Robots are the future. Whether we like it or not, we live in an era where more and more things in the world are becoming mechanised. However, the technologies that go into the different machines has to come from somewhere, and this is where today´s guest Pablo comes in. Pablo is working as a Robotics vision scientist at an advanced technology company called iRobot. Pablo and his team are working with computer vision and on developing and improving technologies used in robots. What Pablo is doing, is helping robots “see” and understand the real physical world through a camera or mapping, so that the robots can interact and function without the need of a human manually guiding it. The technologies Pablo is working with is really amazing, and has so many potential uses. For example, imagine a world where blind people are given the ability to navigate easier thanks to sensors attached to a pair of wearable glasses, or sitting in a driverless car which takes your from point A to point B while perfectly manoeuvring all obstacles along the way. The possibilities are endless.
