Robotics is a branch of technology that involves designing, building, and programming robots. Robots are machines that can perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. They can be used in various industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, and exploration. Robotics combines elements from mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science.
Artificial Intelligence refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and learn like humans. AI enables machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as problem-solving, decision-making, natural language processing, and pattern recognition. AI includes subfields like machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and expert systems.
Robotics and AI have a wide range of applications across various industries. For example, in manufacturing, robots can automate repetitive tasks, improve efficiency, and enhance precision. In healthcare, robotic surgery systems can assist surgeons in performing complex procedures with increased precision. AI-powered chatbots are used in customer service, while autonomous vehicles are an application of AI in transportation.
