Can a robot generate a random private key with address and store it so that i can't access it or anyone else except the robot itself , so that this address and the btc it holds (i will send to) can be spend by the robot only , in another form i want to build a robot so it can generate his own address and keep the key secret even from me the builder.

Sure. Bitcoin transactions require no human. A robot can generate addresses, send bitcoins, receive them and everything else. No one does these things by hand anyway, we use software for this and you just run commands.

But how can the robot store the private key so even if i hacked or tried in anyways to recover the private key i can't , so it's a lost bitcoin for anyone else except that robot

Now you are asking questions about robots and not Bitcoin...
I can just tell you that Bitcoin as a protocol sees no difference between humans and robots, it requires no personal identity.

If you can hack a robot in such a way that you can control it, then you can just ask it to display you the private keys, that is obvious.
