Varieties and uses of robots
Autonomous mobile robots
Used to transport material around large areas
these are self-guided robots which can learn how to navigate independently throught a zone as well as to load and unload materials
Humanoids
Complex sophisticated engineering achievements which can replicate human behaviour.
In the future they may have applications in healthcare providing company and assistance to eldery or disabled people
Remote-control robots
Robots that can be control at distance by a human
They are used by the military to deal with unexploded bombs
by space scientists to carry out tasks in space and by surgeons to perform delicate operations
by surgeons to perform delicate operations
The magnification of the image and the precise movements of the robotic arm offer significant advantages
Industrial robots
Controlled by computers they carry out highly repetitive tasks in factories and industries
The majority of industrial robots are stationary and consist of one or more moveable arms
They provide greater accuracy, reliability, speed and endurance
Appliance robots
Used in the home to carry out very specific tasks without human control
They can move independently around a designated area and use sensors to avoid obstacles and control their work
