T
he greatest talented man,leonardo had the following ideas regarding robot.it was his another great contribution to the fiels of science and engineering
Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) sketched plans for a humanoid robot around 1495. Da Vinci's notebooks, rediscovered in the 1950s, contain detailed drawings of a mechanical knight now known as
Leonardo's robot, able to sit up, wave its arms and move its head and jaw.
[11] The design was probably based on anatomical research recorded in his
Vitruvian Man. It is not known whether he attempted to build it. In 1738 and 1739,
Jacques de Vaucanson exhibited several life-sized automatons: a flute player, a pipe player and a duck. The mechanical duck could flap its wings, crane its neck, and swallow food from the exhibitor's hand, and it gave the illusion of digesting its food by excreting matter stored in a hidden compartment.
[12] Complex mechanical toys and animals built in Japan in the 18th century were described in the
Karakuri zui (
Illustrated Machinery, 1796)
It
was issc Asimov who futured the robot to nurture the mankind and still popular:
Isaac Asimov's Four Laws of Robot behavior
Asimov created the four laws of robot behavior, cyber laws all robots had to obey and a fundamental part of positronic robotic engineering. The Isaac Asimov FAQ states, "Asimov claimed that the laws were originated by John W. Campbell in a conversation they had on December 23, 1940. Campbell in turn maintained that he picked them out of Asimov's stories and discussions, and that his role was merely to state them explicitly. The first story to explicitly state the three laws was "Runaround", which appeared in the March 1942 issue of "Astounding Science Fiction". Unlike the Three Laws, however, the Zeroth Law is not a fundamental part of positronic robotic engineering, is not part of all positronic robots, and, in fact, requires a very sophisticated robot to even accept it."
- Law Zeroth: A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
- Law One: A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, unless this would violate a higher order law.
- Law Two: A robot must obey orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with a higher order law.
- Law Three: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with a higher order law.
