Talk:History of robots

message: To my knowledge this has never been reproduced nor are there any diagrams of it's inner workings; Are there reputable sources for it actually functioning? Why is this not under legends?
: I agree that this is probably in the wrong place. Wikipedia's article on Archytas mentions that the oldest reference to the Pigeon is from five centuries after Archytas' death. Furthermore, the reference currently given in this article doesn't even mention Archytas or his bird. Scharmör (talk) 23:00, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Archytas's bird

message: The third current source is ref name=BBC but while the source number appears on the reference list the source info doesn't. I'll be back later but if somebody wants to fix it in the meantime go for it. Wakedream (talk) 08:21, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Ref name=BBC

message: Johannes Muller von Konigsburg is attributed as having made a flying automaton in 1533. he died in 1476. It also cites the BBC bio on Richard Arkwright. Seriously, what was that?   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.20.197.110 (talk) 00:36, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Attention needed (Robotics project) 

message: I don't think the history of robots article should cover the history of computers or of textile technology. It's also quite top heavy, with a huge amount on premodern robots, which, let's face it, were not very interesting.Noodleki (talk) 12:39, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
