Robotics and AI are shaping the future, enabling machines to think, learn and act autonomously.
In this chapter, you'll explore the key components of AI robotics and learn about the application
of robotics across various industries.

INTRODUCTION TO ROBOTICS AND AI

Robotics and Artificial Intelligence are two exciting fields of technology that are shaping the way
we live, work and learn.

What is Robotics?

Robotics is a branch of science and engineering that deals with designing, building and
programming robots. A robot is a smart machine that can sense its surroundings, make decisions
and perform tasks either automatically or with some guidance. Robots are used in many areas,
such as manufacturing, medicine, agriculture, space exploration and even our homes.

What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the ability of a computer or machine to think and learn like humans.
AI allows machines to recognise patterns, solve problems and make decisions without needing
constant human instructions. Examples of AI include virtual assistants (like Siri or Alexa),
self-driving cars and recommendation systems on apps such as YouTube or Netflix.

Connection between Robotics and AI

Robotics and AI often work together.
Robotics provides the body (hardware: sensors, motors, circuits, etc.).
