MAKE IT IN LA Rodney Brooks: Rethink Robotics

If you own a Roomba, you can thank Rodney Brooks, because he's the co-founder of iRobot. He launched the company almost three decades ago when he was a professor at MIT. He's trying to disrupt the world of industrial robotics with his new startup, Rethink Robotics. While I was in Boston a few weeks ago, I visited Rod at his home in Cambridge and captured some great stories. His extensive experiences over his career inspired the new company.
