Robotics Summit & Expo Keynotes

Concept to Actuality: Commercializing Robotics Applied sciences

Howie Choset, Professor of Robotics, Carnegie Mellon College
Could 10: 8:45 AM – 9:30 AM

Turning a know-how developed inside a lab right into a profitable robotics firm isn’t any simple process. Howie Choset has executed this a number of instances with corporations resembling Medrobotics (surgical robots), Hebi Robotics (modular robots) and Bito Robotics (robotic software program). Choset will share insights in regards to the robotics startups he based and greatest practices for taking technological innovation from an thought to actuality.

Inside Motional’s Autonomous Automobile Journey

Laura Main, CTO, Motional
Could 10: 10:45 AM – 11:30 AM

Laura Main will element the key technical challenges concerned with growing autonomous automobiles. She can even present updates on current deployments and what the longer term holds for autonomous automobiles. Motional and Uber lately launched their public robotaxi service in Las Vegas.

Growing Robots for Closing Frontiers

Nicolaus Radford, Founder & CEO, Nauticus Robotics
Could 11: 9 AM – 9:45 AM

Area is often known as the “last frontier.” However Nicolaus Radford and the workforce at Nauticus Robotics imagine the world’s oceans are of the utmost near-term precedence (and largely unexplored) last frontier. Based by former NASA engineers, Nauticus is main the best way by growing novel ocean robotic platforms for unprecedented methods of working in and exploring the aquatic area, whereas difficult the less-than-desirable and archaic paradigm of the legacy business. The corporate’s imaginative and prescient is to turn out to be probably the most impactful ocean robotics firm and to disrupt the present ocean providers paradigm by means of the combination of autonomous robotic applied sciences. The deep sea is huge, stuffed with potential, and but stays largely as uncharted as house itself – and Nauticus is on the forefront of unlocking its prospects.

This keynote will chart Radford’s journey from growing humanoid robotics for house and leveraging that have to type Nauticus and its revolutionary ocean robotics portfolio. His work at NASA closely influenced the developments at Nauticus as the corporate develops robots able to aiding in nationwide safety, repairing oil pipelines, and inspecting windfarms — all whereas considerably decreasing emissions and hazards to human counterparts. Throughout his keynote, Radford will present insights about each environments, focus on the enterprise and know-how of Nauticus’ present work and clarify his imaginative and prescient for the way forward for ocean know-how and robotics.

The Way forward for Surgical Robotics

Martin Buehler, World Head of Robotics R&D, Johnson & Johnson MedTech
Could 11: 10 AM – 10:45 AM

Johnson & Johnson, one of many world’s main healthcare corporations, offers an inside have a look at the end-to-end improvement of its Monarch and Ottava robotics platforms, in addition to technique and innovation cadence throughout surgical robotics for MedTech.

The Subsequent Decade in Robotics

Marc Raibert, Govt Director, The AI Institute
Could 11: 4 PM – 4:45 PM

This fireplace chat with Marc Raibert will focus on alternatives for the robotics business and crucial and troublesome challenges dealing with the creation of superior robots. It should additionally describe how the brand new Boston Dynamics AI Institute is pushing the boundaries of technological innovation to unravel these challenges.
