Robotics | Introduction
Robotics is a branch of engineering and science that includes electronics engineering, mechanical
engineering and computer science and so on. This branch deals with the design, construction, use to
control robots, sensory feedback and information processing. These are some technologies which will
replace humans and human activities in coming years. These robots are designed to be used for any
purpose but these are using in sensitive environments like bomb detection, deactivation of various
bombs etc. Robots can take any form but many of them have given the human appearance. The robots
which have taken the form of human appearance may likely to have the walk like humans, speech,
cognition and most importantly all the things a human can do. Most of the robots of today are inspired
by nature and are known as bio-inspired robots.
Robotics is that branch of engineering that deals with conception, design, operation, and manufacturing
of robots. There was an author named Issac Asimov, he said that he was the first person to give robotics
name in a short story composed in 1940’s. In that story, Issac suggested three principles about how to
guide these types of robotic machines. Later on, these three principles were given the name of Issac’s
three laws of Robotics. These three laws state that:
Robots will never harm human beings.
Robots will follow instructions given by humans with breaking law one.
Robots will protect themselves without breaking other rules.
Characteristics
There are some characteristics of robots given below:
Appearance: Robots have a physical body. They are held by the structure of their body and are moved
by their mechanical parts. Without appearance, robots will be just a software program.
Brain: Another name of brain in robots is On-board control unit. Using this robot receive information
and sends commands as output. With this control unit robot knows what to do else it’ll be just a
remote-controlled machine.
Sensors: The use of these sensors in robots is to gather info from the outside world and send it to Brain.
Basically, these sensors have circuits in them that produces the voltage in them.
