50 women in robotics you need to know about 2021

It's Ada Lovelace Day and once again we're delighted to introduce you to "50 women in robotics you need to know about"! From the Afghanistan Girls Robotics Team to K.G.Engelhardt who in 1989 founded, and was the first Director of, the Center for Human Service Robotics at Carnegie Mellon, these women showcase a wide range of roles in robotics. We hope these short bios will provide a world of inspiration, in our ninth Women in Robotics list! They are researchers, industry leaders, and artists. Some women are at the start of their careers, while others have literally written the book, the program or the standards.
