Describe different types of output devices in a robot with examples?

What Type of current that almost all electronics devices use?

The question is much too vague. Electronic devices can be designed to allow for direct or alternating current. Examples are your home DVD player plugged into the receptacle which is 120 volt alternating current and your ipod which uses battery direct current power. Small portable devices are usually direct current (battery power ). The plug that comes with such devices is for charging the battery. Or the device may internally rectify the alternating current and turn it into dc power.


What is a raster device?

Common examples of raster devices are computer monitors (e.g. cathode ray tube, LCD). The term "raster device" means a device that is composed of discrete image samples or pixels.


Why output devices are required?

A display device such as a screen or monitor is an output device. Right from here we can already say that a display device is required to be able to visibly know what we are doing on a computer. (Even if you have a remote connection to that device you will be using a display device to view the contents of the remote device using another computers monitor.)Printers and speakers are examples of output devices. Printers are required to receive hard copies of information and Speakers are audio devices that are required to hear audible files.In short, without output devices will would not be able to view, hear, or hold data from a device.


Who discovered first robot?

Robotic devices were not "discovered", instead, automation has slowly evolved from simple devices to the computer controlled devices that we have today.
