An animatronic robot

Robots are machines which are guided by programming and are able to perform tasks independent of human operators. Various aspects of robotics, such as humanoid and service robots are included in this subcategory.

Subcategories

Automata - (singular, automaton) self-operating machines or autonomous robots
Computer vision - also known as "machine vision," the science and technology of machines that are able to see objects
Humanoid robots - robots with the appearance similar to that of a human
Intelligent robots - robots imbued with artificial intelligence
Medical robotics - robots used in the diagnosis, treatment or cure of medical problems
Mobile robots - automatic machines capable of navigating an environment independently
Robot control - the study of the control of robots
Robot kinematics - the study of the motion of robots without considering the forces that cause this motion
Robot sensing systems - systems that allow robots to sense their environment, using visual, tactile, or other sensors
Service robots - robots created to assist human beings, which are usually autonomous
