ROBOTS
‘Robot’ comes from the Czech word ‘robota’ which means ‘work’ or labor’. A robot is a machine that
does the work of a human being.
Robots are used to perform repetitive tasks which require precision. For example, they are used to
manufacture cars. In the future robot might be used to perform surgical operations on people. A computer
could direct the procedure with great precision while human surgeon could check the progress of the
operation on large video screens.
Robots may soon become useful for doing unpopular household chores like sweeping and mopping.
Robots could also be used to do jobs which are unsafe for humans, like cleaning the site of a nuclear
accident.
