Video: The future of robotics, as seen by roboticists

At Automatica 2014 in Munich this year, the ECHORD++ project asked roboticists like Vijay Kumar, Uwe Haass, Pere Homs, and Christian Schlegel one simple question: “What do you think is the future of robotics?” Find out just how bright they think the future of robotics will be in this video.
