Take an in-depth look at
the history and cultural impact of robots through the years in this educational
and interactive guide!
Robots are
everywhere-building cars, driving cars, performing surgery, helping soldiers and
fire fighters, even vacuuming! From high up in space to the bottom of the ocean,
robots are an instrumental part of how humans are learning about the
world.
This encyclopedic guide to
robotics takes kids through the evolution of robotic technology: from the
ancient Greek inventors, to the first robot at the World's Fair, to
nanotechnology already in use today, to D.I.Y. robotics, and even a peek into
the robotic future as told by the scientists creating it. And keeping readers
company along the way are many of our favorite robots from film and
TV.
Filled with interactive
inserts, Robotpedia takes a fun approach to STEM
learning.
