Robotics : intelligent machines for the new century / by Thro, Ellen.(CARDINAL)738828;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-180) and index.Robot family tree -- Anatomy of a robot -- Robots on the job today -- Artificial intelligence -- Intelligent and advanced robots -- Space robots--Past, present, and future -- Robots, Society, and you -- Future of robotics -- Glossary -- Robotics-oriented websites -- Stores and websites selling robots, Robot kits, and/or robot books.Facts On File's new Science and Technology in Focus series is geared to making cutting-edge science and technology subjects accessible to middle and high school students, using straightforward language and appealing line illustrations and photographs. In this new and expanded edition of Robotics, Ellen Thro, a noted science writer and researcher, presents a compelling overview of this evolving area of artificial intelligence. Since the original edition of Robotics was published nearly a decade ago, many advances in the areas of miniaturization, sensory feedback, and voice recognition have transformed the development and use of intelligent robotics. Once the products only of people's imaginations, real robots are more and more commonplace today in many familiar environments, especially homes, offices, and hospitals. This volume covers the history and development of robotics (including a "Robot Family Tree"), the anatomy of a robot (vision systems, sensors, and control mechanisms), industrial robots and how they are used around the world, specialized robots (used in the military, in space, and in hazardous situations), and the changing relationship between robots and humans in this new century. Robotics includes an extensive index, a glossary of terms to help readers better understand the field, an appendix of robotics-oriented websites, and a bibliography of current sources for further research.

014+"Sixteen acclaimed authors--including a National Book Award nominee, a New York Times best-selling novelist, and a beloved actress--join forces for a cross-genre YA anthology of linked short stories about the first days of college. Jilly cannot believe her parents keep showing up at all of her orientation events. (Except, yes, she can totally believe that.) Isaac wants to be known as someone other than the kid who does magic and has an emotional support bunny. Lilly is stuck working at the college bookstore during orientation (but maybe new friends are closer than they appear). Hira, meanwhile, just wants to retire from ghost hunting once and for all, but a spirit in the library's romance section has other ideas. For their sophomore effort, the contributing editors behind the critically acclaimed Battle of the Bands admit us to opening day at a fictional college, with a collection that makes an ideal high school graduation gift or "summer-before" read. This colorful array of stories spans genres and moods--from humorous to heartfelt to ghostly--tackling with sensitivity, humor, and warmth what it feels like to take those first shaky steps into adulthood."--Publisher marketing.HL760L
