Robotics

             Have you ever wondered how your car, your computer, or even a can of beans is made? Well, it is all done by a computer-controlled machine that is programmed to move, manipulate objects, and accomplish work while interacting with its environment (Robot). This complicated machine is called a Robot. Robots have been used all over the world to help make dangerous or even long labored jobs a simple task ("Reaching"). They work in mines, industrial factories, consumer goods factories, and many more places. Robots are also used as personal hobbies, as seen in many movies, shows, etc (Schoeffler). Robots have existed for over 80 years and there potential is only growing more and more ("Robot"). Robots are essential to the world we live in today, because of all the different things they are used for a daily basis.
             Robots have been used in many dangerous environments, keeping humans from being harmed ("Reaching"). For example, The Department of energy faces the enormous task of cleaning up radioactive waste and harmful chemicals accumulated during years of nuclear weapons production at sites across the country ("Robots work"). To clean this mess up the DOE uses robots. This is a very practical way to prevent harm to humans from the radioactive material. This is one job that is not to be messed around with a human life. Also the robots are very cost effective, because of the risk involved and the fact that they never get tired ("Robots work"). For people to do the job the robots do, it would require very high pay and very skilled technicians ("Robots work"). It would be hard to find a skilled professional to risk their life for this job. Robots are also being used by the military to eliminate the need for manual rearming of battle tanks ("Reaching"). This is good because once again it wil!
