******************************** Is There a Robot in Your Future? Helen Greiner Thinks So http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/index.cfm?fa=viewfeature&id=1435 Helen Greiner shares a key trait with many successful business leaders -- a passion for something. In her case, it happens to be robots. That passion led Greiner -- along with Colin Angle and Rodney Brooks -- to found what would become iRobot in 1990. Over the past four years, iRobot has sold more than 1.5 million robots for cleaning floors and has deployed more than 300 tactical military robots in Iraq. Greiner recently gave a presentation at Wharton sponsored by the School's entrepreneurship and technology clubs, after which she talked with Knowledge@Wharton about her company and the impact that robots have, and will have, on our everyday lives.
