The history of industrial robots is closely tied to George Devol, whose magnetic recording technology of the 1930s emphasized the need for factory automation. The need to have devices or things that can handle repetitive tasks dates back to ancient times when humans started looking for ways to relieve their burdens. For instance, the Greeks came up with these kinds of devices, which they called automata.
