What is robotics?

• Educational toys games or apps.

• A remote control

• a servomechanism that supplies and transmits a measured amount of energy for the operation of another mechanism or system.

• the science and technology behind the design, manufacturing and application of robots.

What is a Subsystem?

• Industrial robots

• components that provide the robot with the ability to interact with its environment. One example would be a gripper.

• The off-road robot platform moves at about 5 mph

• the specific component of the robot that includes the drivetrain, control system, and the manipulators.

The best description of a 1st generation robot is ...

• A robot that works autonomously (on its own) and can learn from people to copy the task.

• A robot that can be programmed to carry out multiple tasks. These robots have sensors (tactile, proximity, radar, sonar, vision systems) that provide feedback to a controller that adjusts the robot accordingly. This reduces the need for a human operator.

• A robot that can be programmed to carry out one task. These robots have a single arm that can carry out precise movements at high speeds repeatedly for long periods of time.
