ROS News for the Week of March 11th, 2024
The ROSCon 2024 call for talks and workshops is now open! We want your amazing talks! Also, the ROSCon Diversity Scholarship deadline is coming up!
ROS By-The-Bay is next week.. Open Robotic’s CEO @Vanessa_Yamzon_Orsi is dropping by to take your questions about the future of Open Robotics, and I recommend you swing by if you can. Just a heads up, we have to move to a different room on the other side of the complex; details are on Meetup.com.
We’re planning a ROS Meetup in San Antonio on March 26th in conjunction with the ROS Industrial Consortium meeting. If you are in the area, or have colleagues in the region, please help us spread the word.
We’ve line up a phenomenal guest for our next Gazebo Community Meeting; Ji Zhang from Carnegie Mellon will be speaking about his work on his work integrating ROS, Gazebo, and a variety of LIDAR-based SLAM techniques.
