Robots have become a part of everyday life. They help soldiers, aid doctors with complex surgeries, search for disaster survivors, and race through the sky. Robot Innovations studies the unique challenges that engineers and designers face when creating these robots. Readers will learn how engineers use advanced technology to invent robots that are fun, useful, or even life-saving. Today, robots are hard at work in hospitals around the world. Some simply help comfort patients or dispense medicine, while others are helping surgeons with complex operations. Medical Robots introduces readers to examples of these robots, the challenges faced by their designers, and the advances that are on the horizon. Easy-to-read text, vivid images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index
