The future of robotics to be revealed in free public talk
A free public talk in Oxford next month will paint a picture of what the future of robotics could hold.
Robotics expert Professor Rob Buckingham OBE, who leads a team of 300 roboticists at Culham Science Centre’s fusion robotics centre, RACE (Remote Applications in Challenging Environments), will present a talk: “Essential robotics: a guide to our shared future’.
The talk will describe a future in which intuitive machines are deployed to go where humans are unable to.
The event, which will be held at the Examinations School in Oxford on 7 September between 18:00-19:30, is part of the UK Atomic Energy Authority’s (UKAEA) outreach programme.

Rob Buckingham, Director, UKAEA’s RACE, said: “I’m looking forward to sharing our exciting vision of how the world will be supported by robots. They will help make fusion energy – based on the same processes that power the sun and stars – economically viable.”
Beginning with a focus on case studies from fusion energy machine JET (Joint European Torus), the talk will move on to a look at a future in which autonomous machines change lives, both in work and play.
