A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.

• Zeroth Law

• First Law

• Second Law

A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, unless this would violate a higher order law.

• Zeroth Law

These robots are just programs, building blocks of software inside a computer.

• Virtual Robots

• Remote-Control Robots

• Autonomous Robots

These robots are self supporting or in other words self contained. In a way they rely on their own ‘brains’.

• Virtual Robots

• Remote-Control Robots

• Autonomous Robots

These robots perform repeating tasks without ever moving an inch.

• Virtual Robots

• Stationary Robots

• Autonomous Robots

These robots have wheels to move around. They can quickly and easily search. However they are only useful in flat areas.

• Rolling Robots

• Stationary Robots

• Autonomous Robots

These robots are on legs are usually brought in when the terrain is rocky. Most robots have at least 4 legs; usually they have 6 or more.
