Transformers, Chappie, Real Steel, RoboCop - countless of films have been produced that spark fascination for robots and brings us to ask, can I build my own robot? The barrier that many aspiring robot creators face when wanting to build their own robot is the lack of knowledge in science and technology. We tend to think that to be successful in the field of robotics require a minimum degree in mechatronics. Our guest for this week, Lim Nam Aik takes pride in contradicting the popular belief and in offering a different pathway towards robotics - building eco-robots from recyclable materials, and focusing on its form and development, before proceeding to collaborate with the technicians and engineers for functionality.
Thought-provoking discussions on ideas, people and events shaping our lives.
