Robots frequently star in science fiction movies and books. But, that wasn't enough and they began jumping off the screen and into reality recently. So if you have some things you'd like a robot to do, you'd better make a list right now. That's because they may be here faster than you can snap your hungers.

In Hong Kong, for example, customers were once attracted to some restaurants not because of the food, but because of a robot waiter. The robot greeted customers and took their orders. The customers could give the names of the dishes they wanted by tapping on the robot's screen to complete the order. Robot Waiter l, as is known, can only take orders — it still can't cook. But restaurant owners say they have plans to add a robot-chief to the staff in the near future. In October, hundreds of robots around the world showed up in Suzhou for the Robot Cup, a World Cup Soccer Game for robots. And at the end of last month, a robot Albert Einstein was on display in New York. He not only gave physics classes but also identified different faces with a camera in his eyes. Although some people are afraid of the robot revolution — scifi (科幻小说) novelist Isaac Asimov described this in his work Robot Revolution, the Making of I, but more people want to enjoy the fascinating world that robots can bring us in the future.
