The concept of robots dates back to ancient times, with early examples found in Greek myths, such as the automaton Talos, and in inventions like Hero of Alexandria's mechanical devices in the first century AD. The term "robot" itself was popularized in the early 20th century by Czech writer Karel Čapek in his 1920 play "R.U.R." (Rossum's Universal Robots). Since then, the idea has evolved significantly, particularly with advancements in technology throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.

The traditional view of robots as semi-intelligent machines that can move around and behave like humans is a long way from the norm.

These industrial robots are normally firmly fixed into one place and have no chance of moving anywhere.
