P.A.R.T.S.: Open Lab and Project Sharing

Join us for our monthly Portland Area RoboTics Society (P.A.R.T.S.) meeting! This month, we're hosting an open lab session where members can share their current robotics projects, collaborate on challenges, and network with fellow enthusiasts.

Unlike our typical meetings with formal presentations, this session is designed for hands-on interaction and community building. Bring your robots (working or not), share your progress, get feedback, or just come to see what others are working on.

What to Expect:

• Teensy firmware update: short overview of our common-platform robot’s Teensy firmware and AI-assistant experiences and the latest adventures in using LLM coding assistants for firmware development
• Project sharing: 5-10 minute lightning talks on what you're building
• Troubleshooting: Get help with technical challenges from experienced members
• Networking: Connect with Portland's vibrant robotics community
• Open discussions: Exchange ideas on the latest in robotics technology
