What to Focus On

  • Robotics began with early mechanical imagination and automata.
  • The word robot first appeared in Karel Capek's play R.U.R. in 1920.
  • Alan Turing and Isaac Asimov strongly influenced modern ideas about machines and intelligence.
  • First generation robots are open-loop systems.
  • Second generation robots use sensors and simple feedback.
  • Third generation robots include autonomous robots and insect robots.
  • Robotics is the engineering field related to robots.
  • A robot needs sensors, actuators, a microprocessor, and communication tools.
  • Sensors collect information from the environment.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The word robot was first used in 1921.

The first robot toy was Lilliput in 1930s Japan, so it was also the first true robot.

Asimov introduced the Three Laws only in Runaround in 1942, so Liar! has nothing to do with them.
