Robotics Interview--please help!

[mmro2014]

I'm a journalism student writing an article about how to build robots and I'd like to get a little feedback. I'm hoping to include opinions about the significance of robot building--why it matters and what the future of robotics looks like. If you could help me out, please leave a comment addressing what your experience with robots has meant to you, or why you think robotics is an important study. Please also leave your full name and title. Thanks so much!
