Droid 類人機(jī)器人
Droid, or a robot in human-like form, is a shortened form of android which was used as early as the 1700s. Droid was first published in the 1950s in magazines like If that printed sci-fi short stories. The 1977 film franchise Star Wars brought droid into mainstream usage.
Droid是android的簡(jiǎn)稱,意為類人機(jī)器人。Android一詞早在18世紀(jì)就有,droid則是1950年代才在《If》等刊登科幻小說的雜志上出現(xiàn)。1977年的《星球大戰(zhàn)》電影系列使類人機(jī)器人這個(gè)詞開始被大量使用。
