Artificial Intelligence Artificial Intelligence is a broad subject, which demands an equal understanding in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Psychology. More specifically, Mechanical Engineering governs the way that a robot would physically interact with its surroundings. Electrical Engineering is incorporated by using sensors such as voice recognition circuits, or light sensors to give input to the "brain" of the robot. When this input is received by the brain, high level computer programs take the information and "decide" upon what reaction would best fit the given circumstances (Brooks, 1999). It is at this point that the field of Psychology comes into play. The cycle mentioned above requires that researchers of Artificial Intelligence have a basic knowledge of stimulus and response, reasoning, problem solving, cognition, perception, and finally consciousness and thought. Artificial Intelligence, or simply A.I., is defined as "the field of research that attempts to emulate human intelligence in a...
