Robotics and perception
Robotics involves designing and building machines, called robots, that can perform tasks traditionally done by humans, often requiring precision, strength, or repetition. Perception in robotics refers to a robot’s ability to interpret sensory information from its environment—such as cameras, microphones, or sensors—to understand what is around it. This enables the robot to navigate, recognize objects, or perform specific actions intelligently. Together, robotics and perception allow machines to operate autonomously or assist humans in complex tasks, making systems more adaptable, efficient, and useful in a variety of real-world applications.
