Claim your profileI write (a lot) about robotics, science, and technology for IEEE Spectrum, and a few other publications from time to time."Evan Ackerman has been writing about science, robots, and emerging technology for over 15 years. After co-founding his own robotics blog in 2007, he began contributing to IEEE Spectrum in 2011. In addition to Spectrum, Evan’s work has appeared in a variety of other websites and magazines, and you may have heard him talking about robots on NPR’s Science Friday or the BBC World Service if you were listening at just the right time. Tracking down interesting robots has taken Evan to conferences and events on almost every continent, and he's actively trying to work out the best way of getting himself to Antarctica. Evan currently lives in Oklahoma City, along with his partner and a steadily growing collection of robot vacuums. In his spare time, he enjoys scuba diving, rehabilitating injured raptors, and playing bagpipes excellently."
