The paper describes a case of good terminological practice in the field of automatic control, systems and robotics. It presents the history and the outcomes of terminological work in this field, firstly the Slovenian Terminological Dictionary of Automatic Control, Systems and Robotics, which has been has been very well accepted by the wider control community in Slovenia. The feedback from the community encouraged the authors to adapt and upgrade the Slovenian dictionary to the monolingual English Terminological Dictionary of Automatic Control, Systems and Robotics. The objective of both terminological dictionaries is to collect and unify, as far as possible, the terminology in the field of automatic control, dynamic systems and robotics. The dictionaries represent a helpful resource for students, as well as experts in the field. We firmly believe that well-defined and harmonized terminology is essential for ensuring noiseless communication between experts. Therefore, the Terminological Dictionary of Automatic Control, Systems and Robotics is expected to provide a considerable boost to the development of the field.
