    Heartlander Robot is used to deliver treatment to delicate

                     locations in the body like the heart.

                         PURE        The Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) launched in Zhuzhou, China, in 2017, is a
                         FACT        smart train system that runs on a virtual painted track instead of rail.

                     TELE-OPERATED ROBOTS

                     Tele-operated  robots are semi-autonomous  robots  designed  to  be  controlled  from a
                     distance. They can operate as an agent for humans or other programs to simulate human
                     activity. The signals to these robots can be sent through a wireless system or satellites.

                     They are used by the government for surveillance purposes, and they are also the most
                     common types of medical robots in use today.

                     Examples of Tele-operated robots are:

                                             Drone Controllers are used for surveillance purposes and detecting
                                             landmines on the battlefield.

                     WoeBot is a therapist robot designed to offer convenient care
                     to people struggling with depression by mimicking human
                     conversation and offering help and companionship to its users.

                     AUGMENTING ROBOTS

                     Augmenting robots are designed to enhance human capability or replace the abilities, a
                     human may have lost. They are used in medicines. An example of Augmenting robots is
                     the exoskeleton, which is used to lift heavy objects. A paralysed man walks with the help
                     of a mind-controlled exoskeleton. A prosthetic limb, or artificial limb, is also an example.

                                                                                                  Categories of Robots   113
