Industrial robots
|
<p>Industrial robots are robots used in an industrial manufacturing environment. Usually these are articulated arms specifically developed for such applications as welding, material handling, painting and others. If we judge purely by application this type could also include some automated guided vehicles and other robots.</p>

Domestic or household robots
|
<p>Robots used at home. This type of robots includes many quite different devices such as robotic vacuum cleaners, robotic pool cleaners, sweepers, gutter cleaners and other robots that can do different chores. Also, some surveillance and telepresence robots could be regarded as household robots if used in that environment.</p>

Entertainment robots
|
<p>These are robots used for entertainment. This is a very broad category. It starts with toy robots such as robosapien or the running alarm clock and ends with real heavyweights such as articulated robot arms used as motion simulators.</p>

Space robots
|
<p>I’d like to single out robots used in space as a separate type. This type would include robots used on the International Space Station, Canadarm that was used in Shuttles, as well as Mars rovers and other robots used in space.</p>

Cartesian/Gantry robots
|
<p>Typical Cartesian robots have 3 linear axes of freedom which are perpendicularly oriented at each other. As you can understand, this ensures a working envelope in a form of a rectangular box.Of course, absolutely everything has its pros and cons. The same goes for this type of robots. I'll start with the good things</p>

Cylindrical robot type
|
<p>As far as I know, the cylindrical robot type is one of the rarest nowadays. However, there are areas where they could still be useful. Also, they are always mentioned when stationary robot types are discussed, so I'll try to give you some insight on this topic.</p>

Spherical robots
|
<p>Spherical robots, sometimes regarded as polar robots, are stationary robot arms with spherical or near-spherical work envelopes that can be positioned in a polar coordinate system. Sounds pretty smart - you are free to use this if you want to impress a girl with your wit.</p>
