Robotics

   As we integrate into a new age of technology we have the power to create what was once a dream of a far away future, robots. Although the robots we have today don't act as our personal helper to do are every wish they instead  work behind the scenes performing tasks we seem to oversee. So what is a robot and how is it used today? Surprisingly to some people robots are not machine like humans here to take over the Earth but are machines that can carry out complex series of actions autimatically   and most can be programmed through computers. Taking this definition into account robots vary from    things in our household like an automatic vacuum cleaner to a complex machine that manufactures goods on a conveyer belt. These robots may perform tasks that are easy but they change our way of life drastically and are a giant leap in science.

     A robot, although a machine, has parts that mirror our body and the way it works. There is normally a metal structure that surrounds the robot to protect the machine and wires to get damaged like a layer of skin. A system of wires that connect the moving and sensing parts of the robot like the nervous system, which is connected to the brain or the computer which sends the signals in the wires to the moving parts and sensors according to the program . Sensors that see things like color or objects and sense things like touch which then send signal back to the computer which sends out the order for the  next part of the program resamples our five senses. It also has pieces that makes up the infrastructure like bones that move. In the example of our robot it mirrored the actions of a puppy but instead of being living it is made up of wires and moving parts. Another example of a robot mirroring the actions of humans  is robotic prostetics and even surgeries done by robot hands by specialists in other countries

    To conclude robots are machines that are programed to perform tasks and they can even mirror the way our body works, this leap in technology affects medicine, manufacture of goods, and the way we live.
