This document is an introduction to robotics.
It describes the general structure of a robot by giving informations about hardware, software and mechanics.
These are introductions, very useful if you don't know much about robotics.

6. • Low Voltage/Current
• Analyse data and drives actuators
• Logic circuits and sensors
• Higher Voltage/Current
• Supply power to the system and the
actuators
• Transistors and relays
10. Electromechanical device that converts
the angular position or axle to an analog or digital
code.
2 types : Absolute // Incremental (most used)
Provides information processed elsewhere into
speed, distance or position.
Used in many applications that require precise
shaft unlimited
11. Provides location and time information in all weather conditions
Anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more
GPS satellites
16. • Windings with brushes
Rotor
• Permanent magnets
Stator
• Simple
• Economic
• More torque at start and at low speed
• Lower heating
• Easier to control (PWM)
• No rotor/stator contact
• Speed rotation control
Advantages
• Lower efficiency (brushes)
Cons
17. • Reduction of rotation speed
• Increase of torque
• No rotor/stator contact
• Speed rotation control
Why ?
• Gears
• Chains & sprockets
• Epicyclic …
How ?
18. • Permanent magnets
• Step depends on magnets number
Rotor
• Electromagnets
Stator
• Precise
• Fast acceleration
• Easy to keep a position
Advantages
• Jerky at low speed
• Can’t hold a high torque
Cons

35. In this convention, each homogeneous transformation Ai
is represented as a product of four basic transformations
𝜃𝑖, 𝑎𝑖, 𝑑𝑖, ∝𝑖 are parameters associated with link i and joint i.
The four parameters are given the names link length, link
twist, link offset, and joint angle
36.
37. Determined by the Jacobian of this function.
Jacobian is encountered in many aspects of robotic
manipulation: in the planning and execution of robot
trajectories, in the derivation of the dynamic
equations of motion
38.
39. A PID controller calculates an "error" value as the
difference between a measured process variable
and a desired setpoint.
The controller attempts to minimize the error in
outputs by adjusting the process control inputs.
