Etymology

The term 'transformer' originated in the field of electricity in the late 19th century to describe a device that could transform electrical energy from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction. The concept of transformers later inspired the creation of the popular fictional characters known as Transformers, which are sentient robots capable of changing their form.
