What to Focus On

  • A robot has a moving body or chassis.
  • A typical robot has a mechanical body, an electric skeleton, and a programmed brain.
  • Sensors collect data from the environment.
  • Control system directs the robot’s task.
  • Sensors provide electrical signals and help in observation.
  • Actuators transform energy into motion.
  • The controller is the brain of the robot.
  • Sensors provide input to the controller.
  • The controller creates corrective signals.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The control system and the computational block are the same thing in every sense.

A robot can be called a robot even if its body or chassis cannot move.

Sensors move the robot and actuators only collect information.
