The Rise Of Robots In Our Everyday Lives Robot love, robot work, “killer robots” - we get the latest on robots moving deeper into life. Kaname Hayashi, a project leader of Humanoid Robots “Pepper,” talks with the robot at SoftBank Mobile shop in Tokyo, Friday, June 6, 2014. The cooing, gesturing humanoid on wheels that can decipher emotions has been unveiled in Japan by billionaire Masayoshi Son who says robots should be tender and make people smile. (AP)

Robot Reality: How Robots Will Change Our Lives The Robotic Future The robots are coming and their presence will eventually bridge the digital-physical divide , dramatically impacting human life, experts say. While a lot of attention has focused on how robots could hurt employment by replacing some human jobs , there are a number of positive ways robots may impact human life. Here are some ways robots may change your life in the future.

Robo Service As robots become more social, humans will encounter more and more robots in the service industry , said Illah Nourbakhsh , a professor of robotics at Carnegie Mellon University and author of Robot Futures . At first, humans will increasingly encounter robots more via telecommunications and it will become harder for them to distinguish robots from humans. And eventually, robots will begin to replace more service jobs—like waiting tables . There are already novelty robots in some places, including Japan where robots act as servers, taking and delivering orders.

Medical and Rehab Robots Robots used for medical purposes will also dramatically change the way we treat ailments. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon are experimenting with using robots that are just millimeters in size to perform heart surgery . Engineers at Autodesk are also working with medical researchers to help them develop nano -robots that could be injected into cancer patients to selectively kill cancer cells. For people with impairments like a spinal cord injury or partial paralysis caused by a stroke, robotics may also be able to assist in the rehabilitation process.

Robo Cops Robots have played a role in the military for some time. But in the future we will see a growing presence of robots used in the law enforcement, as well. The robot maker Robotex , which is partially backed by PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel , has deployed its AVATAR robots across the U.S. SWAT teams, first responders and other law enforcement use the devices to quickly assess dangerous situations to help them engage in action.

Beam Yourself Anywhere If you think humans are distracted by their smartphones now, wait until they have a remote robot that they can tap into and control from anywhere at anytime from their handheld device. "Today we are already not all there, but telepresence robotics makes more compelling ways to visit your home, an other places when you are not there," Nourbakhsh said. One use for a telepresence robot would be be to beam yourself to work from a remote location, another – for entertainment.

Let the Robot Drive Robots may be impacting your commute sooner than you think. According to Google , we are only about three to five years away from an autonomous car that is roadworthy. But before driverless cars are able to freely chauffeur humans around, there is still some work to do

Robot Teachers A number of schools in the U.S. are already adopting robots into the classroom, not as replacements for teachers, but as teaching assistants. And it won't be long before robots play a bigger role in the educational system, experts say. Robots can be programmed to teach just about anything, making them an effective classroom tool.

Слайд 13

Robot Entertainers A big shift in the entertainment industry will spur from telepresence robots because it will allow people to travel and attend events just about anywhere. However, robots will also be able to perform music and make artwork for humans to enjoy. An all robot band called Compressorhead recently performed at a Gibson booth during the Frankfurt Music Fair in Frankfurt, Germany .

Longer Lives via Avatars Robots may also be key in helping humans dramatically extend their lifespan , according to Russian tycoon Dmitry Itskov . Itskov is the founder of the 2045 Initiative, which is a non-profit organization focused on creating an international research center for scientists to research and develop technologies in the field of life extension. His vision consists of humans eventually being able to transfer their human consciousness in an artificial form to avatars .
