Thanks for the update, @tfoote, fullly understand this hard decision given the COVID-19 pandemic.
Look forward to ROSCon 2021.
@smac - you had me at battle-bots! Sign me up!
Would love to see a virtual event. Seems fitting considering how much online streaming and participation has been a part of ROSCon.
Bonus points for exploiting corner cases in the physics simulation to make the Kraken eat the opponentās robot!
Iād like to attend a virtual event given the current circumstances and logistical constraints.
My robotās all in favor of and willing to help with an online ROS Foxy CTF!
Thank you for the update! Since I have been participating steadily since ROSCon2014, I was very excited and expected about this ROSCon2020. Although the ROSCon2020 was postponed to next year, I think this is a very brave decision. I deeply sympathized with the decision of the ROSCon executive committee, and I hope that next yearās ROSCon will be mere fun, bigger, and more people will be together!
This sounds fun. Maybe a plugin to create damage by removing pieces of you robot as you play and get hit?
This gif is getting stolen. Also +1 for CTF!
