ROBOTICS TEST STUDY GUIDE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Specifications - Answer-A detailed description of the design and
materials used to make something.
Troubleshoot - Answer-The process of locating issues and making
repairs in machinery and technical equipment.
Algorithm - Answer-A methodical, logical rule or procedure that
guarantees solving a particular problem.
Prototype - Answer-an original model on which later versions are
patterned
Robot - Answer-A machine capable of carrying out a complex series of
actions automatically
Robotics - Answer-Technology dealing with the design, construction, and
operation of robots in automation.
Sensor - Answer-A device that responds to a physical stimulus (as heat,
light, sound, pressure, magnetism, or a particular motion) and transmits
a resulting impulse (as for measurement or operating a control).
Servo - Answer-a type of motor that is only able to move 150 degrees
Automation - Answer-The use of technology to ease human labor or to
extend the mental or physical capabilities of humans.
Axes - Answer-Represents a degree of freedom on a robot.
Calibrate - Answer-The process of identifying the real geometrical
parameters in the kinematic structure of an industrial robot.
Controller - Answer-In robotics, a tiny computer that acts as the robot's
brain and contains the computer program.
Data - Answer-Facts and statistics collected together for reference or
analysis
Debug - Answer-To identify bugs or errors in computer hardware or
programs and fix them.
Design - Answer-Produce a plan, simulation or model.
