The word "robot" comes from the Czech word "robota", which means "forced labor".

Then, the robot was born:
In fact, the history of robots is not too long. The history of robots really began in 1959, when Ingeborg and Devall in the United States made the world's first industrial robot.
Engelberg University studied servo theory, which is a theory to study how the motion mechanism can better track the control signal. De Waal invented a system in 1946, which can "repeat" the recorded machine actions. 1954, Dewar obtained the patent of programmable manipulator. This kind of manipulator works according to the program and can make different programs according to different work needs, so it has universality and flexibility. Both engelberg and Dewar are studying robots, and think that robots are most suitable for the automobile industry, because it works with heavy machines and the production process is relatively fixed. 1959, engelberg and Dewar cooperated to produce the first industrial robot.
Robots developed in the past 100 years have roughly experienced three growth stages, that is, three times. The first generation is a simple individual robot, the second generation is a group labor robot, and the third generation is an intelligent robot similar to humans. Its future development direction is conscious, thinking and talking with people.
