DRIVEN: A SYMPOSIUM ABOUT MOTIVATED SMART OBJECTS
3 p.m., IDEAS

Objects are becoming both more mobile and more intelligent regarding their position, configuration, movement and interaction with people. Rather than beginning from a technological presupposition this panel begins from an assumption of ergonomics, culture, use and in general, the interaction of control technologies and people. Whether on the job, at leisure or in motion through the city examples of people and “robotics” will be presented and discussed between panelists. Rather than being driven by robots, this event focuses on the way we are driving together with technology towards new paradigms of collaboration with robotics, from earth movers to furniture and in between
