It is the ability for a computer to imitate human cognitive functions. When computers can perform tasks that are typically done by people, including processing language, problem-solving, and learning
Artificial Intelligence
Robotics is
the design, construction, operation and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback and information processing.
What is a control system
A control system regulates and controls the operation of an automated mechanism or process so that it does what we want
