About Lesson
A robot is a versatile machine equipped with sensors and actuators. These components allow robots to perform specific tasks based on programming.
-
Sensors: These devices enable robots to perceive their environment. Cameras, microphones, and touch sensors collect information.
-
Actuators: These “muscles” execute physical actions. Motors, servos, and grippers move the robot.
-
Programming: Robots follow sequences of actions. Think of it as giving instructions to the robot.
-
Real-World Applications:
- Industrial Robots: Used in manufacturing and assembly lines.
- Autonomous Vehicles: Self-driving cars and drones.
- Service Robots: Vacuum cleaners, delivery bots, etc.
- Medical Robots: Surgical assistance, rehabilitation.
- Agricultural Robots: Planting, harvesting, monitoring crops.
- Social Robots: Designed for human interaction.
-
AI and Robotics: Fields like computer vision, natural language processing (NLP), and machine learning play a crucial role in robotics.
Remember, whether it’s a mechanical arm or an AI-powered chatbot, they’re all part of the exciting world of robotics!
