                     ROBOTICS AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (SUBJECT CODE 66)
                                                      CLASS – X

        Aims:
        1.  To develop an understanding of concepts and applications in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
        2.   To develop competencies in Robotics and AI via classroom instruction, laboratory and self-directed project-based learning
            approach.
        3.   To facilitate appreciation, understanding and application of concepts of Robotics and AI through learning and engaging in
            hands-on activities.
        4.   To instill AI-Readiness skills in students vide key concepts in AI, such as, Data, Computer Vision and Natural Language
            Processing.
        5.  To introduce the students to the concepts of AI Project Framework.
        6.  To familiarize students with computational skills (basic Python coding language).
        7.  To create awareness about ethical considerations of AI.

                                                    THEORY-100 Marks
        There will be one written paper of two hours duration carrying 100 marks and internal assessment of 100 marks.

                                                         PART I
                                                       ROBOTICS

        Note: Key concepts of Class IX need to be revised as a prerequisite.
        1.  New Age Robotic Systems
              Warehouse  Robots,  Assistant  Robots,  Smart  Homes,  Smart  Schools,  Smart  mobility,  Autonomous  Cars/Driver  Assisted
            Cars, Autonomous Drones, Robotics for Medicine and Healthcare, any other (give examples). Why NARS are relevant and
            possible. Some common examples of robotic systems such as, elevator.
        2.  From Robots to Cobots
            (i)   Difference between a machine and a robot.
                  Difference between a machine and a robot: an understanding of how a robot must continuously sense, maintain a
                certain speed and do a certain task that it is programmed to do, using examples; identification of machine/robot
                through illustrations.
            (ii)  Cobots
                Meaning of Cobots (as robotic systems with humans in the loop, emphasizing the provision for human interaction
                and a multi robot system); difference between Cobot and Robot, importance of cobots, a brief understanding of the
                progress from Robots to Cobots.
        3.  Components of Robots as a System
            (i)   Introduction to Gears.
                Use of gears in robots- transmission and amplification of force, principles of gears, types of gears, gear ratio (brief
                understanding with examples).
            (ii)  Sensors in Robotics.
                Types of Sensors based on application (Vision, tactile, temperature, range and proximity detection, motion, navigation,
                speech recognition) with examples only.
                  Classification of sensors as Internal Sensors (Position, Velocity, Acceleration and Force Sensors) and External Sensors
                (Contact type, Non-contact Type Sensors). Functions of sensors.
            (iii)  Actuators
                  Brief understanding of actuators and their application; types of actuators (linear and rotary) with examples such as
                joints and wheels.
