The defination of robot
Assembly accounts for approximately 40% of the applications of the world robot stock . Many of these robots can be found in the automotive and electronics industries.
1865 Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory developed the beast robot.
1978 Unimation company developed industrial robot puma which means the industrial robot technology has fully matured.
1948Robert Wiener published"cybernetics",offered to the computer as the core of automated factory.
1954American George Dvorkin creat the world's first programmable robot,and registered patents.
The first rule Robot may not injure a human,or sit back
and do nothing hurt humans; The second rule Unless contrary to the first rule,the robot must obey human orders; The third rule Without prejudice to the first and second law,the
One of the most common uses forindustrial robots is welding .Robot welded car bodies for example enhances safety ,a robot never miss a welding spot and performs equally all through the day.
1959 Dvorkin and American inverntor Joseph Ying Ge Bogeinvernt the first industrial robot and found a robot copany---unimation.
Three laws of robotics
A robot is a stang-alone hybrid（混合的）computer system that performs physical and computational acticities.Capatable of performing many different tasks,it is a multiple-mintion device with one or more arms and joints. Robots can be similar in form to a human, but industrial robots do not resemble people at all.
robot must protect themselves.

the second stage ----technology develpoment(1954---1978)
Application of sensors to improve the operability of robot.
2006 Microosoft introduced Microsoft Robotics studio.
The application of robot
Industrial robots are used a wide specturm of applications.The main applicantions are still today however , welding and assembly. Below are some examples of current applications.
The application of robot
Packaging, is still a minor application area for industrial robots,accounting for only 2.8%.These application area is expected to grow as robots become easier to handle.

1999 Sony demonstrated the Intelligent robotics--AIBO
2002 iRobot company introduced a vacuum cleaner robot Roomba.
