Robot - ✅✅A machine that is able to interact with and respond to its environment. It is
characterized by three central capabilities: the ability to Sense, the ability to Plan, and the
ability to Act.
Actuator - ✅✅The output or source of physical motion in a robot. The large servo motor is
the main actuator.
Block programming or coding - ✅✅A type of programming software where each "block" can
be connected to another "block" in order to create a program to perform specific functions .
Behaviors - ✅✅Anything a robot "does," including both observable actions (e.g. move
forward for 10 cm) and internal actions (e.g. add 1 to a variable in the program).
Code - ✅✅General term for any command or group of commands in a program.
Computer or computation. - ✅✅The "brain" of the robot that controls the operation of the
robot by following instructions contained in a stored program.
Engineering - ✅✅The study and application of science, mathematics, and technology to find
solutions to real-world problems.
Firmware - ✅✅Software that has been permanently placed in a hardware component.
Gears - ✅✅Gears are wheels with teeth. Gears mesh together and make things turn. Gears
are used to transfer motion or power from one moving part to another.
