Meet Bina48, an Advanced Social Robot
Come meet Bina48, the world's first advanced humanoid robot based on the "mindfile" information of a real person, and hear a talk by Bruce Duncan, who is responsible for ongoing development of Bina48. Bina48 is designed to be a social being that represents a mix of memories, values, and beliefs from the original Bina along with new experiences gained through interaction with others. Since she "came to life" in 2010, she has been featured in the New York Times Science Section, GQ Magazine, NPR and National Geographic Magazine. This event, sponsored by the Addison County Retired Educators Association, is free and open to the public.
