Within the realm of robotics, redundant robots stand out as an advanced category characterized by an augmented number of degrees of freedom(DOF) in comparison to their non-redundant counterparts. In contrast to non-redundant robots, which possess just enough DOF for a specific task, redundant robots boast additional joints and articulations, providing notable advantages. These advantages encompass graceful obstacle navigation, heightened adaptability to dynamic environments, improved task precision and enhanced safety in collaboration with humans. 1, record 1, English, - redundant%20robot

Prenons l'exemple d'un robot de manutention qui tient un solide dans son préhenseur. Sa fonction est de placer le solide tenu dans une position géométrique quelconque par rapport au sol. Ce type de robot sera appelé robot redondant si son nombre de degrés de liberté est supérieur au nombre de degrés de liberté nécessaires et suffisants pour remplir la fonction. 2, record 1, French, - robot%20redondant

During a patrol of international waters off Pakistan, HMCS Toronto spotted a suspicious small wooden dhow(a local type of sailing vessel) with a speedboat in tow. As the Canadian frigate approached, two unidentified men immediately jumped into the speedboat, leaving the dhow abandoned with her engines running. This situation constituted a navigation hazard, and international maritime law permitted HMCS Toronto to board the abandoned vessel. Aboard the dhow, the boarding party dispatched from HMCS Toronto discovered about ninety 23-kg bags containing plastic packages of drugs stamped with the phrase "Freedom of Afghanistan.

L'équipage du NCSM Toronto effectuait une patrouille dans les eaux internationales, au large du Pakistan, lorsqu'il a aperçu un petit boutre de bois (un petit voilier arabe) qui tirait un hors-bord. Voyant que la frégate canadienne approchait, deux hommes, dont on ne connaît pas l'identité, se sont empressés de sauter à bord de la vedette, abandonnant le boutre avec les moteurs en marche. Puisque la situation constituait un danger pour la navigation, le NCSM Toronto avait le droit, en vertu du droit maritime international, d'aborder le bateau abandonné. L'équipe d'abordage a découvert à bord du boutre environ 90 sacs de 23 kg remplis d'emballages en plastique contenant de la drogue et sur lesquels était inscrite la phrase «Freedom of Afghanistan» (l'Afghanistan libre). 1, record 3, French, - %C3%A9quipe%20d%27abordage

Oppenheim states: "The term "freedom of the open sea" indicates the rule of the Law of Nations that the open sea is not, and never can be, under the sovereignty of any State whatever. Since, therefore, the open sea is not the territory of any State, no State has as a rule a right to exercise its legislation, administration, jurisdiction, or police over parts of the open sea." 1, record 5, English, - freedom%20of%20the%20open%20sea
