Manual robotic system

We have had a look at the autonomous robotic architecture. Manual robotics also deal with a similar architecture; the only difference being that we have a fully-fledged controller that is responsible for most of the action:

Manual robot architecture

We've added a receiver and a transmitter unit here which would have been present in the earlier use case as well. When dealing with robotics, the entire architecture falls under the same roof.

Manual robotics may not be limited to only manual robots. It may be a blend of manual and autonomous functionality, because a fully manual robot may not typically be called a robot.
