16、estion 5:How to choose a suitable explorer robot?期望 AnswerTranslation机器人类型 众所周知，机器人是由多个子系统组成的，因此它可以灵活地应用于各种环境，具有特定的设计和装配。举个例子，机器人可以用来移动和堆放在仓库的产品或者帮助外科医生在医院进行手术。机器人的设计和类型是由实际需求决定的。机器人一般分为工业机器人、实验室机器人、医疗机器人、以及探险机器人等。工业机器人 工业上使用的机器人通常被称为工业机器人，它们的手臂上有夹具或其它工具。机械手臂负责在运动规划下移动到目标位置，夹具负责将产品捡起并放置到新的位置。所有的工业机器
17、人都可以通过编程和电脑化控制。工业机器人的种类也多种多样，如焊接机器人、装配机器人、喷漆机器人等。实验室机器人 与工业机器人不同，实验室机器人的形状是不固定的。实验室机器人一般具备微型处理器、多关节手臂、视功能等特殊设备。实验室里的机器人可以是静止的，也可以是移动的，但它的用途只有一个，就是为可重复的实验室程序节省大量的劳动。Translation机器人类型医疗机器人 医疗机器人是在医院和医学研究机构中常见的服务于医疗性能和护理服务的机器人。医用机器人工作精度高，且其工作无疲劳感。医疗机器人可以显著提高手术的速度和质量。第一个已知的医疗机器人在1985年被命名为PUMA 560。此外，医疗机器人可以为患者和老年人提供护理和监护服务，节省劳动力，对医疗需求能做出快速反应。探测型机器人 对于战争地区、野外、外层空间、深海等难以接近或危险的环境，可以使用探测型机器人进行探测、救援和数据采集等工作。探测型机器人的工作环境恶劣，因此标准比其它类型的机器人都要高。此外，探测型机器人要求具备极高的地形机动性、多感官系统、强大的通信能力和控制系统，以保证其正常使用。这也是探测型机器人比其他机器人更贵的原因。Thank you
