Understanding How do humans design machines that can move and act?
Modern robotics depends on advances in engineering, computing, artificial intelligence, and materials science.
A deeper explanation
Robotics is the meeting point between the digital and physical worlds. Sensors allow machines to perceive their environment, algorithms allow them to make decisions, and mechanical systems allow them to interact with objects. From industrial robots to autonomous vehicles, robotics is changing how humans work and explore.
