About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today I'm thrilled to be joined by Dr. Jane Robinson, an expert in robotics technology and the lead instructor for the Global Certificate Course in Advanced Space Robotics Technology. Dr. Robinson, it's great to have you here! GUEST: Thank you for having me, I'm excited to discuss this fascinating topic! HOST: Let's dive right in. Can you tell us about your personal experiences and insights related to this course topic? What drew you to space robotics? GUEST: Of course. I've always been fascinated by space exploration and the potential of robotics. During my career, I've had the opportunity to work on several space robotics projects, and I'm passionate about sharing this knowledge with others. HOST: That's inspiring. Now, in terms of current industry trends, what are some of the most exciting developments in advanced space robotics? GUEST: There are so many interesting trends, but I'm particularly excited about the advancements in autonomous navigation and manipulation. These technologies are enabling more sophisticated space missions and pushing the boundaries of what's possible. HOST: Autonomous navigation and manipulation sound like challenging subjects for students to learn. What are some of the common challenges they face while mastering these concepts? GUEST: Students often struggle with the mathematical foundations and the practical applications of these concepts. However, we've designed the course to gradually build their understanding and confidence through hands-on simulations and real-world case studies. HOST: That's a great approach. Now, looking to the future, where do you see the field of space robotics heading in the next 5 to 10 years? GUEST: I believe we'll see even more advanced AI and machine learning techniques being applied to space robotics, enabling new capabilities and missions. The potential for satellite servicing and planetary exploration is immense! HOST: Dr. Robinson, thank you so much for sharing your insights and experiences with us today.
