This weeks episode is about the Future of Robots🤖

Jack interviews Dr Patrick Holthaus who is the manager of The Robot House, a research house from The University of Hertfordshire, UK. They talk about what the Robot House is and why it’s there; how people find it interacting with robots; how they’re programmed and the jobs and activities  that they can do as well of course what the future of robots may look like and how they may fit into our daily lives in the next 30 years or so.

Jack asks about The University of Hertfordshire’s successful robotic football team, called the BoldHearts and discovers just how difficult it is to programme a robot to kick a ball! ⚽️
