2. REDUCES HUMAN EFFORT
                  Robots can do hard and repetitive tasks, reducing human workload. This helps people focus on

                  creative and more important work.

                  3. IMPROVES SAFETY

                  Robots can be used in dangerous jobs, such as bomb disposal, space exploration, and working in
                  hazardous environments, keeping humans safe.


                  4. HELPS IN MEDICINE

                  Medical robots assist doctors in surgeries, patient care, and rehabilitation. They can perform
                  precise surgeries and help patients recover faster.


                  5. SUPPORTS LEARNING AND INNOVATION
                  Robotics  is an important  part  of  STEM  education (Science,  Technology,  Engineering,  and
                  Mathematics). It helps students learn coding, engineering, and problem-solving skills.


                  6. ENHANCES SPACE EXPLORATION

                  Robots like the Mars Rover help scientists explore planets where humans cannot go. They send
                  back important information about space.


                  7. IMPROVES DAILY LIFE
                  Home robots like vacuum cleaners, personal assistants, and smart security robots make life
                  easier by helping with household chores and security.




                            BASIC COMPONENTS OF ROBOTS


                  A robot is made up of different parts that help it sense, move, and think. The main components
                  of a robot are sensors, actuators, motors, and controllers.


                  SENSORS
                  Sensors act as the robot’s eyes and ears, helping it detect and understand its surroundings. They
                  collect information and send it to the robot’s controller. Examples of sensors include cameras,
                  microphones,  touch  sensors, and infrared sensors.  Sensors allow robots  to  see  objects,  hear
                  sounds, measure temperature, or detect movement.


                  ACTUATORS

                  Actuators function like muscles, allowing the robot to move and perform tasks by converting energy
                  into motion. Some common types of actuators include hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, and
                  electric actuators. Actuators help robots lift objects, move arms, open grippers, and walk.
