The document discusses the key components and design considerations for building an automated robot, including:
1) Robots require sensors to gather input, a microcontroller for processing and decision making, actuators like motors to generate movement, and a power source.
2) Common sensors include light sensors like LDR and phototransistors, while motors can be DC motors controlled through motor drivers or stepper motors for precision.
3) Microcontrollers require analog to digital conversion, voltage regulation, and motor drivers or H-bridges to interface with sensors and actuators safely and control speed, direction and movement.
