What comes to mind when you think of a safety and security robot?

Terminator? RoboCop?

In reality, we should be thinking more along the lines of WALL-E.

That’s what co-founder and CEO of Cobalt Robotics, Travis Deyle, encourages. In this episode of WTF, Travis shares how he’s working to bridge the educational gap between fiction and physical security bots.

He also discusses:

• The market’s current view of robots in the workforce
• The hurdles society faces with robot adoption
• Practical solutions robots can provide for humans
• Whether or not robots are taking human jobs
