We don’t know how hard something is to do until we try it. That’s especially true when it comes to robotics. 

Crazy Hard Robots tells the stories of crazy-smart people and the ‘crazy hard’ problems they solved when creating technology of the future. Listeners journey through the robotics ecosystem, exploring both common (“Will robots take my job?”) and uncommon topics (“The economics of robotics”), as we debunk the myths about what robots can and can’t do, and talk about innovations that are around the corner.
