Robots are intelligent machines that act intelligently depending on mechanical systems, control systems and computer algorithms. The main interest in developing robots is to teach them the ability to think and act like humans and even perform processes that are too difficult for humans. Today, the service of robots is widely used in many fields, such as healthcare, defense, education and industry.
Types of robots according to the tasks they perform:
• Collaboration Robots:
One of the most common robots is Collaboration Robots. As an example of these, we can show the robots produced by the companies "Fetch Robotics", "Otto Motors" and "GreyOrange". These programmable robots are designed to work in positioning, picking, counting, filling and sorting applications.
• Automated guided vehicles:
The most common Forklifts are examples of these. One of the main manufacturers of self-driving forklifts is Linde Material Handling. They are well-suited for value-added, repetitive and longer-distance operations during shipping processes. Linde's automated forklifts feature a navigation laser, front and rear scanners, a 3D camera and visual warning indicators that allow human workers to navigate safely around the warehouse nearby.
