Changes to the TPC showroom and operations will "make it easier [for students] to get information and figure out what they want," said Amy K. Lozano, marketing information coordinator...
...Lozano-Perez says that one of the fastest-developing areas of A.I. at the moment is artificial hearing...
...Lozano-Perez has come up with an algorithm which allows a robot arm to carry out a pre-programmed series of tasks while avoiding obstacles which are placed in its way. He now is trying to come up with methods by which robots can "fiddle" with machine parts in order to make them...
Currently, says Lozano-Perez, industrial robots are no more than sophisticated "tape recorders." They are programmed by experts who lead their mechanical arms through, the motions of a particular task. The robots store this sequence of movements in their memories and can later repeat it an unlimited number of times...
Although such blind repetition may be sufficient for commercial applications, says Lozano-Perez, it does not exploit the full potential of the robot. He hopes to construct robots that need only general instructions, instead of the highly specified directions that present-day robots require. His creations would then by themselves identify needed parts, convey them to pre-ordained locations, and work them around--as a human might--until they fit properly...
