W. Grey Walter's "tortoises", developed between 1948 and 1949. These autonomous robots, named Elmer and Elsie, were designed to mimic simple animal behaviors using analog electronics. They could navigate their environment, respond to light stimuli, and avoid obstacles, demonstrating early principles of artificial intelligence and robotics.
