Edinburgh Robotics Meetup - ROS1 Wake

In Edinburgh, a robot is always just a stone throw away. If you'd like know the people who are making this happen or maybe you just want to make sure the robots are friendly, then this is the event you've been looking for. This time we also welcome all attendees of the Open Hardware Summit that is taking place in Edinburgh the weekend following the meetup.

It also an ospicious occasion because the official end-of-life for ROS1 is 31st May. We'll look back an forward on what ROS brought to our community and where we'll be going next.

As usual, this is your chance to socialise and network with professionals, academics and enthusiasts across Edinburgh. It is the place for you if you are looking for a drink and chat about robotics, have an interesting problem you need a second pair of eyes on, want to find out about careers in robotics, are looking for an internship, job or your next star employee, want to find a co-founder, or if you watched a movie you’d like to talk about.

Slack channel: We have created a slack channel to give everyone space to connect and continue the networking and riveting conversations. Please join the slack channel here (this time with a permamnent working link).

Lightning talks: We'll be also running a session of lightning talks. If you'd like to give a speedy 3 minute talk please do get in touch. Best way to sign up for a lightning talk is via the slack channel. We're looking for a variety of topics. Anything goes: from software tools, favourite robot toys, 3D printer tips and tricks, summary of your latest research paper, pitch of your latest idea, new programming langue you like, to your plan change the world.
