The computer looks up and calculates the information for the robot to use through it's system. However, this is only my opinion.

Here's one thing they do, and it's an elaboration of the above idea: Think of the thermostat in your home (assuming you live in an area where you need heat during the cold season). If everything is working, when the temperature goes down a little bit the thermostat sends a signal to the furnace to send heat. When the temperature goes up, the thermostat sends a signal to stop sending heat. This feedback function means that the thermostat is a servomechanism. Computers in robots act as servomechanisms in several ways.

To take an idea right out of the air, you might imagine that some robots would have to have a gyroscope, or other kind of balance device inside. When the balance system detects that the robot is going a little too far to the left, the system can send signals to appropriate parts of the robot's workings in order to correct the robot's posi

ANSWER: Computer on a robot can be just like any computer for any machine it respond to input and give out output according to a program or software embedded into the robot. The robot may be very complex with multiple loops of servo or a simple as running a motor one way or the other. The robot can be as smart as the program allowed it to be. Basically is a dumb machine which as smart as the program installed into it.

Without programming a robot won't do anything (unless it is a puppet robot). It would just sit there.
