Robotics in Greater Seattle
Robots that prevent power outages. Robots
that you command to move merely by thinking. A
robot in every home. All of these things are on
the cusp of happening and, as one would guess
when talking about a new technology, the Greater
Seattle region is playing a big part in it.
The Greater Seattle region is a center for the
new robotics industry that is just now starting to
take off like the
Boeing 787. In fact,

famously mandated
"a computer on
every desktop," is
now predicting there
will soon be a robot
