THE USE OF ROBOTS IN DIFFERENT
FIELDS

• Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design,


construction, operation, and use of robots.

• There are several fields in which robots are utilized:


• Manufacturing
• Transportation
• Healthcare
• Agriculture
• Construction
• Space Exploration
• Service Industry
• Military & Defense
AI VS ROBOTICS
AI ROBOTICS
• Focuses on creating intelligent • Primarily concerned with building
algorithms and systems that can and controlling physical machines.
perform tasks requiring human-like
• Manufacturing (industrial robots)
intelligence.
• Virtual assistants (like Siri and • Healthcare (surgical robots)
Alexa). • Exploration (space rovers)
• Recommendation systems (like
• Domestic (vacuum cleaners)
those used by Netflix and Amazon).
• Autonomous vehicles, and
predictive analytics.
COMPONENTS IN A ROBOT
MECHANICAL STRUCTURE
• Frame/Chassis: The physical body of the robot,
which supports all other components

• Joints: Movable connections between different


parts of the robot, allowing for various degrees of
freedom

• End Effectors: Tools or devices at the end of a


robotic arm, such as grippers, welding torches, or
sensors, that interact with the environment.
Actuators
• Motors: Convert electrical energy
into mechanical movement. Types
include DC motors, servo motors, and
stepper motors.

• Hydraulic Systems: Use liquid


pressure to create movement, often
used in heavy-duty robots.

• Pneumatic Systems: Use


compressed air to create movement,
common in lighter, faster
applications.
Control Systems
• Microcontrollers: Small,
dedicated computers that handle
basic tasks and control the robot's
actuators.

• Embedded Systems: More


complex than microcontrollers,
these are integrated systems that
manage multiple functions.

• Real-Time Operating Systems


(RTOS): Ensure timely processing
and response, crucial for robots
performing time-sensitive tasks.
OTHER COMPONENTS INCLUDE
• Sensors
• Power Supply
• Communication Systems
• Software & Algorithms
• Human - Robot Interference (HRI)
• Mobility Components
AI X ROBOTICS
• Computer Vision: Object recognition, facial recognition, navigation.
• Path Planning: Efficient and safe navigation paths.
• Autonomous Navigation: Real-time decision-making for self-driving cars
and drones.
• Natural Language Processing (NLP): Understanding and responding to
human language.
• Quality Control: Inspecting products for defects.
• Surgical Robots: Enhancing precision and autonomy in surgeries.
• Underwater Exploration: Mapping terrains and studying marine life.
TRIVIA!!
1. Sophia is the first humanoid robot that has been granted citizenship in Saudi
Arabia

2. The KAIST Raptor, created in Korea was seen jogging on a treadmill at 28 miles
per hour

3. Energetically Autonomous Tactical Robot (EATR) is a military robot that relies


on Biomass(dead plants and tress ) for power.

4. The first humanoid robot, Elektro was constructed between 1937-38 by


Westinghouse in Ohio, US.

5. The first legally recognized cyborg, Neil had an antenna attached to the back
of his brain which allowed him to receive signals from satellites and download
images and sounds directly in his brain
