A Day in the Life of a Roboticist: Charlie Kemp

IEEE SpectrumSeptember 28, 20266 min read

Building useful robots starts with understanding the people who use them. For Charlie Kemp, cofounder and chief technology officer of Hello Robot, that means developing assistive robots that can help people with everyday tasks and support greater independence. In this Robots Guide profile, Kemp shares his path from studying artificial intelligence at MIT to building Stretch, explains how working with people with disabilities has shaped his approach, and offers advice for aspiring roboticists. Read the full profile on IEEE’s Robots Guide.

In this edition of our A Day in the Life of a Roboticist series, we meet Charlie Kemp, cofounder and chief technology officer of Hello Robot, who develops mobile manipulators to help people in their homes and workplaces. His interest in robotics began with the grand challenges of artificial intelligence, and his work has taken him from humanoid robots at MIT to assistive robots for older adults and people with disabilities. "Working at Hello Robot is a rewarding experience," he says. "I love the community using Stretch robots as research and development platforms. They’re discovering new ways that human-friendly robots can benefit society." Charlie Kemp, cofounder and CTO of Hello Robot, develops assistive robots…
