It was science fiction made true, robotic engineering in a pre-electronic age, machines far in advance of anything that Victorian technology could create, a machine we would later know as the robot.
Eram ficção científica tornada realidade, engenharia robótica da era pré-eletrónica, máquinas mais avançadas do que quaisquer outras que a era vitoriana conseguia criar, a máquina a que mais tarde chamámos de robô.
