Artificial Homosapien: Exploring the Classical Inventions of Robotics in Human History

Abstract

One of the uniqueness of man between the Angels, Jinn, and the brute animals is the development of our Brain and to use knowledge to conquer nature. Such ingenuities are borne out of the Classical Theories of Robotics and Drones, and the making of artificial Homosapien to reach places where humans cannot survive such as in space, underwater, terrible heat, clean up, containment of hazardous materials, and radiation and detection and deactivation of bombs. This study explores the etymology of robotics in helping humanity domestically, commercially, militarily, and in embarking on research. It traces the threshold to the period of King Solomon (970 B.C. – 932 B.C.), a Prophet, King, Judge, Knowledgeable, Wealthy, Wise, and Powerful that speak the language of humans, jinn, animals, birds, insects, ants, and others. The study unveils how King Solomon inspired contemporary robotics, through the control the wind to fly the first airplane; used the jinn to build monuments, and Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem; and to acquire gold, brass, copper, and other minerals for wealth from the sea; and controlled birds for courier services and explore other territories. In narrative form, this investigation exposes how the concept of modern robots are developed in the Classical Times of the Islamic Empire between 7th and 16th Centuries, as inspired by King Solomon. Apart from juxtaposing how robots help in human labor, the study concludes that the artificial humans are of great benefits to humanity in exploring nature and to complement in management of human and material resources that replaces the factors of production in the new age of economics.
