Amazing Robots: All About the Thinking Machines

The word "robot" conjures up a variety of images, from R2D2 and C3PO, to human-like machines that exist to serve their makers. Some people may alternatively perceive robots as dangerous technological machines that will someday lead to the end of the human race, either by outsmarting or outmuscling us and taking over the world, or by turning us into completely technology-dependent beings who passively sit by and program robots to do all of our work. In fact, the first use of the word "robot" occurred in a play about mechanical men that are built to work on factory assembly lines and that rebel against their human masters. What is a Robot?
