We’re excited to announce that this year’s World MoveIt! Day will be Wednesday October 18th! The event is a day long international hackathon to improve the MoveIt! code base, documentation, and community. We hope to close as many pull requests and issues as possible and explore new areas of features and improvements for the now five year old framework.

We will be having many event locations including:

  • Verb Surgical, San Francisco Bay Area
  • Magazino, Munich, Germany
  • Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, USA
  • Xamla Robotics (PROVISIO GmbH), Münster, Germany
  • ROS-Industrial Asian Pacific Consortium, Singapore (THURSDAY OCTOBER 19th)
  • PickNik Robotics (Univ. Colorado), Boulder, USA
  • Shadow Robot Company, London, UK

You are encouraged to have your own event in your lab/organization/company and video conference in to all the other events.

Hi Dave,
as I (Ricardo) expressed to you during the ROSCON, we would like participate in the World MoveIt! day.

We have created a webinar for the purpose, with the following details:

  • In this event we will teach attendants how to use MoveIt! for controlling an industrial robot with ROS.
  • All the attendants will have full free access to the Robot Ignite Academy during the event. We will use that platform to do the exercises online, so the attendants will be able to practice with MoveIt! and ROS industrial, ask questions, receive help and support, all while listening to the webinar.
  • To attend, you only need a computer with a web browser (Chrome and Firefox supported, other may work).
  • You can attend the event following this link.

Please append this event to the list of the main event page if you can.

Thank you.
