From mechanical automata to modern-day androids, robotics are reshaping the world – explore more than 100 robots and discover how they work, who built them, and how they’re changing the lives of people everywhere. From drones used in battle to robot helpers caring for hospital patients, Robot reveals how robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming part of everyday life. Every robot, including service robots that pack food and rescue robots that locate people after a disaster, comes with its own profile explaining its features and uses.
The book is organised into clear sections based on the jobs a robot might do, making it easy to compare robots across different areas of science and life. Focused articles dig into specific features of robotics too, such as the ability to learn, helping readers understand the technology behind these fascinating machines. Packed with vibrant graphics, punchy colours, and a mind-bending array of information, this book makes one thing crystal clear: the robot revolution is here to stay.
