Introduction of robotics family and Definition-essential step to create a bot


First of all let us familiar to the Robotic and STEM.
STEM stands for Robotics, Engineering and mathematics.
A question commonly asked and generate in every one’s mind.
What is Robotics?


Machines that can walk,
talk and see invokes the kid in each one of us. Robots have always attracted hobbyists and professionals alike.
A machine behaves when it is endowed with logic to decide, interpret and react to its surroundings. In fact, it's difficult to find someone who is not fascinated by “intelligent”
machines.

Types of Robotics:-
1 Operator controlled
These robots are remotely controlled by a human. They do not require any sensor or processing unit as the human performs these functions and accordingly steers the robot.
2. Semi-autonomous
These are a hybrid of autonomous and operator-controlled robots. They may or may not need sensors. Usually, they have a processor, which works in sync with the operator, and instructs the actuators accordingly. The process of making a robot requires a process-driven approach.

3. Autonomous
These robots do not need any operator. They have sensors and processors in addition to actuators (motors). They sense the state around the robot, process the information and act accordingly. This category is, undoubtedly, the most fascinating category of robots as autonomous robots resemble living organisms and watching them move and doing things on their own, is a pleasure for hobbyists and robotics enthusiasts.


In next posts we will study step-by-step how to create a bot at home and what are the requirements.
