Thursday, May 15th: Intro to the Robot Operating System (ROS)

Interested in Robots? Want to make them do your bidding? Come down to HackPittsburgh this Thursday for an introduction to the Robot Operating System (ROS) and learn about an opensource robotic software framework to build advanced robotic systems. This will be an introductory level talk with a live demonstration! Come down to the shop and check it out.

For those that aren’t familiar, “The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a flexible framework for writing robot software. It is a collection of tools, libraries, and conventions that aim to simplify the task of creating complex and robust robot behavior across a wide variety of robotic platforms.” – ROS.org

Free and open to the public! Doors open at 7pm. We’re located at 1936 5th Avenue, in the garage around back on Watson. Look for our flag above the door.
