Jump the Curve with a Violin-Playing Robot
I am just about to jump on a plane for Tokyo, but I wanted to share this interesting article about a violin-playing robot that Toyota has manufactured. Now, a musical-playing robot isn’t particularly interesting, but remember that robots are getting exponentially better as a result of advances in material sciences, computer processing power, algorithms, object identification and voice-recognition technology. I’d encourage you to “jump the curve” and just imagine what other tasks robots will be capable of performing in the very near future.
P.S. I’ll be traveling until Monday, December 10 ... look for Jump the Curve to return at that time.
