Term: Advanced Robotics
Definition: Intelligent machines that can sense, decide, and act in dynamic environments, as opposed to classical robots that perform predefined tasks in controlled settings.
Term: HumanRobot Interaction (HRI)
Definition: The design and study of robots that can understand and respond to human communication, including speech and gestures.
Term: Swarm Robotics
Definition: A subfield of robotics that examines how large groups of simple robots can collaborate to accomplish complex tasks.
Term: Soft Robotics
Definition: Robotics using flexible and bio-inspired materials to create robots that can safely interact with humans.
Term: Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)
Definition: An algorithmic approach that allows a robot to map its surroundings while keeping track of its own location within that map.
