Slide 1 – Title Slide
• Title: Recent Trends in Industrial Automation
• Subtitle: How Robots and Smart Machines are Changing Industries
• Picture: Robot arm + factory background
Part 1: Introduction (30 mins)
Slide 2 – What is Automation?
• Doing work automatically without much human effort.
• Examples: Washing machine, ATM, Automatic streetlights.
Slide 3 – Why Automation in Industries?
• Speed
• Safety
• Accuracy
• Cost saving
Part 2: Robots in Industries (40 mins)
Slide 4 – Types of Industrial Robots
• Welding robots
• Painting robots
• Assembly line robots
Slide 5 – Cobots (Collaborative Robots)
• Robots that work with humans safely.
• Example: Helping in car assembly.
Slide 6 – Humanoid Robots
• Robots that look and act like humans (e.g., Tesla Optimus, Boston Dynamics
Atlas).
Part 3: Smart Technologies (40 mins)
Slide 7 – Sensors in Automation
• Temperature sensor: controls heating/cooling.
• Motion sensor: detects movement.
• Camera/AI vision: checks product quality.
Slide 8 – Internet of Things (IoT) in Industry
• Machines connected to the internet.
• Example: Factory machines sending alerts to smartphones.
Slide 9 – Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Automation
• AI predicts machine breakdowns.
• AI checks quality of products faster than humans.
Slide 10 – Digital Twins & AR/VR
• Digital twin = virtual copy of a machine/factory.
• AR/VR used for worker training and repair guidance.
Part 4: Green Automation & Safety (30 mins)
Slide 11 – Green Factories
• Robots using less power.
• Solar-powered machines.
• Recycling robots.
Slide 12 – Drones & Self-Driving Vehicles
• Drones for warehouse inspection.
• Self-driving carts for delivery inside factories.
Slide 13 – Cybersecurity in Automation
• Why we need to protect robots and smart machines from hackers.
• Simple example: If someone hacks a factory robot, it could stop production.
Part 5: Future & Careers (20 mins)
Slide 14 – Industry 4.0 → Industry 5.0
• Industry 4.0 = smart factories with IoT & AI.
• Industry 5.0 = humans + robots working together.
Slide 15 – Careers in Automation
• Robotics engineer
• AI/ML specialist
• IoT engineer
• Automation technician
Slide 16 – Conclusion
• Automation = faster, safer, smarter industries.
• You (students) could build the next generation of robots!
