1. Domestic Robots

–Domestic robots perform tasks that humans regularly perform around their homes such as cleaning floors, mowing the lawn and pool maintenance. They can also provide assistance to the disabled and infirm as well as becoming robot butlers.

–Examples

•1.1 Working or chore robots

–1.1.1 Home couriers

–1.1.2 General helper robots

–1.1.3 Outdoors

 

•1.2 Entertainment

 

•1.3 Social robots

•Scientific Robots

–Robotic systems perform many functions multiple repetitive tasks made by

•gene samplers and sequencers, to systems which can almost

•replace the scientist in designing and running experiments, analysing data and even forming hypotheses. 

Ex:

•The ADAM at the University of Aberystwyth in Wales

•"[make] logical assumptions based on information programmed into it about yeast metabolism and the way proteins and genes work in other species. It then set about proving that its predictions were correct.”
