Listen Later

Kym opens today show by reflecting on the public concern of robot overlords when IBM began developing smart machines in the 60’s. 50 years later people are clamoring over the thought of having robots around. That’s why Kym calls up Sphero CEO, Paul Berberian, to find out what we can expect in the future of robotics. They also discuss:

  • How Sphero formed a relationship with Disney to create the BB-8 ball droid in the upcoming Star Wars movie.
  • The instant success of the BB-8 toy and what it can do.
  • How the Sphero droids are being used in schools to help kids learn code.

    •  

    They also talk with callers who are developing their own robots.

    • A robot being used to help with sorting garbage and recyclables.
    • A drone that delivers defibrillation supplies to people having a heart attack before medical help arrives.
    • Artificially intelligent avatars that “learn to become you”.
