P3: Describe Roles Required to Support the Content Within the Planned Proposal

 P3: Describe Roles Required to Support the Content Within the Planned Proposal

For this unit, I have been asked to create an idea for a new technological product that has not yet been created. This is the proposal for my idea:
 
 
My new interactive media product will be created by my company, Ro-boot Technologies. The new HELP-R 5000 robots are going to be used in the public service industry. These robots will revolutionise how we support people and how we run the world. Our HELP-R 5000 robots are uniquely suited to your needs. You can select the following:

  •  Clean the environment and pick up litter
  • Help signpost the homelessness to shelters, those struggling with mental health and domestic abuse to services and offer them essential information
  • Patrol the streets and help the police combat crime by live video recording a crime and sending the GPS location to the police. They can also ring emergency services such as an ambulance if somone is severely injured
  • Can take orders at a restaurant
  • can help stock shelves or rails in retail and peform stock takes as well as retrieve items from the back that customers would want to try Can also transfer stock to different areas or tidy.
  • can read human emotion and hold conversations
  • Will have a screen so we can use the internet (with restrictions) 
  • Have an app for the owners of the robots to control whih mode it is on

 

The robots will be able to update and gain new modes that our company create via the internet. Anti-hack technology will be used to ensure that new modes (especially harmful ones that causes the robot to harm people) cannot be installed for the safety of others.  

 

 Job Roles Required To Create a Robot

There are lots of jobs available in the robotics sector. There are two main areas you need to think of when creating robots, the physical robot and its code.

 

 

 

 

Robotics engineers

Robotics engineers design and build the robots. They have to make sure that the robots are optimal for their purpose. They create prototypes and help design the robot. This allows them to see how the robot will work and if they need to change anything about the design so the robot functions better. Robotics engineers also build the robots, program/train them to give them their primary function (tell them what to do) and peform maintence if the robots need it. They also test the robot to make sure it is doing it's job/running correctly.

To become a robotics engineer, you will need to have completed A level maths, physics and engineering. Employers will want you to have a batchelors degree in an engineering specialism (electronic engineering, mechanical engineering). Having a batchelors in programming would also help you get a job in the sector. The UK average salary for being a robotics engineer (as stated by the National Careers Service UK government website) is £27,500 to £55,500 with around 37-40 hours a week. You are more likely to be doing 9-5 hours for this career path.

 

 Programmers/Software Engineers

 Since robots are still basically computers, programmers are an obvious job role in the sector. In this job role, programmers will write the code for the robot using programming languages. They will then execute the code and test how the robot runs the code. They will mke sure the robot is running smoothly. Programmers must have very good attention to detail and problem solving skillls since one incorrect line of code can result in an error for the entire code.

To become a robotics programmer, you A levels in maths, physics and computer science. You are going to need a university degree in computer science/programming, IT or a specialised robotics programming degree. Programmers earn on average between £24,000 and £70,000 and usually around 37-40 hours weekly.

 

 Robotics Technicians

Robotic Technicians will help build and maintain the physical state of the robots. They work closely with the robotics engineers. In addition, they will help test the robot, analyse its working condition and troubleshoot robots if needed.For this job, you re going to need a university degree in electrical and mechanical engineering. On average, they earn between £24,000 and £43,000 while working around 40 hours weekly.


AI Engineers

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly advancing. Robots use AI to help them read their surroundings and interact with us without our input. AI engineers will work more closely with robotics programmers to help develop the AI code for the robot. They will also create AI prototypes. test the robot and train it to have AI. You will need to have a university degree in one of the fields: computer science, data analytics, software development.



How These Jobs Relate To My Proposal

In conclusion, Robotics engineers will need to build my HELP-R 5000 robots and make sure that they are built to fit the many different purposes. My robot will assist in many different public sectors so they will need to be suitable for different environments and jobs. This is why I believe that my robot should have human like hands to help it do many jobs we can do. The programmers will help me to create the different modes of the robots. As I mentioned in my proposal above, my robot will have lots of different modes and purposes and the software engineers will help me create the modes for this. The robot technicians will make sure that my robots are working correctly. They could also be called by companies that have purchased the robots to help keep up maintenence. The AI engineers will ensure that my robot can talk to us in a helpful manner. The robot must show compassion and understanding when people come to them or help with their problems (homelessness, mental health issues, domestic abuse etc) so the AI engineers will make sure the robots do not become aggressive,
