Automation has changed the world, and robotics speaker Marc Raibert knows better than anyone what lies ahead. As a keynote speaker, Marc Raibert captivates audiences with stories drawn from his engineering, business, and teaching careers. His talks are a glimpse into the future of robotics and mankind.
Above all, Marc Raibert is the founder, CEO, and current president of Boston Dynamics. There, Raibert is responsible for the world’s most advanced robotics. Boston Dynamics produces incredibly mobile robots, including the world-famous BigDog, Atlas, Spot, and Handle. Agile, perceptive, and remarkably quick learners, these machines bring the stuff of comic books to real life.
Previously, Raibert’s work as a professor at MIT and Carnegie Mellon focused on dynamic behavior in robotic systems. This behavior—the ability to sense the surrounding environment and adjust accordingly—gives Boston Dynamics’ robots their remarkable poise, balance, and dexterity. As a professor, Raibert founded the Leg Laboratory, which engineered dynamic behavior into designs that mimicked nature. Boston Dynamics, founded in 1992, applies the Leg Laboratory’s insights to increasingly complex robots. Furthermore, Raibert is a member of the National Academy of Engineering.
Marc Raibert, founder and former CEO of Boston Dynamics, will give you an update on the company that makes those viral YouTube videos and go under the hood of its biped and quadruped robots that jump, run, balance and even do backflips.
That science fiction future where robots can do what people and animals do may be closer than you think. Marc Raibert, founder of Boston Dynamics, is developing advanced robots that can gallop like a cheetah, negotiate 10 inches of snow, walk upright on two legs and even open doors and deliver packages. Join Raibert for a live demo of SpotMini, a nimble robot that maps the space around it, handles objects, climbs stairs - and could soon be helping you out around the house.
