ICT is used in the manufacture of cars. Computer has been used in the design, manufacture and the assembly. Robots are also used to make cars. When ICT is used in the design process of the car, they have a software for displaying the three dimensional image of the car and making simulating the air flow of the car. This software makes accurate drawings for the vehicle and send this information electronically to the machines which is known as the CAD/CAM process. Car manufacture also requires computers. The company’s aim is to produce cars at their limit of time. The disadvantage thing is to spend money on the cars that are waiting to be sold and customers wanting their car that they want, like the colors interiors. To make it easier to not make the cars wait for selling, the company asks for their color and the specific information about how their car should look like which makes them company easy to sell to each person. This reduces the costs of 30% since there are only on specific car that the customer wants. Building cars can be involved with computers like coating the body parts and making the car parts. Computerized robots makes the robots lift and move the parts for cars. Big factories use thousands of these robots. The robots were first used in 1962 by General Motors in US. These robots has a big advantage compared to workers, because it is cheap, faster operation, 24 hours per day, accurate, can handle heavy materials and work in dangerous areas.
