The ever-growing society has
made people see technology as
some form of necessity.

Technology comes from the Greek


words techne and logos which
mean art and word, respectively.

Technology means a discourse on


arts.
OM
SLIDESMANIA.C
Technology first appeared in the
17th century where the concept
was only used to talk about the
arts, specifically applied arts.

Concepts like machine and


tools were also attached to the
word “technology” which is the
more popular sense of the
concept nowadays.

A number of technological
devices can be easily found inside
the home, the most accessible
place to anyone.

People all over the world use


these technologies every day to
accomplish different purposes.

Paul Gottlieb Nipkow, a German student,


in the late 1800s was successful in his
attempt to send images through wires
with the aid of a rotating disk.

In 1907, two inventors, Alan

MOBILE PHONES
On April 3, 1973 Martin Cooper, a senior
engineer at Motorola, made the world’s
first mobile phone call.

The mobile phone used by Cooper


weighed 1.1 kilograms and measured
228.6 x 127 x 44.4 mm.

This kind of device was capable of a 30-


Martin Cooper minute talk time. However, it took 10

hours to charge.
MOBILE PHONES

In 1983, Motorola made their first


commercial mobile phone available
to the public.

It was known as the Motorola


DynaTAC 8000X.

It was Charles Babbage, a 19th


century English Mathematics professor,
who designed the Analytical Engine
which was used as the basic
framework of the computers even until
the present time.

According to Philstar (2013), a
typical household owns at least
four of the following devices:

• Mobile phone (89%)


• Smartphone (53%)
• Tablet (14%)
• Desktop (39%),
• Laptop or netbooks (37%)
• Smart TV (4%)

These data prove the deep-

 Most parents would argue that

Robotics
and Humanity
OM

Another great product of the innovative
minds of the people is the robot.

Example there are so called service


robots. These particular robots do
specific tasks but focus mainly in
assisting their masters in their
everyday tasks.
OM
SLIDESMANIA.C
The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) and United
Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) made it
their task to formulate a working definition for service robots.

 A robot is an actuated mechanism programmable in two


or more axes with a degree of autonomy, moving within its
environment, to perform intended tasks.

 A service robot is a robot that performs useful tasks for


humans or equipment excluding industrial automation
application.
OM
SLIDESMANIA.C
 A personal service robot or a service robot for personal use is
a robot used for a noncommercial task, usually by
laypersons.

Ex. Domestic servant robot, automated wheelchair, personal


mobility assist robot, and pet exercising robot.

 A professional service robot or a service robot for professional


use is a robot used for a commercial task, usually operated
by a properly trained operator

Ex. Cleaning robot for public places, delivery robot in offices or


OM

hospitals, fire fighting robot, rehabilitation robot, and surgery


robot in hospitals.
Germany was one of the first countries
to develop service robots.

Germany sponsored a collaborative


project called DESIRE (Deutsche
Servicerobotik Initiative-Germany
Service Robotics Initiative) which was
launched on October 1, 2005
OM

DESIRE
Some of the expected work
to be performed by DESIRE
are the ff:

 Clear up the kitchen


table

 Fill the dishwasher

 Clear up this room

DESIRE
Just like people living in the society, robots also
have their own set of rules and characteristics
that define what a good robot is.

These laws were formulated by Isaac Asimov


back in the 1940’s, when he was thinking of the
ethical consequences of robots.

These are the following:

Law One: A robot may not injure a human being


or, through inaction, allow a human being to
Isaac Asimov come to harm.
OM
SLIDESMANIA.C
Law Two: A robot must obey the orders given it
by human beings except where such orders
would conflict with the First Law.

Law Three: A robot must protect its own


existence as long as such protection does not
conflict with the First or Second Law.
