Robotic systems are complex machines that combine hardware and software components. From mechanical structures to , each element plays a crucial role in creating a functional robot. Understanding how these parts work together is key to designing effective robotic systems.
Selecting the right components is vital for a robot's performance. , , and must be chosen based on project requirements and constraints. also play a significant role, affecting a robot's strength, weight, and durability. Proper documentation through schematics and diagrams ensures clear communication of the system's design.
