EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in time - a schoolgirl engaging with a performing robot. Taken in Kursk, Russia, back in 1976, this image showcases the intersection of technology and education during the 20th century. In the photograph, an eleven-year-old girl can be seen programming the robot to perform various movements and sounds. This automaton possesses a basic repertoire of actions but lacks any decision-making abilities. It obediently follows its pre-programmed set of simple movements under the watchful eye of its young programmer. The significance of this scene lies not only in its historical context but also in highlighting how robotics was introduced into educational settings even several decades ago. The Soviet Union's focus on technological advancements is evident as they provide their students with hands-on experiences with machines like these. This snapshot serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and progress within the field of robotics. It reminds us that even at such an early stage, robots were being utilized for educational purposes, sparking curiosity and nurturing young minds. Preserved by RIA NOVOSTI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this print offers us a glimpse into an era when futuristic concepts were brought to life through simple yet awe-inspiring machines like this performing robot.
