Businesses should consider the results of a new study that shows workers in countries with greater income inequality are more likely to perceive robots and artificial intelligence as job threats.
IMTS is the only place with industry experts and solutions in once place. You'll find everything you need to stay informed.
IMTS is coming up in Chicago Sep 12-17. Silicon Valley Robotics will be there, along with 424+ robotics exhibitors. I'm moderating a robotics panel and hosting a startup booth with other robotics clusters as the US Alliance of Robotics Clusters.
Three SVR startups will be exhibiting in our Robotics Clusters Pavilion, and we have plans to provide robotics pavilions at more major tradeshows. We'll be doing a research tour of CES and NRF, the National Retail Federation tradeshows next year in January. And in February, we'll be hosting an international (UK/EU) trade mission.
Before then, in October we'll be at RoboBusiness in Santa Clara (where I'm hosting the Pitchfire Startup Competition) and FIRA AgTech USA in Fresno. We'll also be at the ANA Avatar XPRIZE finals in Long Beach California November 4-5. XPrize are offering booth space to selected robotics and telepresence startups or research projects... interested?
The $10M ANA Avatar XPRIZE aims to create an avatar system that can transport human presence to a remote location in real time.
The pioneering event of the global robotics industry, & the one event for the entire robotics ecosystem.
The unique 3-day event for autonomous farming and agricultural robotics solutions,A networking time for farmers, robot manufacturers, industrials and scientists,In-field demos, business time and research projects presentations.
Silicon Valley Robotics' Bots & Beer will be back in person at Toyota Research Institute in September and at Siemens in October with a few more exciting events in the queue, including Women in Robotics Bots & Bubbly, a Construction Robotics Forum, an in person Job Fair, a Robotics Education / Training Forum, and a Policy Round Table.
Plus DIY Robocars will be back at Circuit Launch on Oct 1st, and for the first time ever, the Bionic 1 Mile will be held in San Francisco on Oct 30th. This event has run previously in Boston and brings together amputees, augmentees, all sorts of robots and other people for a fun morning.
In 2017, Will Borden, a runner and below-the-knee amputee, imagined a road race that would welcome athletes of all abilities and celebrate the power of mobility. The dream became reality in 2018 with the first Bionic5K. In Cambridge MA, amputees and blind athletes raced alongside able-bodied runners. What’s more, members of the mobility-focused robotics and bionics labs at Harvard and M.I.T. joined the community.

I have loved science fiction ever since I was a kid and read all my Dad’s ancient issues of Analog Science Fiction and Fact from the 1940s. The first book I can remember reading was The Green Hills of Earth anthology by Robert Heinlein. Fast forward to the 1990s, when, as a new professor of computer science, I began adding sci-fi short stories and movies as extra credit for my AI and robotics courses.
