What is Robotics ?

In Today’s World we are very known about many Technologies. so, exactly what Technology means? It is a combination of our Knowledge that we put into practical use to solve problems or to invent something. The World is developing very rapidly due to growth in Technology. Various sectors like IT, Power, Chemical, Civil, Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical, Mechanical etc. have Contributed in the growth of Technology all over the World. The developed countries having the huge contribution of this sectors in their development.

With this Short intro now you all have an idea about Technology. So today let us discuss about Robotics, which is a part of Technology. Now to start with the subject let us start with the definition of robot. Now here actually what we do is we define robot as an automatic machine which is re programmable and which is multifunctional. Now these robots actually to develop we copy everything from the human being so we try to copy the hand of a human being, the head of a human being, heart of a human being in the artificial way to develop the different types of robots. Now if you see the robots are available nowadays in different forms. For example, say the robots are available in the form of manipulator.

The manipulator means it is robot with fixed base, the manipulator could be either serial manipulator or there could be parallel manipulator. The robots are also available with moving base just like the wheel robots, the multi-legged robots, the track vehicles. Now these multi-legged robots could be the 2-legged robots,4 legged robots, 6 legged robots and so on. And nowadays the drones are very popular and drone is also a special type of robot. Now to study this particular robotics actually what we will have to do is we will have to study 4 modules in robotics. The modules are the kinematics, dynamics, control scheme and intelligent issues. Now this kinematics and dynamics are coming under the umbrella of mechanical engineering. Then control scheme is coming from the electrical and electronics engineering and intelligent issues are deal in computer science.

So in short let us know about of all 4 modules

Kinematics: - it’s the branch of mechanics which describes the motion of points bodies and therefore the system of bodies without inconsiderately of the explanation of motion.

It is a study of trajectories of point lines and other geometric and their differential velocity and acceleration.

Dynamics: - it is the branch of mechanics with the study of torque and forces and their effect on motion.

Control scheme: - it allows the movement and function of the various parts of robot, as well as process a specific set of forces and motion in the presence of less errors.

Intelligent issues: - it helps us in finding a computing error related with robots like mechanical functioning, mechanical responses etc.

Now it is bit difficult to learn actually this particular subject robotics because one has to be very good in fundamentals of all these basic subjects and that is why it is bit difficult to become a real roboticist. So, we just discuss in short about robotics, if you have move in depth of this subject the please refer the following books in which there is a systematic arrangement of topics with basic to according to your difficulty wise.
