SUMMARY:Mill Talk: The unlikely story of Roomba—birthing the world’s favorite robot
DESCRIPTION:Every product has a story\, but one of the most improbable is the tale of Roomba. For 40+ years major corporations and basement tinkerers alike struggled to solve the seemingly simple problem of building a robotic floor cleaner. Nothing worked. Finally\, in 2002 a quirky team from an unknown company cracked the riddle and delivered Roomba. A million memes followed. \nThe talk recounts Roomba’s decade-long journey from a 1989 maker event at MIT to living rooms around the world. Presented by Joe Jones\, inventor of the Roomba. \nFree to the public but registration required. \n
