5.9 Robotics

Introduction

Robotics is a combination of artificial intelligence and engineering. It involves designing, creation, and operation of automated machines programmed to perform tasks like humans. Over the years, robotics has developed sophisticated machines to assist humans in a wide range of industries all over the world.

Definition

Robotics is a branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots. A robot is a programmable machine that can perform tasks automatically or semi-automatically, often with the ability to sense its environment and make decisions.

Main Idea

Robots are used in many fields to perform tasks that are dangerous, repetitive, or require high precision. They can work alongside humans or replace them in certain tasks. The following are some applications of robotics:

• Robots in Rescue Operations
• Robots in Manufacturing Industries
• Roomba Robots
• Robots in Farming
• Robots in Space Exploration
• Robots in Healthcare
