Some Facts from the History of Robots
Attempts to create a mechanical being looking like a man, .and capable of carrying out work for him have permeated the history of civilization. The robots of today, industrial automa-tions and mechanisms, have no similarity with man, but, being faster and more accurate when working, replace him in carry-ing out monotonous or hazardous work.
The word "robot", which has become an international technological term, was coined in 1920 by Czech writer Karel Capek. Robot is one of the very few Slav words (in this case Czech) borrowed in the English language. It comes from the Old Slav word "robu" which means "a servant". In modem Slav the word "robotnic" means "workman". "Robot" came into general use in English only after 1923 following the great suc-cess of a play by Czech author Karel Chapek (1890-1938). Capek's play was called "R.U.R." which stood for "Possum's Universal Robots". Since then, the term "robot" has come to mean a mechanical man, often in recognizable human form, as well as a non-human machine that does work formerly only handed by man.
In 1950 Isaac Asimov, one of the outstanding science fic-tion writers of our time, wrote "I am a Robot", in which he set forth the "three principles of a robot" that determined the char-

acter of robots. These three principles were (1) a robot must do no damage to man, (2) a robot must be subprdinate to man, and (3) a robot must protect itself from damage. Asimov presumed that a robot must be subordinate to a man and useful for him, and this concept still holds good for today's industrial robots as well.
