                        1.  Have you used a voice assistant like Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant? What did you ask it to                        A robot  consists  of several important  parts that  enable  it  to  interact  with its

                                                                                                                                                surroundings and complete tasks.
                        2.  Do you remember what a machine or robot needs to work properly?
                                                                                                                                                The main components of a robot are as follows:

                      A robot is a machine that can be programmed to do tasks on its own. Robots can

                      be small, like the ones that clean floors or very big, like the ones that build cars in
                      factories. Some robots can move, talk and solve simple problems. People create
                      robots to help with jobs that are too hard, boring or unsafe for humans.                                                                                                                  End Effector: The part that performs
