The Impacts of Industrial Robots

Industrial robots are machine tools. They are not humanlike androids which cm stroll around and converse like the famed R2D2 and C3PO of Star Wars. More realistically, they are programmable manipulators which can move parts or tools through a prespecified sequence of motions.
