    • Do Dangerous Jobs: Robots can go to places that are too dangerous

                        for humans, like exploring space or deep underwater.

                        • Make Fewer Mistakes: Robots are very precise, so they make fewer
                        mistakes when building things.

                     Disadvantages

                     The disadvantages of a robot are:

                        • Expensive to Make: Robots can cost a lot of money to build and maintain.

                        • Need Repairs: Robots can break down and need fixing, which can be

                        costly and time-consuming.

                        • Cannot Think  for  Themselves:  Robots  can  only  do  what  they

                        are  programmed  to  do, so  they  cannot  solve  new  problems  on
                        their own.

                        • Take  Away Jobs: Sometimes,  robots  replace  people  in  certain  jobs,

                        which can make it harder for some to find work.

                        • Need Power: Robots need electricity or batteries to work, and they
                        stop working if they run out of power.

                     Meet the Robot Block-Based Construction Kit

                     The  Robot  Block-Based Construction Kit  is an  engaging  and  hands-on
                     tool that helps students explore building robots and machines. It comes

                     with different blocks that can be easily put together to create robots or
                     projects. While putting together the blocks, students also understands

                     how different parts of a robot work together.

                     With this kit, students will explore:

                        • Different types of movement – like how wheels spin or how robot arms
                        move.

                        • Gears – and how they help machines work smoothly.

                        • Power screw – and how it helps lift or move heavy things.

                                                                                         Introduction to Robotics  13
