As part of the UAE Innovation Month in Sharjah, being celebrated from 15th to 21st, February, an interactive workshop on robots was given by robotics engineer Ibrahim Tamim on Sunday.
Tamim said that the workshop aimed to explain the mechanism of robots’ work in a simplified manner and direct the attention of its participants to the field of technology. He added that robotics is an important field of study that directly contributes to the progress of a country.
He clarified that there are several types of robots, including ones that are used by factories in the manufacture of hardware and electronics, and others that are used for daily purposes, such as cleaning. He explained that a robot consists of three main parts: sensors, a processor and a motor. Each part carries out a basic function without which the robot cannot move.
During the workshop, participants were divided into two groups of four. Members of each group worked together to design, build and test robotic systems as part of a LEGO game. They then connected the robots to a controller that controlled their movement.
