Robots aren’t coming—they’re already here, quietly stacking cars, sweeping kitchens, delivering packages, and assisting surgeons. Robots Among Us strips away the shiny hype and shows, in plain language and sharp examples, how real robots work (sensors, motors, software), what tasks they actually do well, where they fail, and why those limits matter for jobs, safety, and daily life.You’ll get clear, classroom-ready explanations and no-nonsense reality checks—factory arms vs. Roombas, teleoperated surgery, warehouse fleets, and the privacy trade-offs in smart homes. Read this to spot useful tech from marketing, ask smarter questions at work or school, and understand how to live with machines that are powerful but not omnipotent. Turn the lock and see what’s really inside the machine.
