Census, the mainframe computer, legitimizing the person computer, and developing the software that beat the best in the world at chess and then Jeopardy. Joining me to talk about it—and IBM's other pivots, past and future—is a person uniquely qualified to do so. Steven Cherry Jim, IBM wasn't the first to personal computers.

A search of the MIT Museum’s database came up empty (no known example of the hearing glove exists), but I did find the entry on the Boston Arm.

Piloting the bullet-shaped Bell X-1 rocket plane in 1947, Chuck Yeager became the first person to exceed the speed of sound while in horizontal flight. A new generation of aeronautical engineers and entrepreneurs are, however, keen to once again take on the technical, environmental, and economic challenges. Everett Collection/Alamy.

But these engineers and programmers largely shared the same point of view. The type of computing they envisioned was thoroughly interactive and personal, comprehensively networked, and completely graphical—with high-resolution screens and high-quality print output. This vision wasn’t entirely new or limited to Xerox PARC.

Foundation for Skydio’s drones can be traced back to Adam’s work on autonomous agile drones at MIT , and after spending a few years at Google working on Project Wing’s delivery drones , Adam cofounded Skydio in 2014. But there is a good news, because you also asked me another question about cost of this camera. It’s around €3,000.

Engineers at Georgia Tech are the first to study the mechanics of springtails, which leap in the water to avoid predators. As part of the challenge, teams of engineers have developed vehicles capable of prospecting for resources in a test-bed simulating the Moon's shaded polar regions. How do you program a personality?

Values normalized to standard naturally-aspirated gasoline engine vehicle. However, the flexibility and lower costs of PHEVs appear to trump this simplicity, certainly in the nearer term. Overall, we have substantial opportunities for reducing environmental and climate impacts from light-duty road vehicles.
