Description

It can be defined as an art of using software robots to interact with Software applications and IT systems to automate the rule-based manual jobs associated with repetitive and transactional processes. The robot mimics the interactions of an employee with a system's user interface.

When we hear word “Robot”, we start imagining of machines on a shop floor building cars or repairing aircraft engines etc, but the “robots” involved in robotic process automation aren’t robots in the physical sense. Rather, they are software that resides on a PC and interacts directly with business applications.
