Applications of Robotics Technology
Robotics technology, lending itself to myriad applications, integrates mechanical engineering, electronics, and computer science to create machines (robots) capable of performing physical tasks with high precision and speed.
The Concept
It is based on the "Sense-Think-Act" paradigm, where sensors gather data, processors make decisions, and actuators perform physical movements.
Robotics: Technology at Work
- Perception (Sensing): Robots use sensors like LiDAR, cameras, and ultrasonic sensors to perceive their surroundings and detect objects.
- Processing (Control): A central controller (the "brain") processes sensor data and runs algorithms to determine the next set of movements.
- Actuation (Movement): Motors, hydraulic cylinders, or pneumatic valves (actuators) move the ....
