Throughout the years, technology has improved drastically – creating machines and devices that were unimaginable 50 years ago. And perhaps the most advanced and interesting part of society’s technological advancements is robots – but it is also the most misunderstood. Unfortunately, humans are not always comfortable with robots. Too many people have seen science fiction featuring robots gone rogue, or they are simply unsure how to interact with them. It’s natural for people to be uncomfortable. But once they understand what they can do, most people will readily accept them

In fact, according to recent Research, more than 70 percent of the people who responded to a survey express concern about a world in which machines perform many of the tasks that were done by humans. Fortunately, there are people who believe humans and robots can coexist and work together in harmony and are working to debunk many of the fears people have about them.

Robots, in fact, can help humans in performing the tasks which are repetitive in nature and can help to automate undesirable tasks. Robotics doesn’t mean to act and walk like a human. Any machine that can think and act like human is Robot. Not necessarily in software ERPs like RPS performing the accounting and billing tasks, automating of purchase orders, receipts etc. The latest and very interesting emerging trend in house-hold products that is released in market is Robot vacuum cleaner that you can soon find in every house-hold. Robot vacuums are changing the way we do our home cleaning, and with good reason. They’re capable of tackling all sorts of hard-to-reach areas, including corners of closets and basements.

Robots are mostly used now in security and surveillance to avoid harm to human beings and can minimize the risk of error.
Monitoring perimeters and parking lots: They can scan license plates to identify vehicles and track how long a particular car has stayed in a spot. Robots can detect people in restricted areas and with facial recognition software, determine if they are authorized to be in that area. The robot can then alert a human security guard who can determine the appropriate level of response.

Identifying dangers: Robots can be equipped to detect risks like explosive devices, radiation or other dangers. They can also detect temperature changes, gas leaks, liquid spills or open doors. Robots can be an especially welcome presence in areas that can be hazardous to human guards. Through machine learning, the robot can continually improve the breadth of hazards it detects.

Control access and foot traffic: A robot can control spaces with regular patrols of areas you program or be placed at access points. Security robots can extend the presence of human security with real-time video that can be monitored by a guard. A human guard can be stationed at an access control point, with a robot performing regular patrols, allowing for greater territory coverage with fewer security guards.
