                  Robots are automatically operated machines that work in place of humans. Robotics is a branch
                  of engineering and science that deals with the design, construction and functioning of robots.

                  A robot is a type of automated machine that can execute specific tasks with little or no human
                  intervention and with speed and precision.

                                     What  if  you  could  deploy  robots  equipped with  AI  to  protect  endangered  species
                                     from poachers and habitat destruction? How would these robots patrol protected
