Robotic Arms


Who do you call if you need a little help with some of life's more complicated tasks...like building a car, performing surgery or even diffusing a bomb? The people at Barrett Technologies in Cambridge, Mass., are always glad to lend a hand, or an arm or both--as long as it's robotic. Barrett Technologies is on the cutting edge of developing and implementing rbotic technology. Science Nation heads to Cambridge to rub elbows with some of the company's creations, and see how support from NSF is stimulating job growth in U.S. - based research, technology and manufacturing.
