Study Notes

Robot Classification by Mobility

  • Stationary Robots are fixed in one location, typically used for manufacturing tasks. Examples include robotic arms and CNC machines.
  • Mobile Robots can move and are categorized into:
    • Wheeled Robots use wheels for movement, like autonomous vehicles and warehouse robots.
    • Legged Robots use legs for locomotion, like humanoid robots or quadrupeds (e.g., Boston Dynamics' Spot).
    • Tracked Robots use continuous tracks for movement, common in military reconnaissance robots or tanks.
    • Aerial Robots (e.g., drones, UAVs) use propellers or wings for flight.
    • Underwater Robots (e.g., ROVs) operate underwater.
    • Swarm Robots consist of multiple small robots cooperating together, often in research.

Robot Classification by Application

  • Industrial Robots automate manufacturing processes like assembly, packaging and welding.
  • Service Robots perform tasks for humans like cleaning (e.g., Roomba) security, or healthcare.
  • Medical Robots assist in surgeries, diagnostics, and therapy (e.g., Da Vinci Surgical System).
  • Exploration Robots are designed for extreme environments like space or underwater exploration (e.g., Mars rovers).

Robot Classification by Control System

  • Autonomous Robots operate without human intervention using sensors and algorithms. Examples include self-driving cars and robotic vacuum cleaners.
  • Semi-Autonomous Robots require some human input for operation (e.g., teleoperated drones).
  • Human-Controlled Robots are fully controlled by a human operator (e.g., remote-controlled robots).

Robot Classification by Shape and Design

  • Humanoid Robots mimic human form and behavior (e.g., ASIMO, Sophia).
  • Animal-Inspired Robots mimic animals in design and movement (e.g., robotic snakes).
  • Modular Robots are composed of multiple modules for flexibility.
  • Soft Robots are made of flexible materials, suitable for delicate tasks (e.g., gripping robots).

Robot Classification by Degree of Interaction

  • Collaborative Robots (Cobots) are designed to work alongside humans safely.
  • Independent Robots operate without human interaction.

Robot Classification by Power Source

  • Electric Robots are powered by electricity (most modern industrial robots).
  • Hydraulic Robots use hydraulic systems for movement (e.g., heavy-duty robotic arms).
  • Pneumatic Robots use compressed air for motion (e.g., lightweight robotic arms).

Additional Robot Types

  • Military Robots are used for defense, surveillance, or combat (e.g., bomb disposal robots).
  • Entertainment Robots are used in amusement and media industries.
  • Domestic Robots perform household tasks (e.g., cleaning robots).
  • Research Robots are built for experimental and educational purposes.
