- 2. Robotics isthe branch of technology dealing with design, construction, operation, and application of robots and computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Automation is an extension of robotics and can be termed as the next phase of industrial revolution. The latest application of robotics and automation can be seen in technologies such as autonomous or driverless cars, 3D printing and chat bots. 2
- 3. AUTOMATION Automation isthe use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, stabilization of ships, aircraft and other applications with minimal or reduced human intervention. Types of Automation: Automation Software Automation Business Process Automation Robotic Process Automation Intelligent Process Automation Industrial Automation 3
- 4. ROBOTICS The RobotInstitute of America designates a robot as “a reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through various programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks.” Robotic process automation (RPA) is the application of technology that allows employees in a company to configure computer software or a “robot” to capture and interpret existing applications for processing a transaction, manipulating data, triggering responses and communicating with other digital systems. 4
