Computer Science A problem with using a production system to control robots is the Qualification Problem – trying to predict all of the things in the environment that can prevent the robot from successfully completing the task and developing actions the robot can execute in order to complete the task. A friend of mine used to maintain the robots for the paintshop at GM. One of their problems was making sure the robots were all using the same colour of paint on the car. The paint was manually loaded into reservoirs by humans and occasionally the wrong colour paint was loaded (by mistake or on purpose). Sometimes the vehicles came off the production line as car of many colours. a. Excluding the loading of the wrong colour mentioned above, what are five external events that could cause these robots to stop their task or do the task incorrectly? Is it possible for the robot to solve each problem without human intervention? If so, how? - if not, why not? b. People used to do this job. What are five reasons why car companies use robots to paint cars now?
