Robots are mechanical systems that are controlled to achieve specific tasks, deemed too repetitive, too dangerous or too difficult for human beings. As a result, robotics is a vast interdisciplinary field, which draws on mathematics, mechanics, control theory, artificial intelligence, ergonomics… This chapter cannot, of course, pretend to exhaustiveness, and will limit itself to illustrating how interval analysis can contribute to the solution of three difficult problems.
