What is Automation?

• It was first coined in 1948, in the manufacturing sense, by Ford Motors Vice President Delmar S. Harder.
• Automation or automatic control is about the usage of various control systems for the operation of equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers, and heat treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering, and stabilization of ships, aircraft and other applications and vehicles with insignificant or reduced human involvement.
• In other words, it can also mean the use of computers to control a specific process in order to upturn consistency and efficacy thereby reducing human labor.

What is the Timeline of Automation?

 What are the major advantages of automation?

• It can replace hard physical and monotonous work such as daily routine works.
• It can be maintained and even upgraded by simple quality checks.
• Increased throughput time that is time to complete a job, therefore, increased productivity.
• Improved quality due to the replacement of humans by machines, therefore, reducing human induced errors.
• Improved reliability of processes and products by timely problem escalation and resolution if any the process or the product.
• Increased speed of production due to advancement in technology, therefore, better production time and thus higher output.
• Savings on the long-term costs of the labor and the cost of poor quality.
• Higher flexibility of skills as well as adaptation.
• In the jobs where there is a requirement of hard physical or monotonous work or dangerous environments (i.e. fire, space, volcanoes, nuclear facilities, underwater, etc.), robots can deliver better.
• Some tasks which are beyond human capabilities of size, weight, speed, endurance, such as lifting heavy machines, faster computing, weather perdition etc can be done be them efficiently.
• Open opportunities at the higher level in the development, deployment, maintenance and running of the automated processes.

What are the main disadvantages of automation?

• Security and vulnerability to hacking.
• The rise of unemployment across the manufacturing and services sectors and in the short term it would prove to be a huge challenge to the administration.
• Initial costs during the research and development may sometimes exceed the cost saved by automating the process.
• The initial capital requirement is very high and common people can’t afford it.
• The decrease in demand for human labor due to machines and intelligent robots taking over the jobs in the manufacturing and the services sectors. For example: In china, some customs officers are now robots, in Japan robots as housemaid is emerging trend.

• Automated technologies falling into the hands of the terror groups may unleash modern terror network including machine and therefore vulnerability of humans may magnify.

What are some applications of Automation in society?

Automation is playing many roles across the sectors to ease human life and make living conditions better. Some of its applications are:

• Manufacturing sector: Industrial robots have changed the game of production and now a single production line can produce multiple variants and therefore minimize the cost and optimize the timing of production.
• Health Sector: Automation of surgical instruments, health database and information on diseases of different types has led to the faster diagnosis and better drug prescription and further higher survival rates to the humans.
• Service sector: Robots are replacing to humans in the jobs across the restaurants, tourism, customs in the developed countries however it is still in nascent phase.
• Education: New kinds of tools which would be based upon the skill set and capability of the student can be developed. It can lead to education as per need, not as a directly forced medicine.

• Corruption: Automation in governance such as E-governance, in service delivery system such as E-sahyog may start an era of more transparent and good governance.
• Automated retail stores: Example – Macdonald keep robots as waiting manager, Bengaluru-based Pace Automation Ltd. has partnered with IBM to provide a cloud-based solution to help native Kirana merchants turn into e-tailers.
• Automated stores: Many supermarkets across the developed countries are going full automation to save costs.
• Automated Mining: We often hear the loss of human lives due to mining accidents. Therefore to reduce such instances people are being replaced by robots.
• Automated highway system: It’s very popular in western countries and recently our government has announced road safety policy on similar lines.
• Emerging trend is about Home automation using Internet of things where appliances are connected either by apps or by any local machine.
• Wearable devices: Next step of revolution is different kinds of devices which can monitor health 24*7*365 and even apply for medicines if required. Further, they will take care of other needs such as connectivity, exercise, education etc. Therefore all in one machine.
• Weather prediction: Natural calamities such as droughts, tsunami, floods, cyclones etc. can be predicted in advance and further early warning systems can help in reducing human and environmental loss.
• IT Automation: In judiciary may lead to faster resolution of cases and reduce justice delivery time.
• Automated patrolling: of border areas may strengthen our internal and border security and help in curbing cross-border terrorist infiltrations, human-animal-resource trafficking at the borders.
