About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're thrilled to have Dr. Jane Smith, an expert in robotics and the lead instructor for the Global Certificate Course in Social Robotics for Sanitation. Dr. Smith, can you tell us a bit about your experience with social robotics? GUEST: Absolutely, I've been working in this field for over a decade now. My focus has been on integrating robotics into various sectors, including sanitation, to improve efficiency and effectiveness. HOST: That's fascinating. How do you see social robotics impacting the sanitation industry specifically? GUEST: Social robotics can play a significant role in sanitation. It can help automate repetitive tasks, reduce human error, and even operate in hazardous environments. This leads to improved sanitation services and better health outcomes. HOST: And what are some of the current trends in this area? GUEST: There's a growing interest in using robotics for public health and safety. Also, there's a shift towards more affordable and accessible technologies, making it possible for low-resource settings to benefit from these advancements. HOST: That's great to hear. But there must be challenges too. Can you share some of them? GUEST: Yes, one major challenge is the lack of awareness and understanding of how social robotics can be applied in sanitation. Another is the need for robust infrastructure to support these technologies. HOST: Looking forward, where do you see the future of social robotics in sanitation? GUEST: I believe we'll see more widespread adoption of these technologies, especially in developing countries. It's an exciting time, as we're just starting to scratch the surface of what's possible. HOST: Thank you, Dr. Smith, for sharing your insights with us today.
