    ROBOTICS: A JOURNEY                                                                    CHAPTER

                      INTO AUTOMATION                                                                       C2

                          LEARNING OUTCOMES

                         The student will be able to:
                            learn about robotics, its applications and importance.
                            identify basic components of robots.
                            understand about a circuit and its electric components.
                            understand the tinkercad circuit and its types.

                      In this chapter, we will learn about robots, circuits, and electronic components. We will design

                      a simple circuit using Tinkercad, a fun tool for building and testing circuits online. Different types
                      of circuits, such as open, closed, serial, and parallel, will be explored with real-life examples.
                      We will also study important electronic components like LEDs, resistors, and batteries used in
                      machines and robots.

                                ROBOTICS

                      Robotics  is the  study  of designing,  building,  and  using  robots to  perform different tasks.  A
                      robot is a machine that can be programmed to work on its own or be controlled by humans.
                      Robotics combines science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to create smart
                      machines.

                                APPLICATIONS OF ROBOTICS

                      Robots are used in many areas to help people do tasks more easily and quickly. Here are some
                      common places where robots are used:

                      FACTORY ROBOTS

                      Factory robots work in industries like car and electronics manufacturing. They help with welding,
                      painting, and packaging. For example, KUKA and FANUC robots are used in factories to assemble
                      products.
