What is Robotics?
• Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of
engineering and science that includes
mechanical engineering, electrical
engineering, computer science, and others.

• It deals with the design, construction,


operation, and use of robots.

• Robots are machines capable of carrying out a


series of actions automatically, especially by
History of Robotics
• • Ancient myths of artificial beings (e.g., Talos
in Greek mythology)
• • 1495: Leonardo da Vinci’s mechanical knight
• • 1954: First programmable robot by George
Devol
• • 1961: Unimate – first industrial robot at
General Motors
• • 21st century: Humanoids, AI-powered
robots, robotic surgery
Key Components of a Robot
• 1. **Sensors** – Perceive the environment
(e.g., cameras, proximity sensors)
• 2. **Actuators** – Movement components
like motors and servos
• 3. **Controllers** – The brain that processes
input and sends commands
• 4. **Power Supply** – Batteries or electricity
• 5. **End Effectors** – Tools attached to
robots like grippers, welders
Types of Robots
• • **Industrial Robots** – Used in
manufacturing, welding, painting
• • **Service Robots** – For domestic tasks
(e.g., vacuum robots)
• • **Medical Robots** – Assist in surgery,
diagnostics
• • **Military Robots** – Surveillance, bomb
disposal
• • **Humanoid Robots** – Mimic human
motion and interaction
Working of a Robot
• Robots operate in a loop:
• 1. **Sense** – Use sensors to gather data
• 2. **Think** – Process data via
microcontrollers or processors
• 3. **Act** – Perform physical actions

• This loop continues to allow the robot to


adapt and respond.
Applications of Robotics
• • **Manufacturing** – Automating repetitive
tasks, increasing efficiency
• • **Healthcare** – Robotic surgery,
prosthetics, rehabilitation
• • **Agriculture** – Crop monitoring,
automatic harvesting
• • **Space Exploration** – Rovers, satellites,
autonomous probes
• • **Military and Defense** – Drones, bomb-
disposal robots
Advantages of Robotics
• • High precision and repeatability
• • Can work in hazardous environments
• • Reduces human error
• • Can work continuously (24/7)
• • Increases productivity in industries
Challenges and Limitations
• • High initial investment
• • Complex programming and maintenance
• • Risk of job displacement
• • Ethical and safety concerns
• • Dependence on electricity and programming
Robotics and Artificial Intelligence
• AI enhances robots with decision-making and
learning ability.

• • **Machine Learning** – Robots learn from


data
• • **Computer Vision** – Recognize objects
and environments
• • **Natural Language Processing** –
Understand and respond to human language
• • **Autonomous Navigation** – Move and
The Future of Robotics
• • **Cobots** – Collaborative robots working
alongside humans
• • **Swarm Robotics** – Multiple robots
working as a team
• • **Soft Robotics** – Flexible, adaptable
machines
• • **Fully Autonomous Vehicles** – Self-
driving cars, drones
• • **Personal Assistant Robots** – Integrated
with smart homes
Robotics in India
• • Rapid growth in automation in
manufacturing
• • Startups in AI and robotics emerging
• • Use in agriculture and healthcare
• • Government initiatives promoting
technology (e.g., Make in India)
Conclusion
• Robotics is transforming the way we live and
work.

• With ongoing advancements in AI, materials,


and sensors, robots are becoming more
capable, intelligent, and integrated into daily
life.

• Embracing this technology responsibly can


lead to a better, safer, and more efficient
