Who coined the term ‘Robot’ ?
Karel Čapek
Science Diction: The Origin Of The Word 'Robot' Robot is a relative
newcomer to the English language. It was the brainchild of the Czech
playwright, novelist and journalist Karel Čapek, who introduced it in his
1920 hit play, R.U.R., or Rossum's Universal Robots.
17-Dec-20 7

Before ‘Robotics’, What is a ‘Robot’?
A ‘Robot’ is a machine, that can be programmed and
It eases any human effort.
In a nutshell:
- That can move
- That eases the human efforts
- Have electrical/mechanical and programming portions
17-Dec-20 8

What is ‘Robotics’?
According to Wiki:
- Robotics is an interdisciplinary research area at
the interface of computer science and engineering.
- Robotics involves design, construction, operation,
and use of robots.
–The goal of robotics is to design intelligent
machines that can help and assist humans in their
day-to-day lives and keep everyone safe.
17-Dec-20 9

What is ‘Robotics’?
- Robotics is also used in STEM (science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics) as a
teaching aid.
- Robotics is a branch of engineering that involves
the conception, design, manufacture, and
operation of robots. This field overlaps with
computer engineering, computer science
(especially artificial intelligence), electronics,
mechatronics, mechanical, nanotechnology and
bioengineering.
17-Dec-20 10

Machine Vs. Robot
• The key difference is some essence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or
some sort of self-learning capabilities: present in Robot
• A machine is just a mechanical or electrical ‘thing’ that performs a
task and give desired output. It’s particularly for repetitive tasks.
• A robot can be reprogrammed. It is in larger extent ‘An intelligent
Machine’.

Embedded System
17-Dec-20 12

Embedded System
• The difference between embedded systems designers and software
engineers or IT technicians is the in-depth knowledge of the hardware
that embedded designers possess.
• Embedded designers must have knowledge of electronics to
effectively design embedded systems.

How do I start??!!
Now comes the golden question…
17-Dec-20 31

“How can I start?”
• First decide:
• Do you want to learn ‘robotics’ only for hobby?
Or
• You want to learn robotics to take this as career?
• Let’s assume, we start as hobbyist.
• We may follow the method: “Trial and Error” & “Learning by Doing”
• Ensure you have clear learnings on following:
• Basic Electronics
• Basic Programming: C, Python
• Arduino, Raspberry Pi
17-Dec-20 32

0) Google:
- What is Robotics
- Difference between robotics, electronics, and embedded system
- why should I learn robotics
- Steps for learning robotics.
Tips: take information from authentic sites only. Like Quora /Wiki. There are a Hundred of
others.
17-Dec-20 33

1) First check, some interesting electronics and robotics projects being
developed by different hobbyists and researchers.
Example: https://www.instructables.com/
- You can pick any 1 or 2 projects of your interests, which you will
simply follow/ copy-paste on your own.
-Generally, the learners choose something that moves or can sense
anything. You might also be interested in those projects.
17-Dec-20 34

2) Check and Learn, what is Arduino:
https://www.arduino.cc/
• Then, Roughly go some videos, in order to know, what can you do
with Arduino: https://www.youtube.com/c/Arduino/videos
17-Dec-20 35

3) Go through the following playlists (WHOLE) and if needed then search for some other materials:
- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA567CE235D39FA84
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtLwoNJ6klE
- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPK2l9Knytg5s2dk8V09thBmNl2g5pRSr
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox-9eOc3bQU
17-Dec-20 36

4) Google- Whatever comes to your mind- to come to this stage-
regarding exploring those sites and videos
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17-Dec-20 37

If you are done till further, You have the basic ideas of Arduino and the
Kick-starting factors of Robotics / Electronics/ Embedded System.
Then,
5) Check and target any suitable competiton, where you can participate
as kickstart.
i.e. Bangladesh Robot Olympiad: bdro.org
17-Dec-20 38

6) Google some other international competition on robotics of your level
(Class 6-12)- and learn:
- In which category these competitions run
- How the competitors participate
- Which specific one path should you follow if you want to participate there.
Example:
-https://coderzleague.com/
-Conrad Challenge
17-Dec-20 39

7) Try to source yourself the robotics/electronics items online and make
those 1 or2 projects you have selected.
• In Dhaka, there are several large hubs of the electronics/robotics
items market:
- Patuatuli (Old Dhaka)
- swimming pool market, Dhaka stadium
17-Dec-20 40

8) And welcome to the journey of becoming a Robotics Passionate/
enthusiast/ Engineer.

17-Dec-20 56

Few Suggestions
• Choose any ‘Specific Track’ and make a significant milestone.
• Always make schedule, track your progress
• Make your portfolio site- Publish whatever you have learnt, whatever
you have achieved. Link all your online presence there.
• Build your habit of ‘Reading’. And then on ‘Research’.
• ‘Documentation’ of a particular knowledge, software, solution,
product-Anything you name- is and should be the first priority to go
through before moving with that.
17-Dec-20 57

17-Dec-20 58

To Make this learning sustainable
• Take mentorship.
i.e.: EMK Center
• Form a team with like-minded people.
Keep aside of your emotion in choosing teammate and select passionate members. In most of the
cases, a potential initiative ruins just because of choosing wrong member.
• Set a Goal and keep focused. Don’t be scattered and run here and there.
i.e. Say, you want to participate in coming ‘Bangabandhu Innovation Grant-2020’ competition. Then
stick to the plan and execute until it comes to a end.
DON’T set your goal, passion, future decision based on a particular (and
temporary) success or failure.
17-Dec-20 59

Final Words
"The secret of getting ahead is getting started." — Mark Twain
If you can't assure me of 'Practice Yourself', I can't assure of your
desired outcomes.
Please Don't waste your time. If you give only 1 hour a day for
learning robotics, it's okay, but make sure that 1 hour is quality and
without any distraction, disruption.
