INTRODUCTION.  . Robot Welding . is a process of joining different materials. . The . large bulk of materials that are welded are metals and their alloys although welding is also applied to the joining of other materials such as thermoplastics. “Making cogs turn”.

Perform dangerous tasks in toxic environments. Even in less dangerous tasks, human-robot interaction is minimal. HCI research by Reeves and Nass shows that “a social interface may be a truly universal interface”. humans. This research was conducted in order to develop a method of mapping carried out primarily by Lego Mindstorms EV3 robots. The robots were made to use leJOS, allowing them to run Java programs. An algorithm was developed that would make a robot traverse an area, scanning the terrain at a frequency chosen by the user, allowing a balance of speed and precision. One robot can map a flat area of user-given dimensions with satisfactory precision. When additional robots are added, the mapping process is much faster. Based on the number of robots, the area is divided into smaller sections which are then scanned by individual robots. This research shows that robotic mapping systems are viable..
