Ever wondered about the brains of a robot or the robot operating systems (ROS)? Is there a standardized ROS for robots? How do robots learn? How do you teach a robot? And then there other questions about Artificial Intelligence (AI), ethics and the future of robots in our society.

We spoke with Dr. Todd Hylton, Senior Vice President of Brain Corporation to find out more about the world of robots. We also wanted to find out how he developed an interest in science. Was there a teacher that inspired his love for science? Brain Corp develops software technologies for robots.

LISTEN TO DR. TODD HYLTON OF BRAIN CORP

Dr. Hylton worked at DARPA and Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) before joining San Diego-based Brain Corp. He got his undergraduate degree at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and his PhD from Stanford University.
