3. Introduction to robotics
Robotics is the branch of
technology that deals with the
design, construction, operation, and
application of robots, as well as
computer systems for their control,
sensory feedback, and information
processing.

4. Throughout history, robotics has been
often seen to mimic human behavior,
and often manage tasks in a similar
fashion.
Many robots do jobs that are
hazardous to people such as defusing
bombs, mines and exploring
shipwrecks.

5. Few popular types
of robot

6. Serving to manShaking hand to
man

7. Usefulness
 Jobs which are dangerous for man.
 Cleaning the main circulating pump housing
in the nuclear power plant.
 Repetitive jobs that are boring, stressful or
labor intensive for humans.
 Menial tasks that human don’t want to do.
 Also in mining fields robots are used.

8. Industries using robotics
Automobile
Construction
Entertainment
Agriculture
Healthcare: Hospitals, research etc..
Military: demining, surveillance, attack, etc.
Manufacturing

9. Law of robotics
Asimov proposed three “Laws of Robotics”
 Law 1: A robot may not injure a human being or
through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
 Law 2: A robot must obey orders given to it by
human beings, except where such orders would conflict
with a higher order law
 Law 3: A robot must protect its own existence as
long as such protection does not conflict with a higher
order law

10. Robot is very useful for us but also sometimes it becomes
very dangerous.
 It is fully capable of harming human being because it
doesn’t know the result of any action.
Harmfulness
