The founder of Slant Robotics, Gabe Bentz, has recently published a book. The Everything Machine talks about what robots can and will do. And here is a hint, the title is a bit of  spoiler.

Universities have been adding to the technology for years. The difference is that none of the school robots have been affordable enough to become a viable product. That's where our Jerry robot is really special.
