A Survey of Robotic Technology.

Abstract

Robotic Technology is surveyed as a prelude to examination of its use in Naval Air Maintenance tasks. Topics include Robot Classification schemes, programming techniques, power systems, manipulators, control systems, sensors, and end effectors. In this survey, A robot is defined as a machine with three components: a multifunctional manipulator to move objects and tools; a controller to store data and direct the manipulator; a power system for the manipulator.
