ROS News for the Week of April 29th, 2024
We kicked off the Jazzy Tutorial Party this week. Please grab a ticket and take Jazzy for a spin. We’ll get the logo out just as soon as we can.
I am planning to be in Chicago next week for Automate. I’ve put together a ROS Meetup in Chicago for next Wednesday. We would love to see you there.
BONUS MEETUP! After Automate I am heading to Pittsburgh for PyCon. I’ve put together a ROS Meetup in Pittsburgh at Gecko Robotics on May 16th.
I have been in Montreal all week for a ROS Meetup and Open Hardware Summit. Here are few snap shots from the trip. We’ve had a bunch of great robotics talks at Open Hardware Summit including one on robotics education for native communities (including robots endangered language education) and another on designing wearable robotics with Jorvon Moss. They should be on the livestream if you are interested in watching.
