1:30 Lunchtime Programming:Robots Among Us.

Discover how the country more famous for the “Three Fs”—food, fashion, and fast cars—is among the heaviest and earliest adopters of robotics and automation in its advanced-manufacturing-driven economy.

Arturo Baroncelli
Business Development Manager, Comau Robotics, Engelberger Prize 2005
Presented by the Italian Trade Agency

Manufacture of robots from 3kg & 0.6 Meters to 800 kg: COMAU – World largest system integrator, manufacturer

  • investing in parallel is reasonable
  • Clinical Trials in 2017
  •  Team and Capital — IP Contraversy: intensity,
  • Cas9 – Other Enzymes?? Other enzymes — features are different in 5 years we will know more
  • Specificity, cut and repair is getting to Medicine
  • Alternative methods will be better to be used with other methods
  • Diseases to target Vision, Liver,
  • Sickle Cells: Stem cells to be use in Gene Therapy vs Gene Editing – correct gene in place vs systemic

Complement your views with her Perspective by reading

9:15 Robots Among Us

Examining the impact as advances in AI, robotics, and automation lead to more natural interactions between humans and machines, as we prepare for an era of reliable robots assisting workers across countless global industries.

Robert Wood
Professor of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University, Founding Core Faculty Member, Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering
Robots Among Us

100 YEARS AGO ROBOT WAS INTRODUCED, fictions: NASA 1990, Robot Selfie taken in Space. Where are the robots?

Lack of people in pictures with Robots, Opportunities:

  • Bioinspired robotics
  • creation a robotics wiht the behaviour of a bee.
  • Manufacturing Options: MEMS
  • 3D topologies
  • rapid prototyping

the old way – mechanical fine mechanics

Richard Feynman in the 50s – materials @ Harvard Microrobotics Lab:

  • Device Operations: Flying microrobots
  • RoboBee Flight control
  • control of the system is the hard: Modulating Power and Remote Control
  • “HAMR” Real Tiem advanced manufacturing techniques of a running robot
  • Number of joints and degrees of freedom, 20 legs, High dynamic locomotion (“PronK” at 20Hz)
  • Biological control: Jumping Robots
  • Jumping of surface of water –
  • Origami
  • : Folding programmable matter, smart sheets, Self-folding robotic Oragami: FUnctional Devices, folding, laser cut folding pattern
  • printed robot: How to fold?
  • Manufacturing: complexity: SELF-FOLDING STRUCTURE & FUNCTION – Self-folding machines
  • Soft walking robots: Not rigid, continuously folding and swarming, more like human
  • Soft jumping robots — slow, more energetics: Explosive Actuators
  • 3D Printing Jumping robot: Rigid vs Soft

Jason: Impact in Manufacturing

Robert Wood: Surgical Devices – endoscopes for microsurgery

  • Wyss Institute of Biologically Inspired Engineering has a Road Show for STEM Education in School
  • Built a robort when he was 5

Questions from the Audience:

  • Applications in HealthCare

Robert: small scale Surgical procedures, customizable assist devices, soft robotics, weaving soft robots into fabrics for wearable

Norton Grumman: Computer interface with biological:

Robert: Control insects, muscle cells using manufacturing for Tissues and nano manufacturing

Hod Lipson
Professor of Engineering, Columbia University
Seeking Creative Machines

Machine Creativity: AI can analyzed by using data for decisions, Weather prediction, AI loooks on data that converge

Data analytics: Predict behavior and buy behavior

Cars and Sensors in realtime – To turn or not

INTELLIGENCE as Divergent Thinking: Innovation and creativity

How to foster creativity – thinking out of the box, curiosity

AI : focus on Analysis NOT on Synthesis = Creation of new Staff

Formal process of design is difficult

Inspiration: Human create ideas – hard to understand HOW to innovate

Mother of Creators: EVOLUTION in Nature: divergent, selection, differentiation,

ROBOTICS of TODAY:

  • designed by people
  • mimic the breeding method Physics Simulator: Create cross creedings and selection of the best performing robots
  • Google: Soft robot evolution
  • Breed SW – 2D manufacturing
  • Random shapes; 3 MILLION OF FORMS created by computer SW from interactions wiht Human, people eliminated paterns and computer learned from these selections
  • Creativity in the Arts: Can a Robot paint???  Robort paint 90% better than most human, impressionist comes out the best. Oil on Canvas
  • Robot takes away Manual Labor of Human
  • Lawyer, MDs – a need to combine the robot and the humans

Interview: by David Rotman @MIT Tech Review

  • Impact of Robotics impact on Job distruction
  • Develop technologies to improve life yet create more jobs
  • what advances in Creative Machines is to be worry about?

Hod Lipson

  • within 100 years people will live in an age when Computer will become creative and productive — WHAT will people do if Machines are doing better than Humans?
  • AI to make machines more creative: Scale capability od Humans
  • focus of AUGMENTATION not REPLACEMENT
  • How do we restructure the economy: Wealth, meaning and accomplishment in other spheres than JOBS

From the Audience: Economic Policy to Trickle UP economy

Lipson: Human competition on creativity vs part take in the economy’s opportunities

  • solutions needed by Economic Policies
  • Self replication occurred if no purpose was given to Robots

10:10 Privacy & Security in the Digital Age

Data is being generated, stored, and utilized in new ways. How should individuals and organizations alike manage the implications of near total transparency?

Christopher Soghoian
Principal Technologist, ACLU
Privacy and Security in the Digital Age

For more than 100 years Telecom allowed Gov’t to spy on Citizens

  • Telecom wired networks to ensure Intelligence community with survellience and
  • FBI, NSA, Foreign Gov’t, Police

Text message go through Apple, Cook President of Apple: Announced Form of encreption that Apple will not UNLOCK anymore iPhones, NOW end to end encreaption.

  • Apple Customers NOW had security for FREE, phone calls, FaceTime, text messaging
  • ANDROID: Google can’t HANG OUT is not encreapted — THE POOR is using it it is $100 vs APPLE $800
  • WatsUp by Facebook: is encreepted
  • Signal for android; is encreapted

JASON: CIVIL RIGHT MATTER

CHRIS SOGHOIAN: FBI tapped Martin Luther KING

  • Survellience is too high
  • Communication must be secured for Citizenship in Democracies
  • Engineering needs to be responsible for Privacy

WHY APPLE A DN GOOGLE ARE SO DIFFERENT

Chris: Google secured the connection

Business model is different:

Google: OPEN and Advertising Charge for data

Apple: Secrecy by Steve Jobs, NOW UNLOCK

12:15 Driving the Future of Mobility

Several megatrends, such as population growth, the expanding middle class, environmental concerns and gridlock in cities are threatening personal mobility, especially in urban areas. Companies are looking at new solutions and services such as car sharing models, parking solutions, on-demand transportation and electric bicycles to help change how the world moves.

Erica Klampfl
Global Mobility Solutions Manager, Ford Motor Company
Presented by Ford

FORD Company – SMART MOBILITY Company – New Strategy

  • Urbanization – Mega Cities Projection, solution is not more cars, in Urban areas
  • Global Middle class growth – Car ownership 2Billion growing to 4Billon
  • Air quality – emission, Mellinials – Journey in life is different
  • Enablers: Big Data, cell phones, cars are connected with IOT,
  • Value provided to Consumers from Big Data
  • Flexible use of Ownership of Cars in cities – Car Sharing – bridge of affordability via fraction ownership, pay for mile of driving

London: A to B: Car Sharing guaranteed Parking, pay by the minute, all electrical vehicle FORD try to understand the pay point in London, promote car sharing of electric vehicles are tested

  • mutli-modal Urban mobility solutions: Car is one load
  • FORD is looking at the bicycle – a Bluetooth sensor on the Bike – data collected, lighting the area where bikes are in use, pot holes on the road – Mixed use of Cars and Bicycles

25 Experiments @FORD  for different mode of Transportation, Around Mobility FORD & MIT

Fractional Ownership of Car: Sharing with people that need the car on weekend by those who need it for the weekdays.
