About This Presentation
Robotics is a field that combines engineering, science, and technology to design, build, and use robots. Robots are machines that can perform tasks that humans do, or assist humans in doing so

Introduction to Robotics
Laws of Robotics The Three Laws of Robotics , formulated by science fiction writer Isaac Asimov , serve as fundamental ethical guidelines for robotic behavior : First Law : A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human to come to harm. Second Law : A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. Third Law : A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Later, Asimov introduced a Fourth Law (the " Zeroth Law"): Zeroth Law : A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
Classification of Robotics Robotics can be classified based on different criteria such as functionality, application, and structure: Based on Functionality Based on Application Based on Structure
1.Based on Functionality Industrial Robots – Used in manufacturing, assembly lines, welding, painting, etc. Service Robots – Assist humans in tasks like cleaning, security, and healthcare. Humanoid Robots – Designed to resemble and interact like humans (e.g., ASIMO, Sophia). Swarm Robots – Multiple small robots working together to complete a task. Autonomous Robots – Operate independently using AI and sensors (e.g., self-driving cars).
2. Based on Application Medical Robots – Used in surgery, rehabilitation, and prosthetics (e.g., Da Vinci Surgical System). Military & Defense Robots – Surveillance, bomb disposal, and combat (e.g., drones, UGVs). Exploration Robots – Used in space, deep-sea, and underground exploration (e.g., Mars Rovers). Agricultural Robots – Automated farming, pesticide spraying, and harvesting. Disaster Response Robots – Search and rescue operations, firefighting , and hazardous environment handling.
3. Based on Structure Wheeled Robots – Move using wheels (e.g., autonomous delivery robots). Legged Robots – Walk using legs, like quadrupeds and bipeds (e.g., Boston Dynamics' Spot). Aerial Robots (Drones) – Used for surveillance, delivery, and mapping. Underwater Robots (ROVs) – Used for deep-sea exploration and maintenance. Hybrid Robots – Combine different movement techniques for enhanced adaptability.
Applications of Robotics Manufacturing & Automation – Increase productivity and precision. Healthcare – Robotic-assisted surgery, prosthetics, rehabilitation. Space Exploration – Mars rovers, robotic arms on spacecraft. Agriculture – Automated harvesting, drone monitoring. Military & Defense – Surveillance, bomb disposal. Entertainment & Education – AI-driven robots, robotic pets.
