    COMPONENTS OF ROBOTS

                     A robot  consists  of several important  parts that  enable  it  to  interact  with its

                     surroundings and complete tasks.

                     The main components of a robot are as follows:

                      Sensors: Used to detect inputs
                          like light, sound, touch and                    Controller: This acts  as the  robot's
                      distance and to send that data                      brain. It receives information and sends
                                     to the controller.                   commands.

                                                                                 Power Supply: Provides energy
                                                                                 (from batteries  or electricity)  to  all
                                                                                 other robot components.

                                                                                    End Effector: The part that performs
                                                                                    tasks  such  as  gripping,  cutting  or
                                                                                    painting, acting as the robot's tool.

                      Actuators: Components
                     that generate movement,
                       such as motors, pumps
                             and compressors.                                                            QR QUEST

                                       robot's components together.                       2.  What is the role of sensors?

                     Software/Programming: It is used to give instructions that tell the robot when and

                     how to act.

                     Each of these components plays a crucial role in the functionality of a robot, allowing
                     it to perform tasks autonomously and interact with its environment effectively.
