In 1494 Leonardo da vinci made a robot which could move it's head and arms. It was the first robot in the history of mankind. Then in 1928 British built their first robot named 'Eric'. In the year 1937 a robot named 'Elektro' was built by 'Westinghouse Electric Corporation'. This robot could walk by voice command, speak about 700 words, smoke cigarettes,  move it's head and arms.

Robot in present days:
As time passes Robots become more complex. Now a days robots looks like human, they are called Humanoid Robot. They can walk, have conversation with human, play musical instruments, solve difficult calculations etc. With the help of programming  engineers are able to build highly efficient robots which can work very fast.
                                                                  Though robots are highly advanced now a days but they don't have any emotions.They can't make decision on their own.

      1. They are very fast and efficient.
        2. Robots make our life more comfortable and easy.
        3. Robots can go to the places where human can't reach.
        4. They help us in research.
                              Disadvantages of Robots:
       1. Robots are emotionless.
       2. They can not think like human.
       3. They can not make their own decision.
