In order for robots to physically interact with the physical world you can use different motion devices.  Among the more useful motion devices are servos and linear actuators.

Servos typically provide rotational motion useful for low force rotational movement.

Linear actuators are typically higher force linear motion devices capable of pushing and pulling higher loads or joints that pivot.
