Event Details

Have you ever seen a blind, juggling robot? After the evening’s discussion between scientists, artists, and a science fiction specialist, you’ll be able to answer yes.

Born in the imagination of science fiction novelists, robots are now also the focus of scientists and artists alike. swissnex San Francisco brings together all three of these seemingly disparate disciplines to examine robotics from each perspective—and to admire the sweet spot where robotics research and robotic art coincide.

6:30 pm: doors open
7:00 pm: presentations by Marc Atallah, Ken Goldberg, Raffaello d’Andrea, and Alan Rath
8:00 pm: panel discussion moderated by Ken Goldberg and audience Q-n-A
8.45 pm: reception, networking, and demos
10:00 pm: doors close
