Robots, as we understand them today, originated from concepts in ancient history, but the term "robot" was first used in the early 20th century. The word comes from the Czech play "R.U.R." (Rossum's Universal Robots) written by Karel Čapek in 1920, which depicted artificial beings created to serve humans. Early mechanical devices resembling robots appeared during the Industrial Revolution, but modern robotics began to take shape with advancements in electronics and computer technology in the mid-20th century.
