History of robots The first robots were large robotic arms; they used to move according to programming. The innovators knew that people would not like machines who take over people's jobs. Therefore initially they focused on shifting dangerous or harmful jobs to robotic technology. This strategy was successful and they started to use the robotic technology at harmful jobs and in potentially dangerous situations such as welding and lifting heavy machinery. With automated robotic technology, robotics engineers work hard over the last few decades to mesh new technological developments, like the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI). Companies that have their own warehouses in their supply chains love the results that effective automation can bring. The following are the factors on which robots are operated in warehouses autonomously. • AI and machine learning • Better sensors and response capability • Warehouse management software Types of robots in the
