Assertion (A): An automatic control system operates independently with the help of a controller.
Reason (R): It means that this control system requires continuous human intervention and decision-making to perform the desired tasks.
Based on the above discussion, choose an appropriate statement from the options given below:
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.
- A is false but R is true.
- Both A and R are false.

Answer
A is true but R is false.
Reason — An automatic control system operates independently with the help of a controller, without requiring human intervention. However, the reason statement is incorrect because continuous human intervention is a feature of a manual control system, not an automatic one.

The seamless integration of sensors, actuators and controllers is essential for an effective robotic system. It maintains precision and operate autonomously, with the controller managing complex interactions between sensors and actuators in real time. Each of these components has its own role in a robotics system.
Read the following statements and identify the components used in a robotic system.
(a) It provides input by detecting environmental conditions (like temperature, distance or pressure) or internal states (such as position or speed), sending this information to the controller.
(b) It acts as the brain of the system and after processing sensor data, makes decisions based on programmed algorithms. It determines the necessary actions for the robot to perform tasks accurately.
(c) Finally, it executes the actions and converting electrical signals from the controller into mechanical movement, such as turning a wheel, moving a robotic arm or gripping an object.
