	TCS Daily - R2D2 vs. C3PO
		If Dr. Joseph F. Engelberger has his way, machines will be rising that much sooner, with a robot - perhaps a few of them - in your home by the end of the decade, but they'll be much more benign than Arnold's T-800 and his counterparts.
		Engelberger describes himself as "the nominal 'father of robotics'", and it's certainly a reasonable title, considering that his company installed the first robots on an assembly line for General Motors in 1961.
		And while factory robots have grown to an $8.5 billion industry, with over 200,000 robots now in service, Engelberger believes the most pressing need for a robot is as an aide to the elderly and the infirm, the need for which could dwarf the number of robots in factories.

	History of Robots
		They can do repetitive work that is absolutely boring to people and they will not stop, slow down, or fall to sleep like a human.
		The first company to produce an industrial robot was Unimation, founded by Joseph F. Engelberger in 1962, with the basic inventions of George Devol.
		Unimation robots were also called programmable transfer machines since their main use at first was to transfer objects from one point to another, less than a dozen feet or so apart.
