ROBOTS: YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW

Will there be a Bonda for every Devi by the year 2085? We’ll have to wait and see, but there is no denying that robots will be far more visible even in 25 years from now, by the year 2040.

WHO OR WHAT IS A ROBOT?

If you said a robot is a machine that looks and acts like a human, except it moves jerkily, has a flat, expressionless voice, and eyes that flash when it is turned on, you’ve obviously been watching too many movies and TV shows. Because, actually, a robot is “any electro-mechanical machine guided by a computer program or electronic circuits”.

Yup, it doesn’t have to look like a human at all. Which is why you may not have realised that there are robots all around us, already!
