Q&A with Cecilia Laschi – The Robotics Flagship
Why is a Robotics Flagship needed? Robotics is a solid technological field, with important market opportunities. Europe contributed significantly to the growth of knowledge in this field and it is competitive, both in science and in industry. A European investment in robotics, with a long-term vision on the scale of a FET-Flagship, can take advantage of European competitiveness to boost industry… → Read More
Robotics Flagship: What the community thinks
In February we asked for input from the robotics community regarding a potential Robotics Flagship, a pan European interdisciplinary effort with 1B EUR in funding, if successful! The goal of the flagship is to drive the development of future robots and AIs that are ethically, socially, economically, energetically, and environmentally responsible and sustainable. This is the first of many… → Read More
Robots in Depth with Sebastian Weisenburger
In this episode of Robots in Depth, Per Sjöborg speaks Sebastian Weisenburger about how ECHORD++ works, with application-oriented research bridging academia, industry and end users to bring robots to market, under the banner “From lab to market”. We also hear about Public end-user Driven Technological Innovation (PDTI) projects in healthcare and urban robotics. This interview was recorded in… → Read More

Rethink Robotics closes its doors
Baxter Robot from Rethink Robotics – Source: YouTube Rethink Robotics shut down this week, closing the chapter on a remarkable journey making collaborative robots a reality. This will come as a surprise and with sadness to the robotics community. I fondly remember interviewing Rodney Brooks, co-founder of the company, back in 2012 for the Robots Podcast. I’d toured the laboratory and was… → Read More
