Robots are no longer a new thing, but they are in the ascendant. From the living room to the battlefield, we can find them. However, whether it is into the daily life of human beings or participating in war, robots are required to have strong judgment, great reliability and absolute obedience to human beings. Can our silicon brain assistants do this? And as we go to the future laboratory to explore.
Robot, the best friend of mankind?
The robot that will dance, wash dishes, and care for the patient... This is no longer the plot of science fiction! In the near future, this kind of intelligent robot will enter our daily life. However, if one day it does not make friends with us?
In February 2009, an office in Alde-baran RoboTIcs. The short Nao looked up and asked Jean-Paul to recognize a badge on the lapels of the latter. So, it talked with the guests with a trembling voice: "You wear the same badge as me!" Jean-Paul seems to hear the child speak for the first time, can not help but be surprised and happy. It turns out that Nao is not a human being with flesh and blood, but a robot! Its appearance is completely without the shadow of the "terminator", but it is like a strong and lovely Pinocchio. Right now, it is being demonstrated at Aldebaran. Jean-Paul, a local politician, made a special trip to see the "Made in France" robot that will be launched globally. The advent of Nao indicates that the companion robot will swept like a tsunami. The first wave is the emerging entertainment robot. Like Nao, they dance, can play all MP3 songs on demand, and even do very useful work to help the master review English lessons. The second wave is a home robot that will appear around 2020. These “Snail Girls†will do housework, wash dishes, and clean up the room. And between 2050 and 2060, robots that can care for patients like real nurses will also debut!
In short, the future will be the world of robots. This is not a view of Aldebaran. Japan and South Korea share the same view. They have made great strides in robotics research, and the investment has reached millions of euros. The goal of the scientists of the two countries is to launch a home-oriented robot for the masses in the market within 10 years. The price is about 7,000 or 8,000 euros, which is equivalent to the price of Logan, the low-end series of Renault, France. A family can afford it. In short, the picture of the future society will be filled with a large number of robots, which is no longer a science fiction novel, but a reality that can be foreseen.

Obviously, things get complicated. Because, in the robot story written by all science fiction writers, the robots that buttered the bread of the masters will invariably have a heartbreaking moment – ​​the bread knife into the owner's belly.
Robots are not smart
Will a tragedy really happen? For this speculation, Aldbaran's contact person, BasTIen Parent, did not agree. "The robots can't do whatever they want. They are just tools. They can only follow the pre-programmed procedures. "That is, you have to use your brain to do dangerous things, and the robot is not smart enough." There is no doubt that the current situation is indeed the case, but what will happen in the future? Because tomorrow's robots are not just simple operators, they can be proactive and become extremely smart. American AI expert Hans Moravec recently published an article in "ScienTIfic American" predicting that by 2050, the wisdom of robots will be comparable to humans! The reason for this conclusion is based on the simple fact that robots are computers with legs. Therefore, their IQ is directly dependent on their computing power. This capability has exploded in the past 40 years!
In the 1970s, when information technology was legendically developed, computers processed 1 million instructions per second, and they had to spend a lot of effort. Today, the best laptops can easily handle 10 billion instructions per second! This number is really amazing. However, compared with animal intelligence, robots are not as smart as a small fish. Hans Moravik said: "At the current rate of development, after more than 20 years, there will be robots capable of handling 100 trillion instructions per second, which is comparable to human intelligence. Robots can not only think and speed, but the silly robots that only play compact discs and are always caught by the same obstacles will eventually be eliminated. Future robots will have strong judgment and ability to happen. The unexpected situation is analyzed and the corresponding countermeasures are taken. We can imagine a scene where the robot walks in the kitchen and suddenly slams, it knocks down a vase and hears the sound of the vase falling on the ground and breaking. The robot checks it right away. What happened? Its circuit started working, going back to the previous few seconds to get the truth out. The robot would think: 'Before the vase was placed on the furniture, I just passed by the furniture. I must have come across furniture or vases. So, I have to go further from the furniture in the room.'"
In other words, the robot is able to determine the parameters by itself, but instead of automatically generating the information encoding lines in the central computer, it modifies the variables in the program used to adjust the behavior, such as the distance between the robot body and the wall. The robot is also able to download its own missing software over the network. The problem is that programs often have execution errors. What happens if a programming flaw interferes with the behavior of the robot? You know, a computer virus will reverse the cursor on the screen. When the mouse is pushed up, the cursor moves down, and when the mouse is pulled down, the cursor moves up. If a similar failure occurs on the robot, it becomes as aggressive as a bull and may lead to unpredictable results.
To be frank, it’s really chilling to see the most advanced robots available today. Take the Japanese avant-garde robot HRP-3 as an example. If you see it in the hands of a hand drill (HRP-3 was developed in cooperation with a large public engineering company), people can't help but put their hands together and pray that it is only on wood or steel. Drill holes, don't make holes in other places.
A bug is enough for the robot to shred you
Prayer is not enough for researchers. They are trying to find a way to make the robots that live with us not endanger human security. As early as the 1940s, science fiction author Issac Asimov was deeply disturbed by the imaginary challenge facing humanity. In his book "Robots," he imagined embedding a good behavior code in the robot. The three simple rules involved are considered to cover the various situations in which robots threaten humans. As long as there is a slight violation of the law, the robot will immediately interrupt the work...
Today, robotics experts are familiar with these rules without exception. However, turning them into code is very complicated. Because in a computer program, continuous propositions are binary, there are only two answers: yes or no. The robot either goes upstairs or goes downstairs; it is not to the right, it is to the left. Can't be in between. The famous three laws do not give such a clear answer. Asimov stipulates that robots should "protect their lives." What is the "life" of a robot, how can a machine realize its "life"?
For this reason, people must take a different approach, and Japan and South Korea are working hard in this direction. Experts are writing rules to ensure that robots are harmless, and claim that they will not be based on the original three rules. A working version of the latest version of Japan has up to 60 pages! Of course, the author has considered providing the robot with all possible and imaginable sensors, such as force sensors. With it, the robot will not crush the human hand bones like a walnut shell when shaking hands with people.
However, the authors acknowledge that even with these precautions, accidents can occur. To this end, a series of suggestions have been made, and it is possible to directly incorporate procedures for guiding robot behavior in the future. Robotics experts around the world will continually revise and improve these software. Once a robot has a problem, the victim and related parties will record the ins and outs of the incident to a large database for all users. In this way, French researchers can find solutions to such problems in Chinese robots, and vice versa. The robot can download a solution saved in the form of an information file to complete the software update and improve security, just like the approach taken by today's computers. This will limit the "throat of the robot" to the utmost extent. Of course, it is impossible to completely avoid threats, because we can never stop human beings from using crime. As Bastian Palang of Aldebaran Robotics says, robots are just tools. A madman, a psychopathic killer or a jealous husband can change his intended use and turn it into a killing machine. Even if people are struggling, the danger of robots will always exist. Because no matter whether the robot exists or not, humans have not changed anything...
Thyristor module is one of the most commonly used semiconductor devices because of its small size, simple structure and strong function.This device has been widely applied in various kinds of electronic equipment and electronic products, used as a rectifier, inverter, frequency, voltage regulator, contactless control of motor speed, motor excitation, non-contact switch and the power control, etc.
