THE PERSON TO INVENT THE WORD ROBOT.
WHAT IS A ROBOT?
• A robot is a mechanical or virtual agent ,usually an electro-mechanical machine that is guided by a computer program or electronic circuitry. Robots can be autonomous or semi-autonomous.
• The first industrial robot: UNIMATE
• 1954: The first programmable robot is designed by George Devol, who coins the term Universal Automation. He later shortens this to Unimation, which becomes the name of the first robot company (1962).
1978: The Puma (Programmable Universal Machine for Assembly) robot is developed by Unimation with a General Motors design support
1980s: The robot industry enters a phase of rapid growth. Many institutions introduce programs and courses in robotics. Robotics courses are spread across mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science departments.
1995-present: Emerging applications in small robotics and mobile robots drive a second growth of start-up companies and research
