Publishers Summary

Helene Greiner, 31, was inspired by R2D2 from Star Wars. Now, she is a leader in the world of robotics and her company, IS Robotics, works with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Office of Naval Research to build robots that can detect land mines, locate unexploded bombs, and even swim like fish. And that's just the beginning. According to one colleague, Greiner and company may soon create "the eyes, ears, and arms of the Internet." Greiner was selected to Technology Review's list of 100 Top Young Innovators. At the daylong conference announcing those chosen, Audible's John Barth sat down with this under 35, cutting-edge thinker to discuss her work. Technology Review is MIT's magazine of innovation.
