Wevolver Robots in Depth
Robots in Depth (RID) is an interview series with everyone in robotics, from top entrepreneurs, investors and corporate leaders to researchers, political policy makers and domain experts.
The episodes are 30-60 minutes long, and a new episode is published each week.
The format of RID is that of a talk show with one host and one interviewee, both in the same space. The interviews are relaxed and conversational in style and cover every aspect of robotics.
Per Sjöborg hosts Robots in Depth. He is an experienced interviewer in the field of robotics, interviewing robotics experts regularly since he started his podcast in 2010.
Per is well connected in the robotics community and has attended the industry’s major events since 2008.
