Artificial Inteligence

By Charbel Tarabey 1

  • Isac Asimov created 3 laws

    1- A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
    2- A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
    3- A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

  • Interactive Robot Pets

    These robots look like animals, act like living animals and make the same sound as an animal. eg: The Lion Cub has blinking eyes, an animated mouth and an internal micro-controller with recorded lion cub sounds.
    Lion cub's sensor's are activated when you pet or hold it and will purr and mew.
