An industrial robot arm, rather than a person, is the subject here, which sets this picture apart from the older photographs of printers and typesetters that hang nearby on the Books board. The scene shows a mechanical arm mid-motion, tracing letters onto a sheet of paper, a task that once belonged entirely to human hands. Automated handwriting machines of this kind grew out of the factory automation that spread through manufacturing from the mid-twentieth century onward, when engineers began programming arms to repeat precise movements. Pictures like this one capture the moment when the craft of writing and printing began to pass into machinery.
