0896 History of Robotics The word robot was introduced to the public by Czech writer Karel Capek in his play R.U.R Rossum's Universal Robots, which premiered in1921. The word robotics was first used in print by Isaac Asimov, in his science fiction short story Liar!, published in May 1941 in Astounding Science Fiction. Asimov was unaware that he was coining the term since the science and technology of electrical devices is electronics, he assumed robotics already referred to the science and technology of robots
