Service robots are put to work helping people in all sorts of locations, from hospitals and care homes to factories and restaurants. Among other amazing feats, robot helpers can produce one complete motor car every 30 seconds, prepare 300 pizzas an hour and reply to questions in 15 languages. In this book, aimed at children aged 8+, readers can meet these robot helpers and many more, then try a quick quiz to find out how much they have learned.
