Google has many robot companies under it. And what google is doing with all of them. which include, Redwood RoboticsHolomniBot & DollyBoston Dynamics  and many more. It might be a Wow factor, but we don't know, no no i mean u didn't knew that before. But i have brought you some details about it. Have a look Below.


What Google Is Really Doing With All Those Robot Companies

Since December of last year, Google has purchased at least six companies either buildings robots or creating technologies used in the development of robotics.
Former Google Android lead and current Google Robot Guru Andy Rubin's list of acquired companies reads a bit like a baseline robot kit:
  • Redwood Robotics for robot arms
  • Holomni for robot wheels
  • Bot & Dolly for robotics cameras
  • Boston Dynamics for creepy and cool mobile robots
  • DeepMind Technologies for artificial intelligence
  • Meka Robotics for humanoid robots
  • Industrial Perception for computer vision (which may or may not be for robotics)
    While we know Google has interest in self-driving cars, the robot end-game is unclear. Sure, you can build an army of C-3POs, but for what?
    Well, robots are excellent at repetitive tasks, like changing the settings on millions of computers so that they have Google.com as their home page and Google as their default search engine. Would these Google Robots invade homes to make the change or would Google offer it as a service? Send us your computer and our robots will "fix" them.
