'''Robotics'' '''''is a [[talent badge]] in ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'' and a [[skill]] in ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]''.
==The Sims 2: Open for Business==
[[File:Tinkering 2.png|left]]In ''The Sims 2: Open for Business'', Sims can use the [[Robot Crafting Station]] to build robots, earning talent badge points along the way. At Gold level, Sims are able to build the [[Servo]], an advanced and intelligent robot that can be used for chores around the house.
===Badges===
==
Sims with no robotics badge will only be able to craft [[#Toy Robot|Toy Robots]].
====Bronze====
[[File:Robotics bronze.png|left]]
A Sim will attain the Bronze Robotic Talent badge after quite a bit of time making Toy Robots. By acquiring the Bronze badge, Toy Robots are made faster and a new type of robots, called Roverbots, are available to build. With a Bronze badge, building a Roverbot will take about two game hours. Two types Roverbots can be built - [[#CleanBot|CleanBots]] and [[#HydroBot|HydroBots]].
{{clr}}
====Silver====
[[File:Robotics silver.png|left]]
Acquiring the Silver Robotics Talent badge gives Sims the ability to create Toy Robots and Roverbots at a faster pace. It also gives Sims access to the new Hoverbots. Unlike Roverbots, Hoverbots can move up and down stairs. With a Silver badge, building a Hoverbot takes about two game hours. Two types of Hoverbots can be built - [[#SentryBot|SentryBots]] and [[#MunchieBot|MunchieBots]].
{{clr}}
====Gold====
[[File:Robotics gold.png|left]]
Achieving the Gold Robotics Talent badge allows Sims to make Toy Robots, Roverbots, and Hoverbots much faster. It also opens up the option to build [[Servo#The Sims 2|Servos]].
{{clr}}
===Craftables===
[[File:Sentrybot shocking.jpg|thumb|right|150px|A SentryBot shocks an evil mascot]]Sims who attain the robotics badges will be able to build useful robots. Robots can be sold from a Sim's inventory, directly from the Robot Crafting Station, or in a Sim-owned [[business]]. Crafting a robot costs a certain amount of Simoleons for every robot started, depending on the type of robot being built. Some bots can only be built after getting the bronze, silver, or gold-level badge.

}}'''CleanBot''' - Basically a robot that cleans up the lot it is activated in. The major shortcoming of this robot is that it can only clean up items that are on the floor or ground. In other words, it can't clean counters or showers or sinks, nor can it dispose of anything that's on a surface. However, it can empty trash cans by opening them and vacuuming out their contents, though it cannot empty trash compactors. It will not empty a toddler's potty or clean a cat's litter pan, but will vacuum up dishes or baby bottles placed on the floor, but will ignore discarded cups from the fruit punch machine. It will also vacuum up puddles, even those under other objects, and can do so safely so long as it does not come in contact with the water. A CleanBot will vacuum up old [[newspaper]]s, but will apparently ignore worn-out [[Magazine#Hobby Magazines|hobby magazines]]. A CleanBot can clean up after a [[Dog#The Sims 2: Pets|dog]], or behind a broken HydroBot. If the outside garbage can is kicked or tipped over, it will clean up the spilled garbage. When broken, it will go around spewing out packages of trash. (Of course, it can be used to clean them up after it's fixed.)

Line 119 ⟶ 122:
'''Servo''' is a special craftable robot that can be controlled by the player, much like other Sims. Building a Servo costs §3000, and takes about eight to twelve game hours, not counting breaks.
When a Servo is built, it is switched off and can only be activated by a Sim ([[teen]] or older) if there is room in the household for another member. The Servo can be activated as male or female, and can be given a name when activated. The Servo takes on the personality, aspiration, and last name of the Sim who activates it. If [[Aspiration bar#Lifetime Aspiration|Lifetime Aspiration]] is present, the Servo will have five [[Aspiration benefit]] points when activated. If ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime|FreeTime]]'' is installed, the Servo will not take on the [[hobby]] [[enthusiasm]] of the Sim who activates it, and may or may not have the same predestined hobby.
A Servo can only be activated on a residential lot, not on a community lot. Since an activated Servo is considered an [[adult]], a Servo cannot be activated in a [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]] [[sub-neighborhood]]. If a Sim tries to activate a Servo in a college sub-neighborhood, the player will be informed that only students and faculty are permitted to live on-campus. An activated Servo cannot be sold.

===Notes and tips===
*Due to an oversight by the developers, the [[repairman]] will not repair broken Toy Robots, though they can still be repaired by playable Sims. A fix for this is available [http://forum.jfade.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=37 at DJS Sims]
*Broken RoverBots that have been turned off may spontaneously turn back on before they are repaired.
Line 144 ⟶ 147:
** This can be seen if a robot - more commonly seen among RoverBots - cannot reach something. As a result, it will visibly complain like a human Sim does.

==The Sims 4: Discover University==
[[File:Skill TS4 Robotics.png|left|55px]]Robotics is a skill in ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]'' that allows Sims to build [[Drone#The Sims 4: Discover University|Utili-Bots]], [[Remote control vehicle|Quadcopters]], [[Servo#The Sims 4|Servos]], cybernetic body armor, and robotic toys. There is a university organization Sims can join to work on this skill.<ref name="Robotics skill">https://twitter.com/SimGuruFrost/status/1187069258343141376</ref>

Sims who attain the robotics skill can craft robotcs at the Dr. F's Official Robotics Workstation. Robots can be sold in the Sim's inventory, in build mode, or in retail stores from ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work|Get to Work]]''. As Sims level up their robotics skill, they will craft more types of robots and constructions.
