“If you’re going to solve a hard problem and make something meaningful, you have to be relentlessly resourceful.” I spoke with Mehul from Matic Robots on how AI is unlocking Robotics 2.0 and why the timing couldn’t be better. “We are reimagining robots from scratch… and something that we’ve all dreamed about which is the Wall Es and the R2 D2s.” “We thought it was time for robotics 2.0. That is what Matic is bringing.”

Sunday Robotics raised $165M to deploy their home robot Memo, but the more interesting story is how they got here. Instead of starting with a robot, they started by putting sensor-equipped gloves into real homes to capture how people actually do chores like dishes, laundry, and cleaning.
