This model represents one of Leonardo da Vinci's most intriguing designs. It is known as ‘Leonardo's automobile’, but recent studies consider it to be one of the first robots in history. The machine is drawn on folio 812/r/ of the Codex Atlanticus along with other devices. The robot's motor is hidden inside: a spring held in place by a stop mechanism transmits the movement to the gears that drive the wheels on the sides.
