Slide 1 (Andrés): Robotics, a discipline in constant evolution, redefines our world with innovation
and technological efficiency.
Slide 2 (Sergio): Origins of Robotics - Robotics has its roots in Ancient Greece, where the first
indications of the creation of automatons are found. One of the early engineers and
mathematicians who excelled in this field was Heron of Alexandria. Until the 19th century,
robotics was mainly limited to the creation of simple mechanical automatons that were
considered as toys or curiosities.
Slide 3 (Andrés): Origins of Robotics - The modern concept of robotics, as we know it today,
emerged in the 1950s, thanks to advances in electronics and computing. Josef Engelberg, who is
considered the father of industrial robotics, founded the first robotics company Unimation in 1956
and pioneered the creation of industrial robots for task automation in factories. One of the early
pioneers in this field was the British mathematician and scientist Alan Turing, who proposed the
ideas of machines capable of performing specific and programmable tasks. The term "robotics"
was coined by the science fiction writer Isaac Asimov in his story "Runabout." In 1942, Asimov is
also known for establishing the Three Laws of Robotics, which established the ethical and
behavioral principles of robots in his stories.
Slide 4 (Sergio): What is Robotics? - A discipline that deals with the design, construction,
programming, and operation of robots. Robotics combines concepts of mechanical engineering,
electronics, computer science, and control. These robots can be physical machines or virtual
systems that perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. Machines capable of interacting
with their environment and executing specific actions.
Slide 5 (Andrés): How Does Robotics Work? - Sensors and actuators, devices that detect and
convert information from the environment, such as light, temperature, motion, etc., into electrical
signals. Components that perform physical actions based on signals from the software, such as
moving arms or wheels. Software and hardware. A set of instructions that control the behavior of
the robot and define how to respond to different situations. Refers to the physical part of the
robot such as motors, structures, and circuits necessary for its operation.
Slide 6 (Sergio): Characteristics of Robotics - Automation: Robots can perform tasks autonomously
or following predefined instructions. This allows for process automation in industry, medicine, and
other fields.
Programmability: Robots can be programmed to perform different tasks and adapt to changing
situations. Their behavior can be modified through software.
Interaction with the environment: The use of sensors allows robots to perceive their environment
and make decisions based on the received information. They can detect obstacles, measure
distances, and recognize objects.
Versatility: Robotics encompasses a wide variety of applications, from industrial robots to drones,
autonomous vehicles, and personal assistants.
Specialized applications: There are robots designed for specific tasks such as surgery, space
exploration, cleaning, agriculture, and more.
Human-robot collaboration: Robotics also focuses on safe and efficient interaction between
humans and robots, enabling collaboration in environments such as factories or home assistants.
Slide 7 (Andrés): Evolutionary Timeline of Robotics - Timeline depicting key milestones in the
development of robotics from ancient times to the present day.
