At the dawn of the Age of Robots, this publication takes a look back and forward on human ideas of robots from the 1960's until today.

"Robots" the word itself conjures up various images in our minds, from science fiction films to visions of the future - both utopian and dystopian. In industry, robots have been carrying out many of our most difficult and monotonous tasks since the 1960's. Today, they have found their way out of factories and research laboratories and into our everyday lives. Robotic Worlds presents outstanding robots and robot toy figures from the 1960's to the present day: robots that are considered pioneers for the introduction of robotics in households or in the medical field as well as all kinds of gaming robots. They show both the human fantasies and utopian worlds associated with robots, as well as the various shapes and designs of real, functional robots.
