This document provides an overview of robotics, including definitions, components of robots, laws of robotics, applications, and the future of robotics. It defines robotics as the science of designing or building robots and their applications. Robots have three main components - a brain (computer), actuators and mechanical parts, and sensors. Isaac Asimov created three laws of robotics focusing on not harming humans. The future of robotics predicts that robots will play an increasing role in society by performing dangerous, repetitive, costly, or precise tasks.
