ROSCon is upon us!

The ROS Medical Community will be hosting a dedicated in-person 1 hour session on day 0 of ROSCon.

This will be an interactive session, working towards the goals of the community and prioritising our focus for the next year. Expect collaboration with other roboticists, and to leverage that fact that we’re not meeting on Zoom! We’ve chosen a late time slot so you can keep the conversations going over dinner with the people you meet.

Join the slack community for live updates on the day and to coordinate with others under the # roscon channel (note: that link is only valid until ROSCon ends).

If you can’t make it to ROSCon in-person, jump on the livestream for these talks by community leaders:

  • Saving lives sooner: leveraging ROS 2 for end-stage kidney disease by Deanna Hood (Vexev)
  • Enabling ROS 2 Benchmarks: A Medical Robotics Perspective by Marco Pedretti and Shashank Sharma (Karl Storz VentureOne)

Livestream is free and viewers usually get the chance to ask questions to speakers. (See the intro thread linked above for intros from them :wink: )

Calendar events have been sent to those already on the mailing list.

See you soon!
