Check out the Robots Podcast

For those of you that just can’t get enough robot news, you should definitely check out the Robots Podcast. The show is now produced in part by Markus Waible, of Talking Robots fame, who kindly sent us a note letting us know about the show. Markus also writes for the IEEE Automaton blog, which is on our feedlist, and another great news resource.

The most recent episode of the Robots Podcast features Steven Rainwater from robots.net and Mikell Taylor with the Automaton blog and Bluefin Robotics, a maker of AUVs and a competitor to iRobot. They discuss the online robotics community, blogging about robots, and life at Bluefin. Steven, if you’re reading this, I do have one nit to pick - GoRobotics.net actually started before robots.net, but we’ll overlook the slip.

A new Robots Podcast is released every two weeks, with the next episode slated to appear on August 15th. In the meantime, you can go and check out the four previous episodes. The site also has a growing robotics forum you can check out.

    Sorry about that! I didn’t realize GoRobotics had been around so long. Looks like you posted your first article in 1999, almost two years before we went online with robots.net. Keep up the good work! I see the makings of a new story here - “Top Ten Oldest robot news sites” :)

    Steve,
    It’s hard for me to believe too! Robots.net certainly has been much more faithful at posting than I have, so I’ll give you that. A list of the top 10 oldest robotics news sites would be interesting, but most of the other older ones have folded. Kids these days … don’t know how good they have it ;)

  3. Markus Waibel Says:

    William, thanks for the post. And I agree: us kids are indeed lucky to have some great and lasting sites out there to show that it can be done. Lots to learn … looking forward to that list! :)
