Robotics Introduction

Robotics involves the design, construction, and use of robots to perform human tasks. Robots are used in manufacturing, medical, military, and service applications to perform dangerous, repetitive, or precise tasks. While robots increase productivity and safety, their use also presents concerns about job loss, costs, and potential unethical applications.

WHAT IS ROBOTICS?
It is a design, construction and use of
machines to perform tasks done traditionally
by human being.

WHY ROBOTICS WAS INVENTED?


It is was first used in industry to be capable of
manufacturing tasks which allowed production
with less human work.

Characteristics of robots
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.

Another name of brain in robots is


Brain &
On-board control unit. Using this robot
Program
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.
Characteristics of robots
Sensors The use of these sensors in
robots is to gather info from
the outside world and send it
to Brain.

The robots move and the parts


Actuators
with the help of these robots
move is called Actuators.
Contribution of robotics in Different industries

These days robotics are the reason why our people in our society
continue to increase productivity in terms of their daily lives,
companies, different industries and normal humans continues to
benefit in the use of robotics day by day

Currently, the role these days of robots is to take over hard and dangerous
jobs. Jobs that are repetitive and need great precision are the ones robots
are good at. There’s no room for human error in these jobs. Since robots are
machines and computer-controlled, all the calculations of each movement
are accurate.
Medicine
In the world of medicine, robots have played imperative roles. For instance,
robots help the surgeon do precise movements and work, even with shaky
hands. Robotic surgery is now being used worldwide to assist doctors
during surgical procedures.
Agriculture

The use of robots in agriculture has gained popularity over the years. Robotics help
overcome challenges and problems in farmlands. Precision agriculture, dubbed as
precision farming, is a type of farm management based on the use of various
technologies, including robots.

In farming, farmers no longer need to apply fertilizers, pesticides, and water across the
fields. Machines and robotics can do this for the farmers at accurate levels, which can
produce higher crop productivity, less runoff of chemicals into groundwater and rivers,
and increased farmer safety.
Marine

Marine robotics has improved from navigation and control algorithms for
surface and underwater vehicles. Now, robots are used to explore the oceans
at an unprecedented scale, keeping scientists and engineers safe. These
robots can also measure water pollution and the extent of coral damage in the
world’s oceans.

Robots play important roles in society. Aside from that, they make the lives of
humans easier and faster
ROBOTS IN OUR DAILY LIFE
As technology continues to develop rapidly,
robots are becoming increasingly prevalent in our
daily lives. They can be found in factories and
other industrial settings, performing dangerous or
difficult tasks for humans to do.

But robots are also starting to appear in more


mundane environments, such as homes and
hospitals.
General Benefits of Robots in Daily lives

Safety

Robots can improve safety by doing work that is especially dangerous.


They remove the worker from the hazard.

Time Saving

Many repetitive and arduous tasks can be carried out by robots, which means
We don’t have to do them. This can increase productivity and free up time for
more critical activities.
Lessens Loneliness

Artificial intelligence (AI) robotic companions can keep


people company when they’re alone, providing social
Interaction and making those who feel lonely, less likely
to become depressed.

Robotic friends can make life more fulfilling for people of all
Ages.

Less Human Errors

Robots can ensure better accuracy within the workplace


which reduces the likelihood of human error. They can help reduce mistakes
by carrying out critical tasks without humans.

ADVANTAGES
Robots can work tirelessly and quickly without
Increased getting tired, which increases productivity. They can
productivity also perform repetitive tasks with consistent quality,
which can improve efficiency and output.

Robots can perform tasks that are dangerous for


Improved safety humans, such as exploring hazardous environments
or handling hazardous materials. This reduces the
risk of injury or death for human workers.

Enhanced Robots can provide precision and accuracy that is difficult


to achieve with human hands. This is particularly
precision and important in fields such as manufacturing, where precision
accuracy is critical for producing high-quality products.
ADVANTAGES
While robots can be expensive to purchase and
Cost savings maintain, they can also reduce labor costs and
improve product quality, which leads to cost savings
for businesses in the long run.
DISADVANTAGES
Robots can be expensive to purchase and maintain, which can
High initial cost be a barrier for small businesses. The cost of implementing
robotics technology may also require significant changes to
existing infrastructure, which can add to the overall cost.

Robots are designed to perform specific tasks, which can limit


Lack of flexibility their ability to adapt to new situations. They may require
reprogramming or modifications to perform tasks outside of
their original design, which can be time-consuming and costly.

Robots can replace human workers, which can lead to job loss in
Job loss some industries. This can have a significant impact on the
workforce and the economy.
DISADVANTAGES
There are ethical concerns related to the use of robots, such as
Ethical concerns the potential for robots to cause harm or be used for unethical
purposes. There are also concerns about the impact of
robotics on privacy and data security.
