This document provides an overview of robotics, including definitions, key components of robots, types of robots, and the history and evolution of robotics. It defines robotics as machines programmed to perform tasks autonomously and discusses why robots are used, such as to save time, increase perfection and productivity, and reduce human risks. The document also summarizes Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics, the major components that make up robots, common types of robots like mobile, stationary, autonomous, and remote-controlled robots, as well as the pros and cons of using robots.

7. ROBOTIC HISTORY
The history and generation of robotics was consider from the
“industrial revolution” when machineries came into existence despite
of manual labour.
FIRST Use OF WORD “ROBOTICS”………..
The word robot was introduced to the public by Czech writer Karel
Capek (1890-1938) in his play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots),
published in 1920. The play begins in a factory that makes artificial
people called robots . Capek was reportedly several times a candidate
for the Nobel prize for his works .
Karel Capek (1890-1938)

8. The word "robotics", used to describe this field of study, was
coined accidentally by the Russian –born , American scientist and
science fiction writer, Isaac Asimov(1920-1992) in 1940s.
Isaac Asimov (1920-1992)

9. THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS
(ISAAC’S LAWS)
ZEROTH LAW- A robot may not injure humanity, or, through
inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
FIRST LAW- A robot may not injure a human being, or, through
inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, unless this
would violate a higher order law.
SECOND LAW- A robot must obey orders given it by human
beings, except where such orders would conflict with a higher
order law.
THIRD LAW- A robot must protect its own existence as long as
such protection does not conflict with a higher order law.

10. COMPONENTS OF ROBOT
MANIPULATOR-
Just like the human arm, the robot consists of what is called a
manipulator having several joints and links.
Robotic manipulators can be divided into two sections, each with
a different function.

11.  END-EFFECTOR-
The base of the manipulator is fixed to base support and at its
other free end, the End-effector is attached.
The End-effector is expected to perform tasks normally
performed by the palm and finger arrangements of the human
arm.

12.  THE LOCOMOTION DEVICE-
In the case of Human Beings the power for the movement of the
arm, the palm and fingers is provided by muscles. For the robot
the power for the movement (locomotion) is provided by the
motors. The motors used for providing locomotion in robots are
of three types depending on the source of energy: Electric,
Hydraulic or Pneumatic.

13.  THE CONTROLLER-
The digital computer (both the hardware and the software) acts
as a controller to the robot. The controller functions in a manner
analogous to the human brain. With the help of this controller,
the robot is able to carry out the assigned tasks. The controller
directs and controls the movement of the Manipulator and the
End-effector. In other words, the controller controls the robot.

14.  THE SENSORS-
Without the data supplied by the sense organs, the brain would
be incapable of intelligence. In other words the controller (the
computer) of the robot cannot do any meaningful task, if the
robot is not with a component analogous to the sense organs of
the human body. Thus, the fifth and the most important
component of the robot is the set of sensors. Sensors are
nothing but measuring instruments which measures quantities
such as position, velocity, force, torque, proximity, temperature,
etc.

15. TYPES OF ROBOTS
Mobile robots
Stationary robots
Autonomous robots
Remote-controlled robots
Virtual robots
The most common type of robots are:-

16. MOBILE ROBOTS-
A mobile robot is an automatic machine that is
capable of locomotion.
Mobile robots have the capability to move
around in their environment and are not fixed
to one physical location. Mobile robots can be
"autonomous" (AMR - autonomous mobile
robot) which means they are capable of
navigating an uncontrolled environment
without the need for physical or electro-
mechanical guidance devices. MANAV (2014)
India's first 3D printed humanoid robot

17. STATIONARY ROBOTS-
• These are robot that are fixed in position. They
tend to have robot arms that can move about.
They have a large-scale stationary robot arm. It
has mobile joints called ‘the wrist’, ‘the elbow’,
‘the waist’ and ‘the shoulder’.
• An advantage that stationary robots have over
mobile robots is that there is no worry of
accidentally running into furniture or, more
importantly, people. Another advantage is that
they are far less likely to lose network
connectivity (WiFi, etc) because they are
stationary and the robot will not lose its
connection as it may if it were being driven
around as a mobile telepresence robot would

18. AUTONOMOUS(self sufficient) ROBOTS-
• An autonomous robot is a robot that
performs behaviors or tasks with a high
degree of autonomy, which is particularly
desirable in fields such as spaceflight,
household maintenance (such as
cleaning), waste water treatment and
delivering goods and services.
• Some modern factory robots are
"autonomous" within the strict confines of
their direct environment. It may not be that
every degree of freedom exists in their
surrounding environment.

19. REMOTE-CONTROLLED ROBOTS-
A remote control robot is defined as
any robot that is tele-operated by a means
that does not restrict its motion with an
origin external to the device. This is often
a radio control device, cable between control
and vehicle, or an infrared controller.
A remote control robot or RCR differs from
a robot in that the RCR is always controlled
by a human and takes no positive action
autonomously.

for content creation on robots like RoboThespian
and SociBot.

22. CONCLUSION
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.
