Definition of Robots
• A robot is a software-controllable mechanical
device that uses sensors to guide one or more
end-effectors through programmed motions in a
workspace in order to manipulate physical
objects.
• Today’s robots are anthropomorphic in the sense
that they patterned after human arm. That is
why, industrial robots are often referred to as
robotic arms or, more generally, as robotic
manipulators.
