    This document provides information about robotics and embedded systems. It defines a robot as a machine that can be programmed to perform tasks through variable motions. The first uses of robots were to replace humans for dangerous tasks or to perform wide specific tasks. Embedded systems are computing devices placed into objects to perform dedicated functions. An example is microcontrollers like Arduino, which serve as the "brain" of robots. The document also provides a simple example code to blink an LED on and off repeatedly using an Arduino microcontroller.

    2 PURPOSES OF ROBOTICS: Some facts about Robotics in the World (HISTORY

    1. PURPOSE OF REPLACEMENT
    2. PURPOSE TO DO TASK  In 2004, Epson released the smallest flying
    (wide specific task) robot.
     In 1495, Leonardo Da Vinci designed the
    first humanoid robot.
    WHAT IS A ROBOT?  The first industrial robot UNIMATE was

    computation came from the fact that the smallest

    Example Program for Blinking an LED for 1 second, and turns off for
    another 1 second, repeatedly.
    Materials needed:

    LED 1pc
    220-ohm Resistor 1pc
    Jumping wires 2 pc
    Breadboard 1 pc
    Microcontroller (Arduino) 1 pc
    Cable printer 1pc
    Computer 1 unit

    PROGRAM CODE

    void setup() {
    // put your setup code here, to run once:
    pinMode(13,OUTPUT); //pin 13 will be used for the LED and serve as an OUTPUT
    }

    void loop() {

    // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:


    digitalWrite(13,HIGH); //pin 13 will ON
    delay(1000); // after 1 second
    digitalWrite(13,LOW); //pin 13 will OFF
    delay(1000); // after 1 second *(repeat from the start)
