• Humanoid refers to any being whose body structure

HISTORY OF HUMANOID ROBOT
• Integration of scientific and engineering fields, has a
social dimension. • WASEDA University- leading research sites. • First usable robot by HONDA in 1996. • HONDA humanoid robots- brief history • First high profile humanoid robot Honda’s ASIMO- 2000 ASIMO -2000 PEPPER WHY TO DEVELOP HUMANOIDS? More rational reasons:
• They can work in human environment without a
need to adapt themselves or to change the environment. • Our environment and our tool are adapted for us. WHY BUILT A HUMAN LIKE ROBOT?
• It is easier for human to interact with human-like –
being. • Critical to the representation. • To develop similar task constraints. HUMAN EVOLUTION HUMANOID EVOLUTION HUMANOID ROBOT APPLICATION • Entertainment • Education • Art • Search and rescue • Medical and welfare • Houseworks SURENA - IV ( Iranian humanoid robot 2019) CONCLUSION
Finally, as the technology
improves, there will be new ways to use robots which will bring new hopes and new potential. REFERENCE
