Robot? Origin ?
The term "robot" was first used in 1920 in a play called "R.U.R." Or "Rossum's universal robots" by the Czech writer Karel Capek. Karakuri(http://www.tofugu.com/2011/11/30/first -japanese-robots-karakuri-ningyo/)

Robotics History

Robotics Terminology
The term 'robotics' refers to the study and use of robots. The term was coined and first used by the Russian-born American scientist and writer Isaac Asimov (born Jan. 2, 1920, died Apr. 6, 1992). He also wrote the three Laws of Robotics for which he is also famous. I Robot (1950)

Robotics History
However, robots of today are not exactly the walking, talking intelligent machines of movies, stories and our dreams. Today, we find most robots working for people in factories, warehouses, and laboratories. (1980) In the future, robots may show up in other places: our schools our homes, even our bodies. (1980)

Definition
"A reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through various programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks" Robot Institute of America, 1979 Japanese Industrial Robot Association (JIRA) :
A device with degrees of freedom that can be controlled. Class 1 : Manual handling device Class 2 : Fixed sequence robot Class 3 : Variable sequence robot Class 4 : Playback robot Class 5 : Numerical control robot Class 6 : Intelligent robot

What was robotics ? What is robotics ?

Before 1970 Before 2000
Robot means Humanlike creature inspired by movie and animation Robot means industrial robots Robotics means robot manipulator and control A Robot is a re-programmable or multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or special devices, through variable programmed motion by RIA (Robotics Industry Association) Inspired by Asimo Humanlike machines or intelligent machines Interactive machines with various modalities Service robots ( Surgical robots) Study of those machines that can replace human in the execution of a tak as regards both physical activity and decision making.
