Obama is the Friend of Robots, Announces Robotic Revolution

United States president Barak Obama announced a major manufacturing initiative from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. The idea is to create an  "Advanced Manufacturing Partnership" (AMP) that brings together major U.S. manufacturers and top U.S. universities in order to invigorate the local manufacturing activities. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfTY38Xg9bg

The video above features the full Obama speech at CMU. The video is 22 minutes long,  but is filled with interesting information about the current robotic market and nice bits of humor.
