For example, a robot designed to travel across heavy dirt or mud might use <a href="/wiki/Caterpillar_tracks" class="mw-redirect" title="Caterpillar tracks">caterpillar tracks</a>. Origami inspired robots can sense and analyze in extreme environments.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The mechanical aspect of the robot is mostly the creator's solution to completing the assigned task and dealing with the physics of the environment around it. Form follows function.</li> <li>Electrical components that power and control the machinery. For example, the robot with <a href="/wiki/Caterpillar_tracks" class="mw-redirect" title="Caterpillar tracks">caterpillar tracks</a> would need some kind of power to move the tracker treads. That power comes in the form of electricity, which will have to travel through a wire and originate from a battery, a basic <a href="/wiki/Electrical_circuit" class="mw-redirect" title="Electrical circuit">electrical circuit</a>. Even petrol-powered <a href="/wiki/Machines" class="mw-redirect" title="Machines">machines</a> that get their power mainly from petrol still require an electric current to start the combustion process which is why most petrol-powered machines like cars, have batteries. The electrical aspect of robots is used for movement (through motors), sensing (where electrical signals are used to measure things like heat, sound, position, and energy status), and operation (robots need some level of <a href="/wiki/Electrical_energy" title="Electrical energy">electrical energy</a> supplied to their motors and sensors in order to activate and perform basic operations)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Software" title="Software">Software</a>. A program is how a robot decides when or how to do something. In the caterpillar track example, a robot that needs to move across a muddy road may have the correct mechanical construction and receive the correct amount of power from its battery, but would not be able to go anywhere without a program telling it to move. Programs are the core essence of a robot, it could have excellent mechanical and electrical construction, but if its program is poorly structured, its performance will be very poor (or it may not perform at all). There are three different types of robotic programs: remote control, artificial intelligence, and hybrid. A robot with <a href="/wiki/Remote_control" title="Remote control">remote control</a> programming has a preexisting set of commands that it will only perform if and when it receives a signal from a control source, typically a human being with remote control. It is perhaps more appropriate to view devices controlled primarily by human commands as falling in the discipline of automation rather than robotics. Robots that use <a href="/wiki/Artificial_intelligence" title="Artificial intelligence">artificial intelligence</a> interact with their environment on their own without a control source, and can determine reactions to objects and problems they encounter using their preexisting programming. A hybrid is a form of programming that incorporates both AI and RC functions in them.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Applied_robotics">Applied robotics</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Robotics&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Applied robotics"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As many robots are designed for specific tasks, this method of classification becomes more relevant. For example, many robots are designed for assembly work, which may not be readily adaptable for other applications. They are termed "assembly robots". For seam welding, some suppliers provide complete welding systems with the robot i.e. the welding equipment along with other material handling facilities like turntables, etc. as an integrated unit. Such an integrated robotic system is called a "welding robot" even though its discrete manipulator unit could be adapted to a variety of tasks.

Many different types of batteries can be used as a power source for robots. They range from lead–acid batteries, which are safe and have relatively long shelf lives but are rather heavy compared to silver–cadmium batteries which are much smaller in volume and are currently much more expensive. Designing a battery-powered robot needs to take into account factors such as safety, cycle lifetime, and <a href="/wiki/Weight" title="Weight">weight</a>. Generators, often some type of <a href="/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine" title="Internal combustion engine">internal combustion engine</a>, can also be used. However, such designs are often mechanically complex and need fuel, require heat dissipation, and are relatively heavy. A tether connecting the robot to a power supply would remove the power supply from the robot entirely. This has the advantage of saving weight and space by moving all power generation and storage components elsewhere. However, this design does come with the drawback of constantly having a cable connected to the robot, which can be difficult to manage.<sup id="cite_ref-Power_Sources_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Power_Sources-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Potential power sources could be: </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Pneumatic" class="mw-redirect" title="Pneumatic">pneumatic</a> (compressed gases)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Solar_power" title="Solar power">Solar power</a> (using the sun's energy and converting it into electrical power)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Hydraulic" class="mw-redirect" title="Hydraulic">hydraulics</a> (liquids)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Flywheel_energy_storage" title="Flywheel energy storage">flywheel energy storage</a></li> <li>organic garbage (through <a href="/wiki/Anaerobic_digestion" title="Anaerobic digestion">anaerobic digestion</a>)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Nuclear_power" title="Nuclear power">nuclear</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Actuation">Actuation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Robotics&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Actuation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Actuator" title="Actuator">Actuator</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/07/2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg/170px-2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="329" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/07/2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg/255px-2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/07/2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg/340px-2005-11-14_ShadowLeg_Finished_medium.jpg 2x" data-file-width="529" data-file-height="1024" /></a><figcaption>A <a href="/wiki/Robot_leg" title="Robot leg">robotic leg</a> powered by <a href="/wiki/Pneumatic_artificial_muscles" title="Pneumatic artificial muscles">air muscles</a> </figcaption></figure> <p>Actuators are the "<a href="/wiki/Muscle" title="Muscle">muscles</a>" of a robot, the parts which convert <a href="/wiki/Potential_energy" title="Potential energy">stored energy</a> into movement.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> By far the most popular actuators are electric motors that rotate a wheel or gear, and linear actuators that control industrial robots in factories.

If robots are to work effectively in homes and other non-industrial environments, the way they are instructed to perform their jobs, and especially how they will be told to stop will be of critical importance. The people who interact with them may have little or no training in robotics, and so any interface will need to be extremely intuitive. Science fiction authors also typically assume that robots will eventually be capable of communicating with humans through <a href="/wiki/Speech" title="Speech">speech</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gesture" title="Gesture">gestures</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Facial_expression" title="Facial expression">facial expressions</a>, rather than a <a href="/wiki/Command-line_interface" title="Command-line interface">command-line interface</a>.

Its main task is achieving emotional well-being, i.e. overcome stress and anxiety. Robin was trained to analyze facial expressions and use his face to display his emotions given the context.

In space, defense, security, or the nuclear industry, but also in logistics, maintenance, and inspection, autonomous robots are particularly useful in replacing human workers performing dirty, dull or unsafe tasks, thus avoiding workers' exposures to hazardous agents and conditions and reducing physical, ergonomic and psychosocial risks. For example, robots are already used to perform repetitive and monotonous tasks, to handle radioactive material or to work in explosive atmospheres. In the future, many other highly repetitive, risky or unpleasant tasks will be performed by robots in a variety of sectors like agriculture, construction, transport, healthcare, firefighting or cleaning services.<sup id="cite_ref-161" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-161"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>160<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Moreover, there are certain skills to which humans will be better suited than machines for some time to come and the question is how to achieve the best combination of human and robot skills.

The usual way to build a career in robotics is to complete an undergraduate degree in one of these established subjects, followed by a graduate (masters') degree in Robotics. Graduate degrees are typically joined by students coming from all of the contributing disciplines, and include familiarization of relevant undergraduate level subject matter from each of them, followed by specialist study in pure robotics topics which build upon them. As an interdisciplinary subject, robotics graduate programmes tend to be especially reliant on students working and learning together and sharing their knowledge and skills from their home discipline first degrees. </p><p>Robotics industry careers then follow the same pattern, with most roboticists working as part of interdisciplinary teams of specialists from these home disciplines followed by the robotics graduate degrees which enable them to work together. Workers typically continue to identify as members of their home disciplines who work in robotics, rather than as 'roboticists'. This structure is reinforced by the nature of some engineering professions, which grant chartered engineer status to members of home disciplines rather than to robotics as a whole. </p><p>Robotics careers are widely predicted to grow in the 21st century, as robots replace more manual and intellectual human work. Some workers who lose their jobs to robotics may be well-placed to retrain to build and maintain these robots, using their domain-specific knowledge and skills. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History<span class="anchor" id="History_of_robotics"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Robotics&amp;action=edit&amp;section=67" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/History_of_robots" title="History of robots">History of robots</a></div> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Date </th> <th>Significance </th> <th>Robot name </th> <th>Inventor </th></tr> <tr> <td>c. 420 B.C. </td> <td>A wooden, steam-propelled bird, which was able to fly </td> <td>Flying pigeon </td> <td>Archytas of Tarentum </td></tr> <tr> <td>Third century B.C. and earlier </td> <td>One of the earliest descriptions of automata appears in the <i><a href="/wiki/Lie_Zi" class="mw-redirect" title="Lie Zi">Lie Zi</a></i> text, on a much earlier encounter between <a href="/wiki/King_Mu_of_Zhou" title="King Mu of Zhou">King Mu of Zhou</a> (1023–957 BC) and a mechanical engineer known as Yan Shi, an 'artificer'.
