Abstract:

 

In early civilizations, technology has developed independently from philosophical ideas and scientific theorems. Different civilizations have participated in the evolution of technologies throughout history. Technological developments are elaborated by successive civilizations and transmitted with written documents. There have been many scientists who have made an extraordinary contribution to technological development.  Al-Jazari (1136-1206) was one of the scholars who were trained in this state. He was an inventor and mechanical engineer who invented ingenious inventions in robotics and control them with the hydraulic and gear systems. In addition, the crankshaft, which is the most important mechanical device after the wheel, is one of the invention with high technological significance invented by Al-Jazari. He has drawn many mechanically proper designs in his hand-written book. It is understood from this book he was one of the pioneers of cybernetics and robotics. In this study, firstly, a short description of the biography of this inventor is given and its place in the history of technology is emphasized. Then, the subject of cybernetics science was discussed. The effect of the cybernetic on the machines invented by Al-Jazari is shown here. The control of the developed robot systems is related to cybernetic philosophy and methodology. A set of ideas bearing on the self-regulation of action and emotion such as cybernetic is described. In the last chapter, the structures that form the milestones of today's technology history, from the machines invented by Al-Jazari, are discussed. Finally, information is given about why Al-Jazari was a master and pioneer in cybernetics and robotics.
