Dictionary Of Robotics

A compilation of over 4,000 terms and their definitions relevant to artificial intelligence and robotics. Keeping in mind newcomers and more experienced business people in the field, it includes multiple and alternative meanings, abbreviations, acronyms, and foreign expressions. Supplies both general and specialized entries. Cites the relationship between robotics, AI, and computer control terms where applicable. Groups entries containing mutual concepts together alphabetically, by their common term. Identifies archaic terms and their preferred alternative. Useful for increasing clarity, exactness, and stabilizing the most current terminology.

Hardbound. This dictionary provides the terminology used in all fields of robotics: basic technological principles, robot construction, robot tappets, robot drives, robot controls, robot kinematics, effectors, sensors, robot computer systems, robot programming, robot application, and development tendencies.Compiled particularly for specialized scientists and engineers working on robot development or the application of robot technology, it is also a valuable reference work for lecturers and students at universities, technical and engineering colleges, and other schools of higher education where robotics is studied, and serves as a useful aid for translators.

This dictionary contains terms from the fields of automatic control, which includes mathematical modelling, simulation of dynamic systems, automation technology with its corresponding elements, and robotics. It also includes signal processing, information technologies and production technologies. The terminological dictionary is primarily aimed at experts and students who deal with control technology and dynamic systems in both technical and non-technical domains. To be able to use the dictionary, at least basic knowledge in this field is required. In the dictionary users will find concise terminological definitions. A concept may be designated by different terms; therefore, cross-references are used. The aim of the dictionary is to collect and unify – at least to an achievable extent – the terminology in the field of automatic control, dynamic systems and robotics.
