Q
What abilities must a robot have to sense its surroundings?
A
Light sensors: Detect light levels and can distinguish between different intensities.
Pressure sensors: Measure force or weight applied to them, allowing the robot to understand if something is being pressed or held.
Temperature sensors: Detect hot and cold environments or objects, crucial for safety and operation.
Acoustic sensors: Pick up sound, enabling robots to respond to noise or voice commands.
These sensors allow a robot to recognize its environment and determine attributes like size, shape, weight, and temperature. The data collected is sent to a microprocessor or computer for processing.
