Analysis into humanoid robots is a quickly advancing area, with corporations all over the world striving to provide robots that look and act extra like us. However what’s it about recreating ourselves in robotic kind that we discover so fascinating? Why do humanoid robots each enthral and terrify us? And is our obsession with robotic people simply vainness, or may they play useful roles in our future society?
On this particular reside recording at Imperial School London as a part of the Nice Exhibition Street Pageant, Claire chatted to Ben Russell (Science Museum), Maryam Banitalebi Dehkordi (College of Hertfordshire) and Petar Kormushev (Imperial School London) about humanoid robotics.
Ben Russell has been the Science Museum’s Curator of Mechanical Engineering since 2004. He has curated six everlasting galleries and non permanent exhibitions on the museum, together with Engineers (2023), Robots (2017), Cosmonauts (2015) and James Watt’s Workshop (2011). He’s the creator of James Watt: Making the World Anew, (Reaktion Books, 2014), and editor of Robots (Scala, 2017), in addition to quite a few revealed and convention papers.
Maryam BanitalElebi dehkordi is a Senior Lecturer in Robotics and AI on the College of Hertfordshire. She has a grasp’s diploma in Mechatronics and Automated Management Engineering from the College Expertise Malaysia and a Ph.D. in Perceptual Robotics from Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna in Italy. Her experience spans assistive robots, cell robots, agricultural robots, industrial robots, humanoid robots, parallel manipulators, navigation, and out of doors autonomous autos.
Petar Kormushev is Director of the Robotic Intelligence Lab at Imperial School London and an Affiliate Professor in Robotics on the Dyson College of Design Engineering. His analysis focus is on reinforcement studying algorithms and their utility to autonomous robots. Petar’s long-term aim is to create robots that may be taught by themselves and adapt to dynamic environments. His machine studying algorithms have been utilized to a wide range of humanoid robots, together with COMAN and iCub.
