Title: Google will make a robot for every home


1
Google will make a robot for every home
  • Today, many technologies that once seemed to be
    the subject of sci-fi are already being tested
    for daily use, and a few of these paradigm
    shifting technology applications have come from
    Google labs. Picture-based search, self-driving
    cars, Google Glass and soon there might be Google
    robots. It appears that with the robotics
    venture, Google is positioning itself to make
    smarter robots more common.

Advanced robots
  • Boston Dynamics, a spinoff from Massachusetts
    Institute of Technology in 1992, has been closely
    working for the U.S. military with funding from
    Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
    (DARPA). The firm claims they make the most
    advanced robots on earth, and a glance through
    their online portfolio reveals that this isnt
    far from the truth.

Boston Dynamics effect
  • The first seven acquisitions by Google, including
    that of the Schaft, winner of the 2013 DARPA
    Robotics Challenge Trials for humanoids, did not
    trigger much popular interest when compared to
    the news of Boston Dynamics acquisition. This
    could be because of the perfection Boston
    Dynamics has already attained with its robot
    avatars
