My Mercer on Mission Program would be to reduce the number of accidents caused by landmines buried all over the world with the use of robotic bomb defusal devices. I would coordinate my mission with the current Mercer on Mission program of supplying Prostheses for Amputees in Vietnam. By adding the use of Robotics to the current program, Vietnam could minimize the chances of future injuries or casualties while continuing to aid victims of landmines.
Mercer students would be tasked with creating a robotic device that could locate, mark and possibly defuse landmines. I believe this device would be similar to a remote control tank with treads to cover rugged terrain, metal detectors to identify the landmines, cameras to relay images to the controller, Robotic arms to difuse the landmine, and possibly dynamite to detonate these land mines with a controlled explosion. These robotic bomb squads would combine many fields of engineering such as mechanical, electrical and computer programming to work together to create one device. This would allow students of different aspects of engineering to work together to solve the real life danger of landmines.

These devices were used extensively throughout wartime because their high level of effectiveness at a low cost. Today these landmines are activated by unsuspecting innocent civilians causing injury and even death. As tons of these land mines were buried and forgotten, they remain a huge risk to everyone, including children. These unfortunate accidents could be prevented through the use of robotic bomb defusal with the Mercer on Mission program. A robot can detect these hidden dangers without the risk of injury or death. If a landmine is detonated by a robot, only a machine is
General Petraeus and his Leadership Approach to Mosul A Leaders Restoration of a Nation Following the invasion of Coalition Forces into Iraq in March of 2003 the Army’s 101st Airborne Division, commanded by Major General David Petraeus, found itself in the Northern Iraqi city of Mosul (Lundberg, 2008). With the invasion complete and capturing of the capitol city of Baghdad accomplished, Major General Petraeus and staff began confronting the issues and concerns of what lay ahead for the duration of the unit’s deployment (Lundberg, 2008). The development and implementation of Major General David Petraeus’ strategy to bring stability to Mosul, Iraq and surrounding areas following the 2003 invasion provides insight into his leadership approach
Background The history of the 519 was first established as a community centre for the North Jarvis Community and was used as a space for gay youth in 1976 to conduct a program controlled by the community. Additionally, The 519 became a safe haven for LGBTQ groups during 1982 when Toronto police were conducting bathhouse raids throughout the city. During the 80’s and 90 's, the 519 opened a support group for gay people of colour and requesting benefits to same-sex spouses. The 519 has partnered with many organizations throughout the years such as Toronto District School Board to disclose positive knowledge about children with queer parents, also with the city of Toronto to make sure long-term care homes are LGBTQ friendly.

Internal Validity: However, this just shows there is a relationship, but does not mean it is a causal one. We would like to deduce that New Hope’s intervention made a difference. But there may be reasons that could explain these differences. Reasons the sampling method, even initially well-thought and properly implemented did not answer through time.
As society continues to develop and makes new plans, technology in today’s world is starting to raise some questions. Patrick Lin, is a philosopher and director of the ethics emerging group at the state University in California. With the help of the university Patrick Lin wrote an essay called The Big Question: in his essay, he talks about the technologies and ideas in which many people seem to overlook today. In hopes of raising awareness about the upcoming industrial revolution of robotics. the changing of the world around us is already underway.
I would like to congratulate the Woodson Foundation, the schools district, and the NCPIE for attempting to address this problem in the Washington, D.C school district. This is a very important issue and need the upmost effort put forward. This group is past the first stage which is forming stage, the purpose of the group has been established. In this respect the group should know this and not revisit the purpose of the task they agreed to take on.

The author's purpose in writing “Robot Invasion” was to represent the effectiveness and relevance of robots in today’s society. The author is able to persuade the reader that robots are beneficial to society by stating statements such as “the robots will be able to unleash a productive boom”. This statement from the author really exemplifies the positive impact that robots have on our everyday lives by making our everyday tasks easier and having robots be the productive
The project is designed to explore new ways in which you can interact with robots and computers. "There is definitely a desire for more natural kinds of communications with computational systems as they grow in their ability to be intelligent," Ben Grosser, an assistant professor
Due to automation and robotics, around five million jobs exist with 300,000 people estimated to already be employed in industrial robotics.
Time management in the military Eddie White DI Page Time management in the military Time management is very important as any organization or individual who want to achieve his/her goals must strictly observe time. Time management requires someone to prioritize some tasks in some way; one should label some tasks as more imp01iant than others. The key factor in effective time management is usually accuracy because when you have accurate model of reality you are in a position to determine which task is more important than other. You can only realize the real gains in time management at the top but not at the bottom. Inaccurate understanding of reality can make your missions, goals and your projects to be meaningless
The government funding for computer science and engineering could profoundly influence engineers to keep researching and advancing on robotics to better help humanity flourish into the future. Many government agencies are starting to fund computer science and engineering for research on robotics advancement. According to Kumar and Kalil (2015), “In recent years, the U.S. government has created two national education and research initiatives that are particularly relevant to computer science and engineering.” These two enterprises where the National Robotics Initiative (NRI) and the Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). Also, the NRI and the CPS promote robotics in manufacturing healthcare, agriculture, and education.

The recent technological developments and military operational demands are leading to increasing levels of autonomous weapons systems Autonomous weapons have been used in military operations. There are three categories of autonomous weapons: in the loop, on the loop, or off the loop. We mainly use in the loop and on the loop because they both need humans to operate the machines. However, off the loop is fully autonomous weapons. A fully autonomous weapon is one that can independently detect and attack targets without the need for humans.
As technology and robotics progress, people continue to debate how jobs and careers could be affected. Robotic replacement might not have a negative effect , especially since it has helped our development to be able to survive. The process of the robotic development started in the industrial age. The industrial age is known for “a period in which fundamental changes
