Robotics is the branch of technology
Deals with the design, construction, operation
Majority of robots use electric motors
Robot, a mechanical or virtual agent
Combination of electronics, mechanics and software Many benefits such as creativity, design ability
HISTORY OF ROBOTICS
1927 the Maschinenmensch ("machine-human") gynoid humanoid robot
1942 science fiction writer Isaac Asimov formulated his Three Laws of Robotics.
1948 Norbert Wiener formulated the principles of cybernetics c. 420 B.C.E A wooden, steam propelled bird, which was able to fly
1495 Designs for a humanoid robot “Mechanical knight”1961 First installed industrial robot.
SOME COMPONENTS ROBOTS
Power source mostly (lead-acid) batteries are used
Electric motors brushed and brushless DC motors
Air muscles Pneumatic artificial muscles
Sensing allow robots to receive information
Vision science technology of machines that see
Manipulation objects; pick up, modify, destroy
TYPES OF ROBOTS BY APPLICATION
Industrial robots - used in an industrial manufacturing environment
Domestic or household robots - used at home.
Medical robots - used in medicine and medical institutions
Service robots - that don't fall into other types by usage Hobby and competition robots – created, Line followers, sumo-bots, robots Space & Military robots - used in space and used in military
