About Robotics.

3. A re-programmable, multifunctional, automatic industrial
machine designed to replace human in hazardous work. 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..

4. Robotics is science of designing or building an application
of robots. Simply ,Robotics may be defines as “The Study
of Robots”.The aim of robotics is to design an efficient
robot.
• Speed
• Can work in hazardous/dangerous temperature
• Can do repetitive tasks
• Can do work with accuracy

5. The history of robots has its origins in the ancient world.
The modern concept began to be developed with the onset
of the Industrial Revolution which allowed for the use of
complex mechanics and the subsequent introduction of
electricity. This made it possible to power machines with
small compact motors. In the early 20th century, the
modern formulation of a humanoid machine was
developed. Today, it is now possible to envisage human
sized robots with the capacity for near human thoughts
and movement.

6. Most industrial robots have at least the following five parts:
• Sensors
• Effectors
• Actuators
• Controllers
• & common effectors known as Arms
Many other robots also have Artificial Intelligence and
effectors that help it achieve Mobility.

7. • Mobile robots
• Rolling robots
• Stationary Robots
• Autonomous Robots
• Remote-control Robots
• Virtual Robots

8. Mobile Robots
Rolling robots have wheels to move around.They can
quickly and easily search. However they are only useful in
flat areas.
Robots on legs are usually brought in when the terrain is
rocky. Most robots have at least 4 legs; usually they have 6
or more.

9. Stationary Robots
Robots are not only used to explore areas or imitate a
human being. Most robots perform repeating tasks
without ever moving an inch. Most robots are ‘working’ in
industry settings and are stationary .
Autonomous robots are self supporting or in other words
self contained. In a way they rely on their own ‘brains’.

10. Remote-Control
Robots
A person can guide a robot by remote control. A person
can perform difficult and usually dangerous tasks without
being at the spot where the tasks are performed.
Virtual robots don’t exits In real life.Virtual robots are just
programs, building blocks of software inside a computer.

11. Advantages :
• Used to do repetitive (boring) actions or jobs
• Perform a variety of tasks
• Improve in quality
• Increase in production
• Perform dangerous tasks that humans can’t do
• Robots do not get sick, they can work 24/7 without
complaining
Disadvantages :
• People can lose jobs in factories
• It needs a supply of power
• It needs maintenance to keep it running .
• It costs money to make or buy a robot

12. Today we find most robots working for people in industries,
factories, warehouses, and laboratories. Robots are useful in
many ways. For instance, it boosts economy because
businesses need to be efficient to keep up with the industry
competition. Therefore, having robots helps business
owners to be competitive, because robots can do jobs better
and faster than humans can, e.g. robot can built, assemble a
car.Yet robots cannot perform every job; today robots roles
include assisting research and industry. Finally, as the
technology improves, there will be new ways to use robots
which will bring new hopes and new potentials.
