Как сделать машинку на радиоуправлении своими руками

Каждый ребёнок хочет иметь машину на радиоуправлении. На сегодняшний день такие машинки достаточно дорогие, а дети их быстро ломают, но не стоит паниковать зря.

Умелые руки, фантазия и подручные материалы позволят самостоятельно сделать такую машину из картона, которая не уступит по мощности и проходимости покупным машинкам из пластмассы.
Для её изготовления нам понадобится:
· картон из ящиков,
· строительный нож,
· карандаш, линейка,
· клей,
· двигатели постоянного тока,
· провода,
· кнопка включения и выключения,
· паяльник,
· джойстик управления,
· аккумулятор,
· пластиковый кружок, пластиковые трубочки,
· резинки,
· металлическая палка,
· пластиковая обложка для книг,
· пластиковые крышки от пластиковых бутылок 6 штук,
· деревянные палочки,
· светодиоды и конденсаторы.

Начальный этап
Для начала возьмём лист картона 9/ 28 см. и вырежем в нём несколько деталей.
С левой стороны вверху, отступите примерно 1,5 см. от бокового края и вырежьте прямоугольник 3/ 4,5 см, то же самое сделайте снизу, а с правой стороны сверху отступите примерно 4,5 см. и вырежьте прямоугольник 2/ 4,5 см., идентичный вырежьте снизу.Между этими прямоугольниками посередине вырежьте полоску 1/ 4,5 см. Эта деталь послужит нижней частью нашего автомобиля.

Вырежем боковую сторону.
Для этого на картоне 9/ 28 см. необходимо нарисовать вид машины. В левой стороне отступите примерно 0,5 см. от бокового края и 1 см. от нижнего, проведите линию длиной 4 см., а от неё линию наклоняя в середину длиной 5 см. прямо до конца картона. С правой стороны проведите от края чуть ниже середины горизонтальную линию от края в середину, приподымая немного вверх, длиной 7,5 см, а от неё линию 5,5 см., ведя вверх и наклоняя в середину. Внутри этой части картона можно нарисовать окна, дверцы и колёса. Причём колёса и окна также надо вырезать, а дверцы просто надрезать, чтобы они открывались и закрывались. Таких деталей необходимо сделать две, ведь они будут боковыми сторонами нашего автомобиля.

Колеса
Чтобы сделать колёса возьмите 4 крышки от пластиковых бутылок и сделайте в середине по отверстию. На бамбуковую палочку для барбекю приклейте посередине маленький пластиковый кружок, сделав сначала в нём подходящее для этого отверстие. Теперь возьмите пластиковую трубочку как от ватной палочки, отмерьте размер на картоне, который будет дном машины. С правой стороны от нижнего вырезанного прямоугольника до средней полоски отрежьте два таких отрезка. Затем наденьте их на бамбуковую палочку вплотную к приклеенному кругу с двух сторон. После наденьте крышки от бутылки и, отступив от полосок примерно 0,5 см., приклейте их, а остаток бамбуковой палки отрежьте, чтобы она не выглядывала из-под крышек.

На середину, где приклеен пластиковый круг, наденьте резинку. Теперь приклейте колёса в предназначенное для них место с правой стороны картона, резинка должна находиться в среднем отверстии. К следующим двум крышкам нужно вставить в отверстие пластиковые трубочки, приклеить их, а затем отрезать пластиковую трубочку по высоте самой крышки. От корпуса шариковой ручки отрезаем два кусочка по 2,5 см. Надеваем их на металлическую палочку и с помощью плоскогубцев выгибаем эту палку. В результате должно получиться: горизонтально металлический штырь длиной примерно 3 см., под углом 90 градусов.

Автор изобретения Creative Chanel .

Материалы

Нам понадобится 2-х канальный передатчик, пульт управления (джойстик), два 9Г сервопривода, старая велосипедная камера, лист пластмассы и 8 палочек от мороженного. А да, не забываем про аккумулятор Li-Pol 3.7 В на 150 мАч.
Клей, кусочки, нож и ножницы берём на полке.

Готовим моторы

В качестве двигателей будут использоваться сервоприводы. Необходимо разобрать из и срезать ограничители на шестернях. Стандартные провода срезаем и припаиваем по 2 провада на каждый моторчик (+ и – соответственно).

Рама

Из пластмассы вырезаем пластину 40 на 100 мм и две пластины 20 на 100 мм. В маленькие пластины монтируем сервоприводы. И при помощи клея собираем каркас.

Катки

Ролики делаем также из пластмассы: кропотливо и аккуратно вырезаем 12 кружков диаметром 20 мм и 8 кружков по 30 мм. Склеиваем 3 маленьких кружка, а по краям 2 больших. Так мы получаем 4 катка. Крепим к раме на болты, просверлив отверстия в катках и в раме.

Гусеницы

Из старой велосипедной камеры вырезаем две полоски длиной 25мм и шириной 6 мм. Каждую полоску склеиваем.
Да клей выдержит, нагрузки на стык большой не будет.
Палочки от мороженного режим на полоски по 14 мм и приклеиваем продольно на изготовленную гусеницу.

Сборка

Все самые мудрённые этапы закончены. Ставим гусеницы на катки. К передатчику припаиваем провода от сервоприводов и подключаем аккумулятор.

Миг 29 из EPP пенопласта на радиоуправлении

Приветствую всех любителей масштабных моделей и моделей на RC (то-есть на пульте управления). В октябре 2017 года у коллеге по работе я купил себе радиоуправляемый истребитель МИГ-29. Этот истребитель мой коллега изготовил сам из EPP пенопласта (пенопласт который гнется) и карбоновых реек, которые держат форму. Помимо самолета он мне в подарок отдал запасные сервомашинки с качалками а так-же аккумулятор на 500 mAh. Я купил его потому-что я начинающий авиамоделист и как любой начинающий авиамоделист боюсь сломать свой первый самолет.
Выбрал я данный самолет из-за его материала, так как он сделан из EPP пенопласта. А EPP пенопласт не ломается а гнется тем самым уменьшая шанс краша моей модели. Так как пульт управления и приемник у меня уже были, то докупать всего этого не пришлось.
(фотографии делались на телефон поэтому качества фоток будет не лучшее)

RC МИГ-29 из EPP пенопласта.
На этом истребители как и полагается модели на RC работают:
– рули высоты,
– рули направления
– элекроны,
– двигатель
Ниже я все продемонстрировал.

Работающие элероны приводящие в движение сервомашинками

Работающие рули направления приводящие в движения сервомашинками
А вот и сами сервомашинки, так они закреплены на крыле, они приводят в движения элероны:

Сервомашинка закрепленная на крыле приводит в движение элерон
Естественно что приводит самолет в движение так это электрический моторчик по типу 2205. На моей модели моторчик стоит на носу, хотя на таких моделях он стоит на середине самолет. Вот как он выглядит:

электрический моторчик серии 2205
На пути к моторчику стоит регулятор, он отвечает за количество оборотов на моторчике и следовательно за скорость самой модели. Вот как он выглядет:

Белый прямоугольник это регулятор оборотов.
Все это питается от аккумуляторов, на этом самолете стоит Li-Po аккумулятор на 450mAh. Вот он:

Закрепленный на модели LI-Po аккумулятор на 450mAh
Крепится он на липучках (как на обуви). Вот как выглядит крепление аккумулятора на корпусе модели:

Белая полоса возле фюзеляжа и есть крепление для аккумулятора
Так как модель сделана из EPP пенопласта, то когда она будет летать не сможет держать форму (так как EPP пенопласт гибкий) и что -бы он держал форму и не гнулся вклеили карбоновые рейки и спицы. Вот они черного цвета:

Карбоновые спицы держат нос самолета

Карбоновые рейки держат крылья

Карбоновые спицы держат хвостовое оперение

Карбоновые рейки держат рули направления

Карбоновая рейка держит корпус самолета
Ну про самолет вроде все рассказал и показал, ах да не рассказал про винты, ну винты надо еще подобрать, хотя парочка в запасе валяется. Помимо самого самолета мне еще достались запасные комплектующие к нему. Вот они все:

Комплектующие
Ниже я покажу их по подробнее, кстати некоторые из них еще не стоят на самолете мне а предстоит еще их подключить и настроить.
1) Винты, вы спросите почему 2 винта, да потому что эта деталь которая часто ломается при падении самолета а падения бывают у всех. Поэтому они даже продаются чаще всего комплектом по несколько штук.

Винты
2) Li-Po аккумуляторы. Я уже выше рассказывал об аккумулятора, но у меня их тоже 2 штуки, в основном их всегда берут по 2 штуки, так как один быстро разряжается. Одного аккумулятора хватает на 10-20 минут полета. Один у меня на 450 mAh а второй на 500 mAh.

Li-Po аккумуляторы на 450 mAh (снизу) и на 500 mAh (сверху)
3) Сервомашинки с качалками. Как я уже выше рассказывал сервомашинки приводят в действие подвижные части самолета а именно:
элероны,
рули высоты,
рули направления

Сервомашинки с качалками (качалки в пакетике)
4) Приемник с заглушкой. Про заглушку я расскажу когда буду рассказывать о пульте управления а про приемник расскажу. Задача приемника ловить сигнал с пульта радиоуправления и передавать его ко всем устройствам. К нему подключаются все устройства а именно: регулятор оборотов с моторчиком и все сервомашинки. Вот как он выглядет:

Приемник (наверху) и заглушка (внизу)
Ну что-ж про самолет рассказал позже я расскажу про пульт управления, ему я посвящу целый пост. (если я что-то упустил, то обязательно добавлю). Ну а что-бы узнать про пульт управления подписывайтесь на меня. И вы обязательно узнаете!
Источник: zen.yandex.ru 90000 How Radio Controlled Toys Work 90001 90002 Advertisement 90003 90002 You have probably seen the ads on Saturday morning television proclaiming the amazing abilities of the “Super Ultra Road-rippin ‘Devastator” or some other 90005 radio controlled (RC) 90006 car. And you may have seen people at the park flying a model airplane or blimp, or controlling a miniature boat sailing serenely across a pond. 90003 90002 In this article, you will learn all about radio control.You will find out what frequencies are used for RC toys, what the different components are and how they all work together. You will also learn what the difference between radio control and remote control is when talking about toys or models. 90003 90010 Types of RC Toys 90011 90002 RC toys come in a large variety of models, including: 90003 90002 While the mechanics of how they operate can differ greatly between different toys, the basic principle is the same.All radio controlled toys have four main parts: 90003 90016 90017 90005 Transmitter 90006 – You hold the transmitter in your hands to control the toy. It sends Radio waves to the receiver. 90020 90017 90005 Receiver 90006 – An antenna and circuit board inside the toy receives signals from the transmitter and activates motors inside the toy as commanded by the transmitter. 90020 90017 90005 Motor (s) 90006 – Motors can turn wheels, steer the vehicle, operate propellers, etc.90020 90017 90005 Power source 90006 90020 90033 90002 The transmitter sends a control signal to the receiver using radio waves (see How Radio Works for details), which then drives a motor, causing a specific action to occur. The motor in a car may cause the wheels to turn, while the motor in a plane may adjust the flaps. The power source is typically a rechargeable battery pack, but sometimes it’s just normal batteries. 90003 90002 In many of the RC toys, the radio controlled motor provides guidance while another source of power provides the locomotion.Here are some examples: 90003 90016 90017 A model airplane often has a small gas-powered engine to turn the propeller; the RC motor controls the flaps. 90020 90017 A sailboat uses the wind for propulsion; the RC motor controls the rudder. 90020 90017 A blimp uses helium or hot air for lift; the RC motors control small propellers. 90020 90033 90002 Now let’s take a closer look at each of the main components. 90003 .90000 How Do Self-Driving Cars Work? 90001 90002 Where are all the self-driving cars at? That’s what you’re probably saying to yourself after many large tech and automotive companies forecasted that by next year, in 2020 року, fully autonomous tech would be rolled out in many automobile fleets. 90003 90002 While that “deadline” looks like it will not be being met, self-driving and autonomous technologies have made significant strides in the last several years. Just recently, an autonomous semi-truck completed a trip across the U.S. with no issue. 90003 90002 Tesla’s autopilot system has by far been the highlight of self-driving tech, and it has been in the spotlight since the beginning. Tesla has the first-mover advantage, having reinvented how an automobile company is structured and functions. In the last year, Tesla’s autopilot system has clocked over 90007 2 billion miles 90008 of use. 90003 90002 That’s a significant amount of miles, with very few accidents, compared to human drivers. 90003 90002 With the technology still advancing, perhaps still in its infancy, what is self-driving technology, and how do cars equipped with it work? 90003 90014 What are self-driving cars? 90015 90002 The terms self-driving and autonomous are used fairly interchangeably, and they essentially are.Autonomous is more general, whereas self-driving only relates to vehicles. In the case of cars though, those technicalities do not matter. 90003 90002 Self-driving cars rely on hardware and software to drive down the road without user input. The hardware collects the data; the software organizes and compiles it. On the software side, the input data will normally be processed through machine learning algorithms or complex lines of code that have been trained in real-world scenarios. It’s this machine learning technology that is at the center of self-driving technology.90003 90002 As more and more data is processed through autonomous self-driving algorithms, they only get better and better-smarter and smarter. Machine learning algorithms can essentially teach themselves how to function, assuming they’ve been given the right constraints and goals. 90003 90002 90023 90024 90003 90014 Autonomous vehicle levels 90015 90002 When we think of autonomous or self-driving vehicles, we probably think of a car or semi that can drive itself completely without a human.While this is autonomous, it does not tell the whole story. That “fully autonomous” scenario represents a level 90007 5 autonomous 90008 vehicle, levels 90007 0 through 5 90008 represent the full spectrum of driving, from fully human, 90007 to 5 90008, fully computer. 90003 90002 Take a look at the helpful infographic below to visualize these 90007 5 different 90008 levels of automation. 90003 90040 Source: The Simple Dollar 90041 90002 To explain each detail in more concrete text, we’ve laid them all out below.90003 90002 90007 Level 0: 90008 The driver completely controls the vehicle at all times. 90003 90002 90007 Level 1: 90008 Individual vehicle controls are automated, such as electronic stability control or automatic braking. 90003 90002 90007 Level 2 90008: At least two controls can be automated in unison, such as adaptive cruise control in combination with lane-keeping. 90003 90002 90007 Level 3: 90008 90007 75% automation 90008. The driver can fully cede control of all safety-critical functions in certain conditions.The car senses when conditions require the driver to retake control and provides a “sufficiently comfortable transition time” for the driver to do so. 90003 90002 90007 Level 4: 90008 The vehicle performs all safety-critical functions for the entire trip, with the driver not expected to control the vehicle at any time. 90003 90002 90007 Level 5: 90008 The vehicle includes humans only as passengers, no human interaction is needed or possible. 90003 90002 90007 RELATED: UBER PUTS SELF-DRIVING CARS BACK TO WORK – BUT WITH HUMAN DRIVERS 90008 90003 90014 What technologies are inside self-driving cars? 90015 90002 Self-driving cars include a significant amount of technology in them.The hardware inside these cars has stayed fairly consistent, but the software behind the cars is constantly changing and being updated. Looking at some of the primary technologies, we have: 90003 90014 Cameras 90015 90002 Elon Musk has famously claimed that cameras are the only sensor technology needed for self-driving cars, we just need the algorithms to be able to fully comprehend the images they receive. Camera images capture everything needed for a car to drive, it’s just that we’re still developing new ways for computers to process the visual data and translate it into 3D actionable data.90003 90002 Teslas have 90007 8 external-facing 90008 cameras to help them understand the world around them. 90003 90014 Radar 90015 90002 Radar is one of the primary means that self-driving cars utilize to “see” along with LiDar, and computer imagery and cameras. Radar is the lowest resolution of the three, but it can see through adverse weather conditions, unlike LiDAR, which is light-based. Radar, on the other hand, is radio wave-based, meaning that it can propagate through things like rain or snow.90003 90014 LiDAR 90015 90002 LiDAR sensors are what you’ll see on top of self-driving cars spinning around. These sensors shoot out light and use the feedback to generate a highly-detailed 3D map of its surrounding area. 90003 90002 LiDAR is very high resolution, compared to RADAR, but as we mentioned above, it has limitations in low-visibility weather due to it being light-based. 90003 90014 Other sensors 90015 90002 Self-driving cars will also utilize traditional GPS tracking, along with ultrasonic sensors and inertial sensors to gain a full picture of what the car is doing as well as what’s occurring around it.In the realm of machine learning and self-driving technology, the more data collected, the better. 90003 90014 Computer Power 90015 90002 All self-driving cars, and essentially all modern cars, require a computer on-board to process everything happening with the vehicle in real-time. 90003 90002 Self-driving cars require extreme processing power, so rather than traditional CPUs, they utilize graphical processing units, or GPUs, to do their calculation. However, even the best GPUs have started to prove insufficient for the needs of the extreme data processing seen in self-driving vehicles, so Tesla has introduced a neural network accelerator chip, or NNA.These NNAs have extreme processing power in real-time, capable of handling real-time image processing. 90003 90002 For a perspective between CPUs, GPUs, and NNAs, this is how many giga operations per second they can handle, or GOPS: 90003 90108 90109 90040 90007 CPU: 90008 1.5 90041 90114 90109 90040 90007 GPU: 90008 17 90041 90114 90109 90040 90007 NNA: 90008 2100 90041 90114 90127 90002 NNAs are the clear winner, by many many times. 90003 90014 The future of autonomous and self-driving vehicles 90015 90002 Roughly 90007 93% 90008 of all car accidents are due to human error.While much of society is resistant to the idea of ​​self-driving cars, the simple fact of the matter is that they’re already safer than human drivers. Self-driving vehicles, when fully tested and built out, have the potential to revolutionize our travel infrastructure. 90003 90002 It will still be some time before we see level 90007 5 autonomy 90008 implemented in cars on the road, but for now, 90007 level 2 90008 is reaching commonplace in modern automobiles. The next levels will be upon us soon.90003 90002 If you want to see some of what we discussed in this article and more in visual, animated, infographic form, take a look at the infographic from 90040 The Simple Dollar 90041 below. 90003 90040 Source: The Simple Dollar 90041 .90000 The Ethics of Autonomous Cars, Self-Driving and the Trolley Problem 90001 90002 Over the past several years, more and more autonomous features have been embedded in cars. And just a couple of months back, Tesla released the following video in which it boasted about having achieved “Full Self-Driving.” 90003 90002 A Techopedia article reported that even earlier Tesla cars contained “the necessary hardware for autonomous driving,” though activating the ability depended on a software update.The article also envisioned the difference between the way autonomous cars built today will differ from the ones in the future. 90003 90002 Currently, Tesla cars are equipped with the necessary hardware for autonomous driving, but software updates are required to fully enable the feature. While it will allow fully autonomous driving, it will also still allow the human driver to take control when the situation calls for intervention. 90003 90002 The next generation of autonomous vehicles, however, would not need steering wheels, pedals or transmissions.The advantage of such cars is the possibility of reducing accidents and providing necessary transportation for people who are incapable of driving like the elderly or those with vision or physical disabilities. 90003 90002 But there is also a potential downside: the necessity for the human agency that sets up the car’s programming to foresee all possible scenarios and to direct the car to make the kind of judgements people have to when the scenario calls for action that will inevitably cause some form of harm.90003 90002 90002 90014 90015 90003 90003 90002 90003 90002 While Tesla may be the most famous name on the AI ​​front for vehicles, it certainly is not the only player in this growing market. Some far more venerable names in the industry have also gotten into the act. 90003 90002 90023 RELATED: THE INTERESTING HISTORY OF ELECTRIC CARS 90024 90003 90002 Bernard Marr recently wrote about Toyota’s billion dollar investment in self-driving cars and AI. The company has set goals for itself that it wants to reach by 2020: 90003 90028 “Through Toyota’s investments in tech start-ups such as Perceptive Automata it hopes to create the technology to allow autonomous vehicles more human-like intuition when they are on the road more similar to how human drivers interact with pedestrians.”90029 90030 Self-driving safety track record 90031 90002 Of course, we’re not there yet. But the question is if that is the end goal and if it is something that we should pursue without full considerations of the ramifications of a fully independent car. 90003 90002 Every Single Self-Driving Car Accident And Death lists nine accidents involving autonomous vehicles, only four of which caused fatalities. Despite the claims of the title, though, the list is incomplete, as there have been fatalities from such accidents after the article was published.90003 90002 The last fatality it reported was the one involving a Tesla Model X on March 23, 2018. The driver of the car died when it hit a highway barrier. Tesla blamed it on the barrier’s interference with the autonomous driving system of the vehicle: 90003 90002 “The reason this crash was so severe is because the crash attenuator, a highway safety barrier which is designed to reduce the impact into a concrete lane divider, had been crushed in a prior accident without being replaced,” Tesla said in its statement.90003 90002 The company added: “We have never seen this level of damage to a Model X in any other crash.” 90003 90002 Unfortunately, though, that was not the end of fatal crashes for Tesla’s self-driving cars. A number of them occurred this year. 90003 90002 Among the incidents was one on March 1, 2019. It’s been confirmed by the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) that the semi-autonomous Autopilot software was engaged on a Tesla Model 3 when it slammed into a tractor-trailer attempting to cross a Florida highway and the car driver was killed.90003 90002 Though they are still relatively rare, compared to the car accidents caused by human drivers, the fact that there are any accidents and fatalities caused by self-driving cars have made people concerned about their safety and programming. In fact, this year Quartz cast some doubt about Tesla’s safety claims. 90003 90002 Like that Tesla accident, most autonomous car accidents result in the death of the person sitting in the driver’s seat. However, there have been cases of people outside the car struck and killed by autonomous cars.90003 90002 The most infamous incident of that sort may be the one involving Uber in the March 2018 death of Elaine Herzberg. The 49-year-old woman was walking and pushing her bicycle across the Mille Avenue in Tempe, Arizona when the Uber car struck her. 90003 90002 You can see the video of the incident released by the police here: 90003 90002 90055 90015 90003 90002 As a result of that, Uber adopted a policy of making sure to include human drivers in its cars. The story was reported here: Uber Puts Self-Driving Cars Back to Work but With Human Drivers.90003 90002 This is a way for Uber to circumvent the problem that we will have to confront, if and when fully autonomous cars become the norm: how to program them to incorporate the instinct to preserve human life. 90003 90030 Programming AI with concern for ethics 90031 90002 As we saw in another article, Our Brave New World: Why the Advance of AI Raises Ethical Concerns, with the great power of AI comes great responsibility, to ascertain that technology does not end up making situations worse in the name of progress.The study of ethics for AI has captured the attention of people who think about what needs to be done ahead of implementing automated solutions. 90003 90002 One of those people is Paul Thagard, Ph.D., a Canadian philosopher, and cognitive scientist brought up some of the issues we have to now confront with respect to programming ethics into AI in How to Build Ethical Artificial Intelligence. 90003 90002 He raises the following 3 obstacles: 90003 90070 90071 Ethical theories are highly controversial.Some people prefer ethical principles established by religious texts such as the Bible or the Quran. Philosophers argue about whether ethics should be based on rights and duties, on the greatest good for the greatest number of people, or on acting virtuously. 90072 90071 Acting ethically requires satisfying moral values, but there is no agreement about which values ​​are appropriate or even about what values ​​are. Without an account of the appropriate values ​​that people use when they act ethically, it is impossible to align the values ​​of AI systems with those of humans.90072 90071 To build an AI system that behaves ethically, ideas about values ​​and right and wrong need to be made sufficiently precise that they can be implemented in algorithms, but precision and algorithms are sorely lacking in current ethical deliberations. 90072 90077 90002 Thagard does offer an approach to overcome those challenges, he says, and references his book, 90079 Natural Philosophy: From Social Brains to Knowledge, Reality, Morality, and Beauty 90080. However, in the course of the article, he does not offer a solution that specifically addresses self-driving car programming.90003 90030 Self-driving cars and the Trolley Problem 90031 90002 Ideally, drivers avoid hitting anything or anyone. But it is possible to find oneself in a situation in which it is impossible to avoid a collision, and the only choice is which person or people to hit. 90003 90002 This ethical dilemma is what is known as the Trolley Problem, which, like the trolley itself, goes back over a century. It’s generally presented as follows: 90003 90002 You see a runaway trolley moving toward five tied-up (or otherwise incapacitated) people lying on the tracks.You are standing next to a lever that controls a switch. If you pull the lever, the trolley will be redirected onto a side track, and the five people on the main track will be saved. However, there is a single person lying on the side track. 90003 90002 You have two options: 90003 90070 90071 Do nothing and allow the trolley to kill the five people on the main track; 90072 90071 Pull the lever, diverting the trolley onto the side track where it will kill one person. 90072 90077 90002 Of course, there is no really good choice here.The question is which one is the lesser of two bad options. It was just this kind of a dilemma that the Green Goblin presented Spiderman in the 2002 movie, attempting to force him to choose between rescuing a cable-car full of children or the woman he loves: 90003 90002 90101 90015 90003 90002 Being a superhero, Spiderman was able to to use his web-spinning abilities and strength to save both. But sometimes even superheroes have to make a tragic choice, as was the case in the 2008 film 90079 The Dark Knight 90080 in which Batman’s choice was to leave the woman he loved in the building that exploded.90003 90002 So even those who have superior abilities can not always save everyone, and the same situation can apply to AI-enabled cars. 90003 90002 The question then is: Which code of ethics do we apply to program them to make such choices? 90003 90030 What should the self-driving car do? 90031 90002 MIT Technology Review drew attention to some researchers working on formulating the answers a few years ago in How to Help Self-Driving Cars Make Ethical Decisions. Among the researchers in the field is Chris Gerdes, a professor at Stanford University who has been looking into “the ethical dilemmas that may arise when vehicle self-driving is deployed in the real world.”90003 90002 He offered a simpler choice: that of dealing with a child running into the street, which forces the car to hit something but allows it to choose between the child and a van on the road. For a human that should be a no-brainer that protecting the child is more important than protecting the van or the autonomous car itself. 90003 90002 But what would the AI ​​think? And what about the passengers in the vehicle who may end up sustaining some injuries from such a collision? 90003 90002 Gerdes observed, “These are very tough decisions that those that design control algorithms for automated vehicles face every day.”90003 90002 The article also quotes Adriano Alessandrini, a researcher working on automated vehicles at the University de Roma La Sapienza, in Italy who has served as head for the Italian portion of the European-based CityMobil2 project to test automated transit vehicle. See the video about it below: 90003 90002 90002 90126 90015 90003 90003 90002 She encapsulated the Trolley problem for drivers and self-driving cars in this summation: 90003 90028 “You might see something in your path, and you decide to change lanes, and as you do, something else is in that lane.So this is an ethical dilemma. ” 90029 90002 Another prominent expert in the field is Patrick Lin, a professor of philosophy at Cal Poly, that Geerdes has worked with. Lin’s TED-Ed take on the ethical problems in programming self-driving cars to make life or death decisions, is presented as a thought experiment in this video: 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 If we were driving that boxed in car in manual mode, whichever way we’d react would be understood as just that, a reaction, not a deliberate decision, “Lin says in the video.Accordingly, it would be understood to be “an instinctual panicked move with no forethought or malice.” 90003 90002 The very real possibility of deaths occurring as a result not of a malfunction but as a result of the cars following their programming is what makes it so important to think ahead about how to handle what Lin describes as “a targeting algorithm of sorts.” 90003 90002 He explains that such programs would be “systematically favoring or discriminating against a certain type of object to crash into.”90003 90002 As a result, those in “the target vehicles will suffer the negative consequences of this algorithm through no fault of their own.” 90003 90002 He does not offer a solution to this problem but it’s a warning that we do have to think about how we are going to handle it: 90003 90002 “Spotting these moral hairpin turns now will help us maneuver the unfamiliar road of technology ethics, and allow us to cruise confidently and conscientiously into our brave new future.” 90003 90002 That will likely prove an even bigger challenge to navigate than the roads the autonomous vehicles have to drive on.90003 .90000 Do not Allow Your Life To Be Controlled by These 5 Things (Inspiring) 90001 90002 Download or Stream Now on 90003 iTunes 90004, 90003 Spotify 90004, 90003 GooglePlay 90004, 90003 Apple Music 90004, 90003 Worldwide MP3 90004 and 90003 AmazonMP3 90004 90015 90002 90017 Do not Allow Your Life To Be Controlled By These 5 Things (Inspiring Speech) Watch FREE On Youtube: 90018 90019 90020 90021 90019 Speaker: Josiah Ruff 90015 90024 90003 Transcript – Do not Allow Your Life To Be Controlled By These 5 Things (Inspiring Speech) 90004 90027 90002 Do not allow yourself to be controlled by these 5 things.90015 90002 Many people spend their life, at the mercy of circumstances. Living at the mercy of what happens to them. Living at the mercy of other people. NOT living in the present, because they are stuck in the prison of their past. 90015 90002 If you want to live a GREAT life, do not allow yourself to be controlled by any of these things. 90015 90002 90003 NUMBER 1 – Your PAST. 90019 NUMBER 2 – Other peoples opinions and judgements 90019 NUMBER 3 – LIMITED BELIEFS you project on yourself.90019 NUMBER 4 – Relationships, and 90019 NUMBER 5 – MONEY. 90004 90015 90002 Do not allow your past to control your PRESENT or your FUTURE. Whatever happened, you must let it go. 90019 Leave the pain of your past behind … so it can not ruin your future. 90015 90002 Leave the darkness of your past behind so it can not block the light of your bright future. 90019 Your past is gone. Whatever happened, whether unjust, cruel, harsh, whatever the case, reliving the events will never do you any good.If someone did you wrong, the ONLY WAY you can win, is if you let go and move on. If you live in hate, they win. If you live in the victim story, they win. If YOU want to win, you must focus on building your future, and start right now. 90015 90002 Release that weight from your back so you can be free. Do not allow events of the past, which are now gone, to ruin this moment, which is perfect – this moment which is now to enjoy, which is ready for you to LIVE FULLY. Your past does not equal your future.90015 90002 Do not allow other people’s opinions and judgements to control the direction of your life. The need to fit in and feel wanted can cause you to travel down paths you do not want to travel. People pleasing is a curse that should be avoided at all costs. Before you do anything, ask yourself: Am I doing this because I want to do it? … or because of my fear of judgement from others if I do not do it. 90015 90002 You were born unique for a reason, you were born to stand out, to be appreciated and loved for WHO YOU ARE.Do not dim your light so you fit into the dull background of other people’s life. Shine bright AS YOU ARE, those who really care for you will see that light and shine with you. 90015 90002 Do not allow your life to be controlled by your own limited beliefs. NOW, a warning with this one. These beliefs may be conscious, but more than likely they will be unconscious. They may be unconscious limitations that have been conditioned from a young age and throughout your entire life, by listening to those around you who never reached for their own dream.Notice your limited beliefs and tell them to shut up. 90015 90002 There is NOTHING you can not do, NOTHING you can not have, and as this UNIVERSE is my witness there is NO ONE you can not become if you believe in yourself! If you believe anything is possible, guess what, anything IS POSSIBLE! When you change your belief from limited to unlimited …. Your potential is unlimited. 90015 90002 Imagine what you could achieve if you lived your life as though ANYTHING is possible. As though MIRACLES are a standard requirement of every day.As the saying goes: 90015 90060 90002 “When there is no enemy within, the enemy outside can do you no harm” 90015 90063 90002 When you have nothing inside holding you back, there is nothing outside that can hold you back either. Your entire life will change the very instant you decide to change your mindset. The instant you decide to see everything as a gift. When you DECIDE to see every circumstance and challenge as a blessing rather than a curse. When you become conscious to the fact that everything is as it should be, and fighting WHAT IS, is insane.90015 90002 Relationships. A touchy subject. But, if you are always needing another to be happy, to feel complete, then you are always one moment away from a breakdown if that person leaves, or unhappiness if the relationship is not going well. 90015 90002 I am not suggesting to avoid relationships. There is no force on this earth greater than LOVE and connection. I am talking about those who can not LIVE if they are not in a relationship. Those who will be with just about anyone, including all the wrong ones, just to avoid spending a moment being single.90015 90002 What I AM saying, is to develop enough mental strength that you get to a point where you do not need others to make you happy. You are just as happy being alone, as you are in a relationship. 90015 90002 This is what controls the majority of humans on the planet. Can you guess what it is? … MONEY! 90015 90002 This does not mean you should not want abundance. It does not mean money is evil. You know as well as I do what great things you can do, and people you can help with money. What this means is, do not allow your decisions to be controlled by money.90015 90002 If you are choosing something ONLY on the factor of how much money is involved, you’ve just made the wrong decision. What you will find, is that when you follow your heart, and you lead with your intention to SERVE others, to give your best to others – EVERY SINGLE TIME, when you follow your intuition and truly GIVE from your soul – then, the money will come, and it will come in far greater amounts than if you simply chase money for the sake of chasing money. 90015 90002 So, challenge yourself to live the life you want to live.Free from being controlled by ANYTHING. Find your freedom. LIVE FULLY! 90015 90002 90081 90019 90015 90002 Find your freedom and live fully, every single day. Click to Tweet 90085 90015 .
