Study Notes
Robotics
- The field that focuses on the design and assembly of robots is known as Robotics or Robot Engineering.
Basic Parts of Robots
- Robots are typically constructed from three basic parts:
- Sensors to perceive the environment
- Actuators to interact with the environment
- Controllers to process information and make decisions
Sensors in Robots
- The function of a sensor in a robot is to gather information about the environment, such as temperature, sound, or light.
Controllers in Robots
- The role of the controller in a robot is to process information from sensors, make decisions, and send commands to the actuators.
Types of Robotic Systems
- Simple robots are distinguished from more complex robotic systems by their limited functionality and pre-programmed instructions, whereas complex systems can learn, adapt, and make decisions autonomously.
Robot Components and Functions
- Match the following robot components with their functions:
- Sensors: gather information about the environment
- Actuators: interact with the environment
- Controllers: process information and make decisions
Robot Components Descriptions
- Match the following descriptions with the correct robot components:
- Device that measures temperature: Sensor
- Device that moves the robot: Actuator
- Device that processes information: Controller
Robot Components Primary Functions
- Match the following robot components with their primary functions:
- Sensors: perceive the environment
- Actuators: interact with the environment
- Controllers: make decisions
Robotics Terminology
- Match the following terms with their definitions:
- Sensor: device that gathers information about the environment
- Actuator: device that interacts with the environment
- Controller: device that processes information and makes decisions
