ROS News for the Week of July 18th, 2022
The Hello Robot was used for some really interesting work presented at RSS 2022, interesting enough to warrant an article in TechCrunch, “Teaching Home Robots to Learn By Watching People” – Paper available here – Full Video
Another small step for SpaceROS, NASA’s OGMA now supports ROS
ROSCon 2022 sponsors, registration, & hotels are now on the website.
I plan to post the full schedule on Monday.
