work tirelessly for mankind according to the procedures set by people.
Later, in order to prevent the occurrence of human tragedies, American science fiction writer Isaac Asimo first proposed three laws of robots in 1940:
1), robots should not harm humans;
2) Robots should obey human orders, except those that violate 1;
3) Robots should be able to protect themselves, except those that conflict with 1) and 2).
It laid the foundation for the development of science fiction literature, movies and industry. There are ancients before, and there are newcomers after, and some people will gradually turn it into reality. ......
1956, an American named engelberg met George Devol, a famous engineer and investor, at a party. They discussed isaac asimov's philosophy about robots and De Waal's patented "Programmable Object Transfer" device. In engelberg's view, De Waal imagined that the device in his head was actually a robot, and then he had the idea of putting it into use.
The idea was put into practice immediately after it sprouted. 1958, after George Devol's research was patented in the United States, Unimation Company was established in engelberg and George Devol, which was the first robot enterprise in the world. Unimation company developed the world's first industrial robot in 1959.
196 1 year, this robot was installed on the production line of GM's American factory to produce interior hardware such as doors, window handles, shift handles and lamp holders.
"Because of him, robots have become a global industry."
Since 196 1 the first robot started to run, the robot industry has officially started to develop rapidly. The role of industrial robots in the production line is very obvious, with precise movements, never getting tired, not afraid of high temperature and pollution. For example, welding work in high temperature environment will produce harmful gases, and workers will be poisoned if they are not careful, so robots will not have this problem.
General Motors began to order more robots and install them in factories all over the United States, and its work scope expanded to welding, painting, bonding and assembly. This helped it achieve a revolutionary breakthrough in automated production and consolidated and expanded its leading position in the industry. Other car companies have followed suit and used robots on their own assembly lines. The American Robotics Association later commented that engelberg's invention "completely changed the process of modern industry and automobile manufacturing".
The rise of robot industry makes the development of robots hot all over the world, which is a great progress in history. Kawasaki Heavy Industries of Japan launched the Unimation manipulator, and later surpassed the United States to become the "robot kingdom".
With the rapid development of unimotion, engelberg sold unimotion to Westinghouse on 1983 and withdrew from the industrial robot industry.
However, the development of industrial robot industry did not stop because of his withdrawal. With the improvement of computer technology and the development of Internet technology, the concepts of 2G-3G-4G-5g, Industry 4.0, Internet of Things and artificial intelligence have been put forward and implemented, and many researchers have made efforts. Today, artificial intelligence has gradually entered people's lives, and 5G networks are about to appear in front of people at a faster speed. The development of industrial robots.
Engelberg is undoubtedly a pioneer in the development of industrial robot industry.
Nowadays, industrial robots are increasingly replacing tedious and high-risk manual work in factories, which is the general trend and what most factories need for development.
In the future, industrial robots will participate in the development of the Internet of Everything and become an indispensable member, serving mankind more intelligently, quickly and efficiently.
However, many people are worried about the development of industrial robots. What Xiaoyu wants to say here is that the future has come and the trend is unstoppable. Only by constantly learning and improving ourselves can we stand out in the future competition, which is the same in every era.
Then let's talk to you, * *!
