Robotics 機(jī)器人學(xué)

While the noun robotics is commonplace today, it wasn't back in the 1941 when sci-fi writer Isaac Asimov coined the term in a short story published in Astounding Science Fiction. It took another 20 years before the term really took off, and by the 1980s, robotics had firmly planted itself in the English language.

雖然今天聽起來很常見，但機(jī)器人學(xué)這個(gè)名詞其實(shí)是1941年才出現(xiàn)的，當(dāng)時(shí)科幻作家艾薩克·阿西莫夫在《Astounding Science Fiction》上發(fā)表的一篇短篇小說中創(chuàng)造了這個(gè)詞。過了20年它才真正被接受，到1980年代，機(jī)器人學(xué)這個(gè)詞終于進(jìn)入英語語言中。
