At present mostly (lead-acid) batteries are used as a power source. Many different types of batteries can be used as a power source for robots. They range from lead acid batteries which are safe and have relatively long shelf lives but are rather heavy to silver cadmium batteries that are much smaller in volume and are currently much more expensive. Designing a battery powered robot needs to take into account factors such as safety, cycle lifetime and weight. Generators, often some type of internal combustion engine, can also be used. However, such designs are often mechanically complex and need fuel, require heat dissipation and are relatively heavy. A tether connecting the robot to a power supply would remove the power supply.

What does VEX stand for robotics?
you mean what does vex stand for? Oh, it dosen't stand for anything, last year we were at the world championships and my teacher actually asked the president of Vex Robotics and he said that they pretty much chose it because it sounded cool.
Who is is Michael Mcclelland?
He is Great at robotics and he is the team captain of 1107A which came top fifth in vex world championship. His team has Usman, Nathan, and Kyle who were all involved in the successful year in Vex Robotics. In Province of British Columbia they won Excellence award which is the most Honorable award in BC robotics. They were the best team in Vex Robotics in whole B.C and Washington Area. They are way better then 1107C and 1107 B because they are the most successful. G.J Vex Robotics 2011
How do you make robots which can be prepared by kids?
At a hobby shop, you can find various robotics kits suitable for children. Personally, I recommend the VEX robotics kit if you think the children may be serious about robotics. It is more expensive, but the kit comes with almost everything you'll need for the entire robotics experience from building to programming.
What is vex robotics?
Vex robotics is a commercially available method of building robots... somewhat like lego mindstorms, only more advanced. you can purchase parts from vex such as motors, frame material, circuit boards, radio controls, sensors, etc. all of the parts are made to fit, which is helpful when building a robot. most of the parts are not as powerful or as efficient as other motors out there, and most of the parts are more expensive. however, as i said before, construction is a lot more simple

What can you tell me about Robotics?
At my school, we have a robotics team, in which we do the following competitions: BEST, VEX, MATE, FRC and more. Basically, robotics is a club in which a bunch of nerds and geeks come together to build a robot, and to have fun and make new friends :) Here are the websites of the competitions we do: http://best.eng.auburn.edu/ http://www.vexrobotics.com/ http://www.marinetech.org/rov_competition/ http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/default.aspx?id=966
From where to start for robotics im an mechanical engineer student?
In my experience, the best place to start learning about robotics is the VEX kits. The kits come with the components, software, and a manual describing just about everything you need to know about that kit. It's a great place to start learning about the different systems of a robot and how they interact with each other.
Can you get a robotics degree online?
There are a couple of dozen institutions which offer degrees in Robotics. Many of them over some courses online, but none of them can be totally completed online.
