Wilson holds a Ph.D. in robotics from Carnegie Mellon University and has worked at Intel Research Seattle, Northrop Grumman, the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), and Microsoft Research. In January 2006 he began as a columnist for Popular Mechanics magazine. An invited speaker at Google's Author Series, Wilson's first book, How to Survive a Robot Uprising, won a Rave Award from Wired magazine. His new book, Where's My Jetpack?, is a funny tribute to the far-fetched ideas that often drive progress.
