This presentation provides an overview of robots and robotics. It begins with defining a robot as a programmable, self-controlled automatic machine that can function in place of humans. The presentation then covers the history of robotics from da Vinci to modern robots, different types of robots including mobile, stationary, and autonomous robots. It also discusses robotics technology and components. Recent advancements in areas like artificial legs and neural networks are highlighted. In closing, advantages like ability to work continuously without pay or boredom are contrasted with limitations such as high costs and inability to think beyond programming.

Introduction
What isa Robot?
A robot can be defined as a programmable, self-
controlled ,automatic device consisting of
electronic, electrical, or mechanical units. More
generally, it is a machine that functions in place of a
living agent.
It can be used as :-
• An automatic machine sweeper
• An automatic car for a child to play with
• A machine removing mines in a war field
• In space
• In military , and many more..
Human vs Robots
Human
•Humans are Organic.
• Human can think and
have a soul.
• Humans can eat.
• Humans cannot be
programed or re-
programed and gets tired.
Robot
• Robots are made of metal
or a type of element that is
not organic
• Robots just do commands
and obey to what Humans
say.
• Robots just get oiled up,
and charged like a battery.
• Robots are programmed to
obey orders and perform
tasks repetitively without
being tired.

History& EVOLUTION OfRobotics
• 1495:
Leonardo da Vinci
1700 – 1900
Jacques de Vaucanson

• 1913: HenryFord
• 1920: Karel Capek
• 1932: Japan.Lilliput
• 1941: Isaac Asimov’s 3 Laws:
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a
human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except
where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection
does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Robotics Technology
Most industrialrobots have at least the following
five parts:
• Locomotive parts
• Power Supply
• Actuator
• Sensors
• Signal Processing Parts
• Control Parts
ASIMO
Advantages:
• Goingfar down into the unknown waters where humans would be crushed.
• Working at places 24/7 without any salary and food. Plus they don't get
bored.
• They can perform tasks faster than humans and much more consistently
and accurately.
• Industrial automated robots have the capacity to improve product quality.
• Robots increase workplace safety.
Limitations:
• People can lose jobs in factories.
• The initial investment to integrated automated robotics is high.
• They have limited duties as they will only do what is programmed and
cannot think for themselves.
• Lack of Emotions.
