The History of Automata -return to top-
The beginnings of robotics started with clock and music box makers incorporation of their craft in toy dolls of mind-blowing intricacy between the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. The Jaquet-Droz Writer, for example, would actually write. The Vaucanson's Duck would preen it's feathers and simulate eating. For more fascinating details, please check the links below.
