Building a Sumo Robot

Automation comprises techniques applied to a given process to make it more efficient and productive, agile and effective, minimising human interference in these processes. The creation of automatic systems allows equipment or devices to be controlled by means of electro-electronic devices such as microcomputers, mobile devices, among others. As technology continues to evolve, human beings increasingly feel the need to integrate technologies so that simple devices can meet the most varied needs, replacing the various components used to integrate with the environment with a centralised control system capable of manipulating various variables in the environment. Robotics is an educational and technological branch that encompasses computers, robots and computing, which deals with systems made up of automatic mechanical parts controlled by integrated circuits, making motorised mechanical systems, controlled manually or automatically by electrical circuits. Machines can be said to be alive, but at the same time they are an imitation of life, they are nothing more than connected wires and mechanisms, all of which together make up a robot.
