Robots are automatically operated machines that work in place of humans. It is not necessary
                 that they look like humans by appearance or perform exactly like humans. Robotics is a
                 branch of engineering and science that deals with the design, construction and functioning
                 of robots.






                    The first industrial robot was introduced to the U.S. in the 1960s.
