This article briefly highlights the basic requirement for any individual to be a part of robotics family
anywhere around the world. This report not just lists out the requirements but also provides necessary
steps to achieve those requirements.
PATH TO
ROBOTS
ROBOTICS
ER. BISHAL BHANDARI ROBOTS are
machines that can
be used to perform
ROBOTICS:
Robotics is simply the branch of technological science which deals certain jobs
all about the ROBOTS and their mechanism. But the question
arising here is What actually is ROBOT?? then.
ROBOTICS:
Till now I think we came to know that what a Robot exactly is? So now lets discuss what robotics
is and what is necessary. Robotics is simply study of robots in which all the design and
development of robot also takes place.
Designing a robot is a very systematic process. If not a step in that process works out, the whole
process needs to be repeated. That is why high attention is required. Designing a robot involves
following steps:
It is the first step and is very important step. These steps are implementable for doing
projects too. In this step one must know what he is going to develop. He needs to note
down all the requirements as well as technology that is going to be used. In case of
ordered product (developing for clients) then you have to understand their requirements
clearly.
Materials collection:
After you become clear about your requirements, you need to find out whether the
required components are available or not. If yes, just buy it else go for alternate
component that can be used instead of that particular component.
Designing:
After you have all the components you need to design the required chassis (frame of
robot) design, circuitry necessary and various other blocks and mechanisms (for eg:
gears, wheels etc.)
Testing:
All the designs you have made must be thoroughly tested in each and every condition
that your bot is going to be used on. If no such condition is available at your developing
centre then you need to create artificial environment for it and must test it. Otherwise
your robot may not perform well.

Implementation:
This is the step after all your tests succeed. After completely success of testing phase all
the blocks you have created must be assembled together to work as one. This will be
your product for the market so finishing its looks as well as placement of components
has a major importance here.
Beyond that several competitions are organized yearly so that you can expose your skills to the
market. Being an robotics fellow, you can be popular among your colleagues as well as your
skills of working in a team will get boosted up. Team work is the key to success in engineering
field. So think about it when you have got time instead of rushing in the last hour.
Then what sort of skills are necessary? How can you get is?
Not all the robots are automated. Manual robots can be made even without using a piece of
code. So all you may have is electronics skills as well as mechanical skills. Robotics club is a
team where people with various skills gather to make a product so you need to be skilled in any
one of the following.

Mechanical:
A mechanical expert is always in need in robotics club. He needs to know basic skills like
cutting, riveting, welding, and designing a stable prototype, motion tracking, gear
development, drilling etc. If have these skills you can be eligible for the club.
Electronics:
o Sensor development:
Sensors are the eyes of automated bots. These are the most critical and sensible
part of robotics as slight mistake in this portion can collapse the whole system. A
very energetic, having skills on interfacing sensors and using various available
components to make some another necessary component is needed in this part.
If you dont have imagination power then you are not eligible for this if you have
all required skills too. A vision and imagination is the most needed skill in a sensor
developer.
o Circuit development:
There always remains several switching circuits and control circuits in robots. For
this job, people with knowledge of core electronics is always needed. The person
wishing to do this job needs the basic skill like soldering, routing, components
knowledge, circuit design tricks, routing and signal knowledge. If you have above
skills then you can be useful for the club.
