2. INTRODUCTION

3. What is a robot?
A robot is a computer
programmable machine that can
be guided by a device
Oxford English Dictionary gives the following
definition: “A machine capable of carrying out a
complex series of actions automatically,
especially one programmable by a computer.”

4. TRENDS OF ROBOTICS
Robotics is an interdisciplinary
career, which involves the
conception/design,
construction/manufacture,
application/operation, and
deployment/use of robots.

5. TRENDS OF ROBOTICS
Robots have the potential to
improve our lives in many
ways, but it also raises some
important ethical concerns
about autonomous control.

6. TRENDS OF ROBOTICS
Adaptive and versatile, capable
of managing a variety of
activities and condition
Grasping capabilities and
manipulate different objects
with increasing dexterity
Machine learning makes robots
more intelligent and innovative

7. TRENDS OF ROBOTICS
decisions to
perform
complex
tasks with
increased
autonomy
programmed
for repetitive
or dangerous
task for
humans
educational
and research
enabling
hands-on
experience

8. TRENDS OF
ROBOTICS
Robust flexibility to
conform to unstructured
environments
help with impairments by
augmenting human
capabilities
robotics collaborate,
communicate, coordinate,
cooperate and share data

9. Classes of
robots

10. Types
of
Robots
Industrial robots are used in
factories to automate tasks
Service robots perform tasks
that are helpful to humans

11. Types of Robots
Medical robots support
vital procedures and
therapy
Military robots for
surveillance and security
purposes

12. Types of Robots
Space robots for exploration,
repairs & empirical analysis.
Humanoids are more intuitive
for cognitive engagements.

13. Functions of Robots
Automating tasks, collaboratively
Performing repetitive tasks, indefatigably
Working in dangerous environments
Interacting intuitively with humans
Exploring space with empirical analysis
Caring in health provision

14. Collaborative
Functions of
Robots
Assisting with dangerous or difficult task
Learning from adjustable behaviour
Handling hazardous duties
Communicating instructive feedback
Perform delicate procedures
Connecting Companionship

15. Repetitive Functions of Robots
Take over
routine tasks
Rehabilitating
therapy
Optimize
operations
Inspect and
detect objects
Logistics
operations
Safer, secure
and efficient

16. CONCLUSION
Work tool with innovative functions
Widespread affordability
Robocop Threat to humanity
