ROBOTS

            Robots come in many shapes and sizes to carry out tasks in almost all sectors of life. Let
            us now discuss the types of robots which are divided into five categories.




                     CATEGORIES OF ROBOTS

            Robots are mainly classified into three categories. Let's learn about them.


            PRE-PROGRAMMED ROBOTS
            Pre-programmed robots are designed to work in a controlled environment. They are

            used in:

            1.   repetitive tasks that are considered boring because of their repetitive nature or too
               dangerous to be done by humans.
            2.   situations where the task requires a high level of accuracy.
            3. large-scale industries and also in the field of medicine.


            Examples of pre-programmed robots are:






                                         Mechanical arms are used for welding doors or fixing engine
                                         parts.






            CyberKnife radio surgery machine is designed to operate on
            tumors in cancer patients.


            AUTONOMOUS ROBOTS

            Autonomous robots are designed to work independently without human intervention.
            They carry out tasks in an open environment and use sensors to adapt to their
            surroundings. They can perform in the changing environment and do not require direct

            human supervision.




                    uiz   Bee        What any one use of pre-programmed robot?
