We are handing the mic over to you .
If you have been building, programming, or tinkering with a robotics project lately, this is your chance to share it with the community.
We are hosting a night of lightning talks where you can showcase your work in a quick, five to ten minute presentation .
We have an incredible lineup of local builders, engineers, and researchers sharing their latest work in robotics and artificial intelligence. Each speaker has a limited window to share their insights, so expect a fast paced night covering everything from reverse engineering the brain to edge computing hardware.
Tristan Slominski Topic: Sensorimotor Intelligence: Reverse engineering the neocortexDescription: Introduction to the core mechanism of biological intelligence: how brains use movement to understand/perceive the world (sensorimotor integration, cortical columns, reference frames).
Aaron Brown Topic: Scaling Robotics Intelligence at the Edge with SiMa.aiDescription: Learn about ML deployment on purpose built ML SoC hardware.
Raven Asher Raziel Topic: Fang Robotics: How a Community College Robotics Team outdid UTDescription: How a community college robotics team built a NASA Lunabotics rover that scored higher than UT Austin. Engineering choices, budgeting, and testing.
