Robotics

Robotics have grown far beyond & world wide.Robots and robotics are more firmly entrenched in to our day to day life.If u are a budding electronics professional,ready to accept high risk challenges or comfortable with both mechanics and computer programming with a drive to build new things,then robotics could be your platform.

Know the field
Let us first define robotics.It is a multidisciplinary area,which intgrate intelligent control,communication,computer vision,mechatronics,sensor fusion,design and many other aspects on a single platform for better service.Robots helps industries to translate their competitiveness and deliver radically enhanced level of productivity,efficiency and profitability.
According to CII report,from 2008 onward the world market for industrial robots is projected to rise by an average of 4.2 per cent per annum,reaching 129,300 units in 2010.In India the industry is expected to grow at two to two and a half times the global average.

Where can you be placed
Mejor robot manufacturing companies like ABB,Panasonic,Kuka,Precision Automation and robotics India,Hi-Tech Robotics System and Fanuc have their own presence in India.The position of robotics in india is that it is widely used in automation industries widely.
Robots are also used in the field of defence,nuclear system,sea exploration,servicing of transmission electric signal,designing of biomedical equipments,etc.

Money matter
Lets see whether robotics satisfies your expectation for the work.Students who completed their post graduation and doctorate are being paid 450,000 to 959,000 per annum.Those who are graduating may get offer range from 350,000 to 650,000 per annum. A robotics engineer could be offer minimum 350,000.

How to begin
However you will never come to face robotics during your engineering as a main subject part.
As per the university of Singapore for robotics one should have basic knowledge of electronics,eletrical and mechanical engineering.But this is not enough ,your mind and your work should be creative.If the student is taking robotics workshop,then it should be balance enough to deal with both theorotical and practical aspects.Taking up college projects in robotics will help students to determine their true motivation and prepare them early.Also number of technical festival across India will help them enhance their aspects of robotics.Also with this one should have brief knowledge of PCB designing.sensors,actuators,microprocessor and microcontroler and actuator using programming languages like MPLAB.
