Abstract
The general principles of cybernetics of various orders were formulated half a century ago. However, these principles were used primarily in philosophy, sociology, biology, economics and similar fields that can be called humanitarian. Engineering specialists practically did not use these principles in their work. In this article, an attempt is made to consider and formulate these principles, in the tasks of controlling robotic systems, in terms of cybernetics of the first, second and third orders. A new principle of classification of robotic systems is proposed, which is based on linking to generations of cyberneticians. It should be noted that the proposed principle can be extended to other areas of engineering and technical fields, for example, cognitive architectures, artificial neural networks, or genetic algorithms.
Introduction
Division into "orders" in cybernetics, which in its most general form can be defined as the science of systems control, which is based on the processing of information about their state. This is a very conventional definition, but it allows us to highlight the main features of the subject of research and the means used for this
