Episode notes
Early Robot Test In A Spiral Staircase
- Oana Jinga first extended a 15-meter robot inside a spiral staircase in central London because there was nowhere else to test it.
- The company later moved to proper production facilities with tall warehouses so ceiling height was no longer a constraint.
Warehouses Are Black Boxes
- Warehouses function as black boxes because goods lose digital traceability once inside.
- Dexery aims to make warehouses observant by replacing manual checks with continuous automated scanning.
From Home Security To Bots And Us
- Oana and friends started with a camera-on-wheels for home security that evolved into taller robots with screens for interaction.
- The project became a company called Bots and Us focused on human-robot interaction.
