There are many types of robots. They used in many different environments, and for many different uses, despite being very diverse in application and they all three share basic similarities when it comes to:
Robots have various kind of mechanical construction, a structure, a shape or form which is typically the solution/result for a specific task or problem. For example, if you want the robot to travel across dirt or heavy clay, you may consider using the processed track, in the form of your robot with box may be processed track. In the process it is being built for mechanical travel across the problem of heavy mud or dirt. This mechanical side usually deals with

Many different types of batteries can be used as a power source for robots. They range from lead acid batteries that are safe and have a relatively long shelf life but somewhat heavy for cadmium batteries silver which is much smaller in size and is much more expensive. Design of Android-powered battery you need to take into account factors such as safety, life cycle and weight. Generators, often a type of internal combustion engine, and can also be used. However, such designs are often complex and need fuel mechanically, requiring heat dissipation and relatively heavy. The rope connecting Android to power supply remove the power supply from the robot completely. This has the advantage of saving weight and space by moving all power components and stored elsewhere. . However, this design does not come with the drawback of having a continuous cable robot, which can be difficult to manage possible power sources could be:
• Pneumatic (compressed gases)
• Solar power (using the Sun's energy and convert it to electrical energy)
• Hydraulic (fluid)
• Flywheel energy storage
• Organic garbage (through anaerobic

And often prefer these motors in systems with lighter loads, as the dominant form of motion is rotation.
Linear motors
Different types of linear actuators move in and out instead of spinning, often faster than changes in direction, especially when there is a need for very large forces such as is the case with industrial robots. Usually powered by compressed air (pneumatic engine) or oil (hydraulic motor).
Series floppy drives
Spring can be designed as part of the engine the engine, to allow better control of the force. It has been used in various robots, especially walking robots robot.
Air muscles
Artificial muscles, pneumatic, also known as air muscles are special tubes that contract (typically up to 40%) when the air inside. Some have used Android applications.
Muscle wire
Muscle wire, also known as shape memory alloy, Nitinol or Flexinol wire which contracted slightly (usually less than 5%) when you run electricity through it. Some have used small robot applications.
Electroactive
The speed of DC motor can be controlled by the variable supply voltage or by changing the strength of current. Small DC motors are used in toys, tools, and appliances. Larger DC motors are used in propulsion of electric vehicles, in drives for steel rolling mills, elevator
The farming industry is all about sustainability and production. Farmers provides care to plants and making sure they receive the right amount of care in hopes that they will cultivate enough product that can be distributed around the world. The agricultural revolution which took place between 1860 and 1910 help push the industry forward by providing ways with technology to increase the rate of production by evolving from hand labor to machine labor. The goal of this research is to help push robotics into agriculture. With autonomous robots it will provide a way maintain order and consistency.
But there are other challenges they could face in the future. If the railways in Traverse City start transporting materials again, it could challenge water transport for business. Rail is not quite as cheap as water, but it is faster. In conclusion, water transport is one of the main modes of transportation for materials in Traverse City, MI
Heavy mechanism are tractors and heavy electronic equipment. In farming they used heavy mechanisms to farm better and graze more land. As it shows in document C and D, heavy mechanisms were used a lot in order to make farmers earn more money because of how much land they can farm. The more land, the more money a farmer can earn.
Well if that wasn’t effective. They also built the wheelbarrow. The chinese wheelbarrow made had a tire in the center with goods being able to be carried on either side of the wheel. Did you know that it made it way easier for the farmers to push
Materials and Methods A frog leg was used for the muscle in the experiments. The skin was removed to expose the gastrocnemius, and the bone was severed just below the achilles tendon. The femur was cut just above the knee, and the tibiofibula was severed just below the knee. Ringer 's solution was applied to the muscle to keep the muscle moist. The procedures were done using a power lab, and a force transducer with a micropositioner.
PURPOSE The goal of this lab was to build a mousetrap powered car. The mousetrap car needed to travel fifteen feet. The purpose of building these mousetrap cars was to demonstrate our knowledge of motion, friction, force, distance, and energy. We have studied these concepts, and each one is a factor in the success of a mousetrap car.
Since the robot is solar powered, they would not need to worry about finding a source of

Many jobs have become easier by being replaced by robots. Robot are not just the idea of talking mechanical parts as we see in futuristic movies. There are a variety of different types of robotic machines, great majority of them appear in factories and in science technology work fields. Robots in factories help replace a dangerous parts of a job. However, there have been different perspective with robots replacing jobs.
In the modern age of technology, the abundance of batteries cannot easily be overlooked. Batteries convert chemical energy into electrical energy and power several electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops, tablets, PDAs, and iPods to name a few. Furthermore, they provide power to households and several industrial enterprises around the world. Indeed, these batteries have become very advantageous to people because of the convenience they provide in everyday encounters. However, batteries can also be harmful despite the advantages they offer.
