01.10 Write a Summary Title: Robots on Earth Author: Jerry West -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary:The Truth about Robots For years, robots have been misunderstood as evil mechanical creatures, set on a goal to conquer humanity and to rule the world. But, the truth is that robots are one of the marvelous mechanical inventions, that helps in making our lives more easier, safer and efficient. For example, working at chemical factories is a hazardous job for humans. However, this does not bother the robots, because they do not require pure air, or adequate temperature, in order to work efficiently. Robots in Space Furthermore, robots are used during space missions. The R2 humanoid robot helps humans in the International Space Station (ISS), by completing tasks, which are potentially dangerous for humans, in the Space Station. This is another example, which indicates that robots make human lives thrive in both space and on earth. Robots and Human Mobility Lastly, scientists are working on robots, that can be used to treat and help people with unique disabilities, such as Paralysis. For example, Neuroscientist Miguel Nicolelis is working with the Brazilian Government to develop a robotic exoskeleton, which will help a Brazilian teenager with quadriplegia, to play at the 2014 Soccer World Cup.
