This document discusses the components and design of robots. It outlines Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics which govern a robot's interactions with humans. The key components of a robot include a power source, actuators for movement, various sensors, manipulators for interaction, and methods for locomotion and navigation. The document also examines the types of power sources, actuators, sensors, manipulators and locomotion that robots employ.

- 4. LAWS OF ASIMOV 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

Editor's Notes
- #4: A machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable by a computer Well it is a system that contains sensors, control systems, manipulators, power supplies and software all working together to perform a task. Designing, building, programming and testing a robots is a combination of physics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, structural engineering, mathematics and computing. In some cases biology, medicine, chemistry might also be involved. A study of robotics means that students are actively engaged with all of these disciplines in a deeply problem-posing problem-solving environment.
