| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| We are in a time wherein everything can be automated through the use of robots—from cleaning to cooking to house management. | ROBOTS AT HOME |
| Apart from homes, robots are also used in ________ such as autonomous drones for surveillance or autonomous traffic lights control system. | ROBOTS IN THE COMMUNITY |
| Printers, scanners, fax machines, photocopiers, and other computer peripheral devices are some examples of robots used in ____. | OFFICE EQUIPMENT |
| For example, serious medical conditions such as hypertension must be monitored with precise reading. | MEDICAL |
| factories use ___________ equipment such as barcode machines, controlled tools, welding robots, and other devices. | MANUFACTORING |
| Security devices such as security systems and automatic gate control systems also use robotic technology. | DEFENSIVE SYSTEM |
| objective is to fly to and explore outer space. Researchers send mechanical objects controlled remotely to outer space since it is safer to explore new environments and perform experiments using robots. | AEROSPACE |
| _______is a branch of engineering that deals with designing, manufacturing, applying, and operating different kinds of robots. | ROBOTICS |
| A _____ is a physical mechanism or a virtual artificial agent that has the ability to perform, to some extent, a specific action based on a given instruction. | ROBOT |
| do not function unless controlled by humans. | MANUAL ROBOTS |
| designed to perform a series of tasks in the same sequence, and are commonly programmed to loop. | SEQUENTIAL ROBOTS |
| triggered when it senses something in its environment. | SENSATE ROBOTS |
| an artificial intelligence system; can also control other robots or robotic devices. | SMART ROBOTS |
| ex: firefighter drones, delivery robots, autonomous farm tractors | ROBOTS ON LAND |
| they are used for research, or to perform tasks that are too dull, dirty, subtle, or dangerous for humans. | ROBOTS ON LAND |
| ex: search and rescue drones, ocean trash collector robots | ROBOTS IN WATER |
| although robots are usually not used in water, there are some that are developed to have swimming capabilities. | ROBOTS IN WATER |
| ex: search and rescure drones, delivery drones | ROBOTS ON AIR |
| robots are used on air and even on outer space. | ROBOTS ON AIR |
| Is a programmable robotics toy released by the LEGO Group. It originated from the programmable sensor blocks used in LEGO’s line of educational toys. It comes in a kit containing many pieces including the controller, motor, and sensors. | LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 |
| gives your robot the ability to move. It uses a built-in rotation sensor to accurately control the motor’s output shaft. When programming a motor, you can use degrees or rotation to specify a desired position. For example, you can s | Servo Motor |
| has an orange tip known as a push button, which provides the touch feature. When pressed, the push button moves backward into the sensor and sends signal to the NXT Controller. | Touch sensor |
| is capable of measuring light intensity. It determines the brightness or darkness of its surrounding area and its surface, enabling it to identify different colors. | light/color sensor |
| can detect an object by determining the distance between the sensor and the object, allowing your creations to “see”. | ultrasonic sensor |
| These are devices that measure a physical quantity and convert it into an appropriate signal or data, which can be read by an instrument or by a controller (e.g. thermometer, light sensor, cameras that record and analyze data). | sensors |
| These are devices that manage, interpret, and control the accepted data to create an action (e.g. integrated circuits, LEGO NXT Controller). | controllers |
| These are devices that are used to move or control a certain system or machine (e.g motors that move wheels or propellers). | actuators |
