Robot Futures: LIREC Debate 2011

What is a robot? Is it a piece of hardware? Is it software? Is it both? Is it supposed to look like us? Are spambots robots? LIREC, an EU-funded project exploring how we might live with robot companions, held a discussion at the Royal Geographical Society on 1 December 2011. Moderated by Olivia Solon (Wired UK), speakers explored the definition of robots in the world of industry and research.
