Robots can and are used for many different things like making watches and welding as well as other areas in engineering. They have also been known to be used in medicine for making very fine incisions.

In the late 20th century, industrial robots came into widespread use because they could operate with greater accuracy and at a lower cost than human workers. They are also used to perform jobs that are too dangerous or undesirable for humans, such as changing filters in a radioactive environment or performing highly repetitive, boring assembly work.

Robots are used in the mass production of consumer goods, assembly and packing, transportation, exploration (such as the Mars rover), surgery laboratory research, and by the military. They are becoming more common as household robots (for example, the Roomba robotic floor cleaner).
