Most of us associate robots with films such as Star Wars, I, Robot or AI, but in reality they have more to do with social issues and politics rather than science fiction. The term robot first made its appearance in a play entitled Rossum's Universal Robots written almost a century ago by a Czechoslovakian playwright by the name of Karel Čapek. Čapek got the name robot from the Slavic word 'robota' which means forced labour. In his play, he portrays a society where robots, which look human, are mass produced to work in the place of people.
Čapek's story was well received by the critics but never really got credit for being the source of the notion of robots. The play has significant relevance to our society today, as humanoid−type robots are being created to fulfil a wide range of tasks. Robot engineers are not only developing mindless worker drones, but are attempting to create human−like companion robots for people. Consequently, the question of what actually makes us human is the subject of lively debate.
