Industrial robotics: 7 reasons why young engineers should get into it

In this article, I present 7 reasons why industrial robotics is a great industry to work in as a young engineer. In fact, I present 7 reasons why I personnaly really enjoy it. I am 34 years old. I hold a Ph.D. in robotics during which I worked on robotic cranes (such as the SkyCam). I was stock-holder and director of product and technology in a high-growth web-based business for 7 years. I live in a place where industries such as video games, telecom and aerospace hire most of the technical skilled labour. We have in Quebec city unbeatable quality of life to raise my young family of 4. So why the hell did I start a company in industrial robotics and travel from plant to plant in North America to sell robot hands?
