Science fiction has long been one of the things that inspires technology, but with the latest arriving in homes, everything can feel more sci-fi than normal: robots are here, and they are taking your chores. And what fitting timing too, what with Star Trek‘s 60th anniversary.
This week on ABC Melbourne Drive, we’ll talk tech and Trek, covering all manner of robotic developments making their way into your home, answering some questions, and even talking in Klingon at one point, too.
With robotic mowers, robotic vacuums, robotic mops, and robotic pool cleaners, not to mention a toothbrush that includes a camera inside, it may well be the most futuristic show yet.
Catch Melbourne Drive for September 8 with Charlie Pickering on ABC Melbourne to hear all about it, kicking in from around the 1 hour 35 minute mark.
