Introduction
Robotics:
Robotics is a branch of technology that deals with the
design construction operation structural disposition,
manufacture & applications of robot.
Robot:
Robots are programmable, physical machines that
have sensors & Actuators.

For discovery & exploration purpose
Robot Ethics
0th) A robot may not harm humanity, or, by
Asimov’s inaction, allow humanity to come to
Three^H^H^H^H^H harm.
Four Laws: 1st) A robot may not injure a human being
or, through inaction, allow a human
being to come to harm.
2nd) A robot must obey orders given it by
human beings except where such
orders would conflict with the First
Law.
3rd) A robot must protect its own existence
as long as such protection does not
conflict with the First or Second Law.

Smart Sensors
Definition:
Smart sensors are sensors with
integrated electronics that can
perform one or more of the function logic
functions, two-way communication, make
decisions.
What the SMART SENSOR can do ?
Si Tech. in Smart Sensors
A smart sensor utilizes the transduction
properties of one class of materials and
electronic properties of silicon (GA As).
A transduction element either includes thin
metal films, zinc oxide and polymeric films.
Integrated sensors provide significant
advantages in terms of overall size and the
ability to use small signals from the
transduction element.

SENSOR
Enhancement of Appl.
Self calibration:
It means adjusting some parameters of
sensors during fabrication.
Computation:
It allows one to obtain avg., variance &
std. deviation for the set of measurements.
Communication
Multi sensing
Advantages
Revolution in medical science & Health care
systems
New and wide scope in education and
training
A good help in Nuclear industry
Used tremendously in sport activities
Play the role of an efficient assistance in
research and development sciences
Can very well handle household business
Applications
Robotic Applications
1. Parts handling
2. Assembly
3. Painting
4. Surveillance
5. Security(Bomb disposal..really telecherics
rather than robotics)
6. Home help(grass cutting, nursing)
