The document discusses robotics, including the history and definition of robots. It outlines the three laws of robotics proposed by Isaac Asimov - that a robot may not injure a human, must obey human orders except where it conflicts with the first law, and must protect its own existence as long as it doesn't conflict with the other two laws. It also defines key robotics terminology, lists common robot applications and types, and describes important robot components like sensors, actuators, and interfaces that allow robots to function.

2.  In brief, “Robotics” robot designs and
applications.
 A Robot is a machine which can do a work by
itself without any human assistance.
Introduction

3. The word “Robot” comes from the word “Robota”
meaning, in Czech, forced labour,drudgery.
History

4.  1st law:
A robot may not injure a human being or through
inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
 2nd law:
A robot must obey orders given it by human beings
except where such orders would conflicts with the First
Law
 3rd law:
A robot must protect its own existence as long as
such protection does not conflict with the First or Second
Law.
Three Laws of Robotics

5.  Robot - Mechanical device that performs
human tasks, either automatically or by remote
control.

technology.
 Telerobotics - Robot that is operated remotely.
