Automation

Automation refers to using technology to perform tasks with minimal human intervention, leveraging sensors, controllers, software, and AI to execute repetitive or complex processes. It aims to increase accuracy, speed, and consistency while reducing costs and human error, enabling scalable operations, continuous monitoring, and data collection. Key domains include process automation, robotics, and software automation such as robotic process automation (RPA), with applications spanning manufacturing, IT, logistics, and service industries.
