In the 1970s, the futurologists, that is, those who project the evolution of society based on scientific achievements, claimed that by the year 2000 there would probably be a robot that would replace the vast majority of manual work, even if robots humanoids would be the largest. achievement of humanity.

From what was written by Isaac Asimov, to whom the term "Robot" is attributed and his famous laws of robotics, it was thought that in approximately thirty or forty years robots would be an everyday occurrence.

Actually, the use of humanoid robots are not very common today, even more so if we are surrounded by robots, but we are not aware of how they impact us and how close they are, today I want to talk about those robots that go unnoticed but that they are there in our environment.

At first we must indicate, it should be considered as a robot, any machine capable of executing tasks independently of the human being, these activities could be supervised but independent of permanent manipulation, that is, they act by themselves. One of the most common robotic machines that we are accustomed to are bank tellers that dispense money.

Automated systems are already a reality that we let go without considering them, there are robot vacuum cleaners in homes, toys are a very frequent market mechanism, thus we have seen robot dogs for more than 15 years, today within the Drones, those manned by cell phones, are the simplest, but the merchandise delivery drone that is being used in some US cities by the Amazon company is another mechanism. The most recent and most surprising is the Shef robot, which is capable of of cooking in your home and that he can learn how to do it just by watching the way you cook.

The waiting for humanoid robots today is possible, especially in Japan they are used to serve as assistants to the elderly, of course until now the human aspect is not yet possible, but it can be understood that under the promise of many entrepreneurs as a robot of Elon Musk, owner of the Tesla companies, claim that in the future we will have 100% functional and independent humanoid robots thanks to Artificial Intelligence.
