- **Industrial Robots** – Advanced robots like `Baxter`_ and `Amazon Robotics`_ revolutionized manufacturing and logistics.
73
74
- **Autonomous Vehicles** – Self-driving cars for robo taxi like `Waymo`_ and autonomous haulage system in mining like `AHS`_ became more advanced and bisiness-ready.

- **Exploration Robots** – Used for planetary exploration (e.g., NASA’s `Mars rovers`_).
Robotics consists of several essential components:

95
91
-
#. Sensors – Gather information from the environment (e.g., cameras, LiDAR, gyro, accelerometer, wheel encoders).
92
-
#. Actuators – Enable movement and interaction with the world (e.g., motors, hydraulic systems).
93
-
#. Computers – Process sensor data and make decisions (e.g., micro-controllers, CPUs, GPUs).
94
-
#. Power Supply – Provides energy to run the robot (e.g., batteries, solar power).
95
-
#. Software & Algorithms – Allow the robot to function and make intelligent decisions (e.g., ROS, machine learning models, localization, mapping, path planning, control).

-
104
-
#. 🤖 Industrial Robots – Used in manufacturing (e.g., robotic arms in manufacturing factories).
105
-
#. 🏠 Service Robots – Assist in daily life (e.g., vacuum robots, delivery robots).
106
-
#. 🚗 Autonomous Vehicles – Self-driving cars and drones.
107
-
#. 👨⚕️ Medical Robots – Assist in surgeries and healthcare.
108
-
#. 🚀 Space & Exploration Robots – Used for planetary exploration (e.g., NASA’s Mars rovers).
109
-
#. 🐶 Humanoid & Social Robots – Designed to interact with humans (e.g., ASIMO, Sophia).
