ROS News for the Week of August 22nd, 2022
Our Sense, Think, Act, Podcast just completed its first year.. Find out about 8 robotics podcasts you don’t want to miss.
Our friends at the OpenCV just kicked off their 2022 AI Competition
Open-RMF had quite the week. We learned about this Open-RMF Study at European Hospital, and @TheConstruct just wrapped up a big training event.. I talked to multiple companies this week that are starting to look into adding Open-RMF to their tech stack.
I had a lot of terrific ROS related food this week. I found these lovely sweet breads at my local panaderia, and had a ROS 2 robot serve me dinner.
