The First Automata Site

I think this in one of the first automata web sites I ever found using a search engine...probably Hotbot in those days. It's still a good reference despite the fact it was last updated in 1996!

Check out Automata Galleria hosted by NYU.

Shown here is Vaucanson'a famous duck automaton. He was also known for creating flute player. You can learn more about this flute player in Le Mecanisme Du Fluteur Automate
