Logic Gates

This document discusses Boolean logic gates and provides examples of how they can be used to control machines. Boolean logic uses true/false values to represent inputs and outputs. Three examples are given of machines controlled with AND, OR, and NOT logic gates. Truth tables are provided to show the output for each combination of true/false inputs. The examples demonstrate how keys, passwords, switches, and safety sensors can be combined using Boolean logic to control whether a machine is active or stopped.

What are Boolean


operations?
Boolean logic gates are operations
with only 2 possible outcomes, true or
false (1 or 0), true being 1 and false
being 0.
