Resonance drives are considered with adaptive control for robotics. The use of these drives allows increasing machine's quickness several times and decreasing energy expenses simultaneously 10-50 times, Elements of artificial intellect are introduced into the drives. It has been shown that micro-controller used for adaptive control, can be also used for getting a diagnostic information on a condition of drive's components during work process. Algorithms are presented for evaluation of condition of resilient members, reduction gear, etc.
