Robotics is a branch of engineering and computer science that involves the conception, design, manufacture and operation of robots. The objective of the robotics field is to create intelligent machines that can assist humans in a variety of ways.
Robotics combines elements from various fields, including mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and artificial intelligence. It involves creating machines, known as robots, that can perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. The term "robot" originates from the Czech word "robota," meaning forced labor, and was popularized by Isaac Asimov in the 1940s.
