Special Event #2: Let's build a robot! 🤖

Details

Here's a very special event brought to you by our friends at LumaBit - we'll build our own robot, and learn how to write code for it!

There are four robot kits (these: https://shorturl.at/UdzyB) which we will assemble and program together Hackathon-style. Depending on the amount of participants we'll team up - there'll be enough to do for everyone for sure.

We have four different challenges prepared, depending on your prior knowledge of the topic:

Level 1: Assembly and use of the supplied software kit – ideal for those looking to gain initial experience with robotics.
Level 2: Control via ROS 2, the powerful framework for robotics. A preconfigured computer is available to help learn the basics of robot control.
Level 3: Analyze camera data using OpenCV and develop an obstacle avoidance algorithm to enable the robot to navigate autonomously.
Level 4: Develop a TensorFlow model to make the robot follow a line – perfect for those wanting to integrate AI with robotics.

We'll provide food and drinks as usual. Note that this is not our usual meetup-style - there will be no presentation, we'll only build the robots (as if that wasn't enough 🛠️).

We'll provide the robot kits and motors, you only need to bring your own PC and have installed:
- VS Code
- Python
- Arduino IDE
