tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about Autom, the world's first robot weight loss coach from one of the smartest people we have ever met Autom's creator, Dr Cory Kidd.

Cory
recently completed his Ph.D. in human-robot interaction at the MIT
Media Lab and is known as leading researcher in the field. His
experience in human-robot interaction and developing novel technology
for healthcare applications for the last ten years is a key to
Intuitive Automata’s success.

Prior to his graduate studies at the Media Lab,
Cory was a research scientist as part of the Aware Home project at the
Georgia Institute of Technology.

Autom was designed to help people who are trying to lose weight keep
it off by encouraging them to stick with their diet and exercise
program. Autom verbally asks dieters to input data about what they ate
on a touch screen then she provides encouragement and advice. Autom
will be available for purchase in a year or so, but they will be
needing testers sooner than that so if you are interested please go to
Cory’s website and sign up www.intuitiveautomata and www.myautom.com
