have become a common sight in japanese factories. It is estimated that as many
as sixty percent of japanese manufacturing firms now have industrial robots or
other equepment. While the robots in japanese factories are mostly one type-faceless,
bodiless, one-arm robots whisch most do work of the shoulders, elbow, wrist,
and finger of a human, American factories, the firs country to invent and
develovp the simple industrial robot, have been slow to use them. American scientist
have been busy developing more-like robots which can work in homes and offices.

japannese factories? Well, it is clear that there are mani advantages. Robots have
taken over many of the hot, dirty, dangerous, tiring, and boring job on the
production line, especially in car factories. Secondly, robots are small,
strong, and easy to use and look after, and are quete cheap. They work faster
and better than humans. They also make fewer mistakes and the quality of their
