This document provides an overview of robotics for two students, Zoey and Kaya. It discusses the fundamentals and history of robotics, including important figures like Asimov and Capek. Robots are depicted as children that humanity must educate to reach their potential and support human endeavors. The document highlights robots in movies, intelligent machines of the future like self-driving cars and humanoids, and current robotics including Boston Dynamics robots and the Mars Perseverance rover. Future applications of robotics discussed are in space exploration and factories.

Robots are the children of humanity. It is our job to educate them well
so they can reach their potential and support us in our future endeavors.
As with all children, at some point they will hopefully become mature enough
to take the lead in planning their activities in collaboration with their parents.

Robots will explore the Solar System many years before any human voyages.
The only exception will be the moon. Robots will be the only way to explore nearby
interstellar space unless a way is found to overcome the speed of light barrier.
