Meet the headliners
Roboticist Vijay Kumar is known for ‘robots that can fly’ and had presented a TED talk in 2012. Speaking of his work on drones at the General Robotics, Automation, Sensing and Perception (GRASP) Lab, at the University of Pennsylvania, Kumar shares, “We create autonomous ground and aerial robots. The autonomous flying robots are able to navigate in complex, three-dimensional environments with or without GPS with applications to search and rescue.” Wanting to popularise drones or unmanned aerial vehicles as they are called, Kumar expresses that he wants to create the desktop technology that would be able to print programmable, printable robots.
