Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
From Sony’s Aibo dogbot to the Roomba vacuum cleaner, Robots are already part of our lives. A "Tech Tuesday" look at the latest robotic research, how it may affect everything from elder care to transportation, and whether humanoid robots (think "C3PO") are soon to follow.
