Robotoid
Encyclopedia
A robotoid is an "artificial lifeform" that is created through processes that are totally different from cloning
or synthetics.
Perhaps the first mention of "robotoid" was in the Lost in Space
episode War of the Robots which originally aired on February 9, 1966 and credits Robby the Robot
as a "robotoid" and William Bramley and Ollie O'Toole as uncredited "robotoid voice" actors. In the episode, the Lost in Space Robot says: It is more than a machine...it is a robotoid. The robot goes on to explain that as a robot, it is constrained by its programming, whereas the robotoid has the capability of making a choice
. The episode is described as: The family's robot is seemingly replaced when Will repairs a robotoid from an advanced civilization - until the new machine wreaks havoc by trying to take over the ship.
Piers Anthony
's short story Getting Through University, which may have been published as early as 1967/1968 in the science fiction magazine Worlds of If, mentions a robotoid.
In April 1968, Marvel Comics
released Avengers #51
which introduced "The Robotoid".
