A robot must protect its own existence unless that conflicts with the First or Second Law.

A robot must obey orders given by humans except when that conflicts with the First Law. According to Asimov`s robots, the ``three laws of robotics‘‘ are A robot should not injure a human being or through inaction, allow a human to be harmed. Nagrathĥ Laws of robotics Issaic Asimov conceived the robots as humanoids, devoid of feelings, and used them in a number of stories. Russian science fiction writer, Isac Asimov, coined the word robotics in his story `Runaround‘, published in 1942, to denote the science devoted to study of robots. NagrathĤ Evolution of robotics Czech writer, Karel Capek, introduced the word robot (forced labourer) in his drama to the world in 1921. Variably programmed operations make the execution of a multiplicity of tasks possible.
