ROS By-The-Bay January 2026

ROS By-The-Bay is the Bay Area's only meetup exclusively for Robot Operating System (ROS) users.

We're back from our ROSCon hiatus at our regular Google X location at 250 West Mayfield Avenue in Mountain View!

Our speaker this month will include:

• William Sitch, CBO of Main Street Autonomy will discuss targetless multi-modal (camera/lidar/radar/imu/encoder/gps-ins) sensor calibration. For real, no targets or checkerboards or environmental modification - calibrate anywhere. Main Street Autonomy is an autonomy software and services company that provides automatic sensor calibration and perception-based localization solutions to the robotics and autonomous vehicle industries.
• Katherine Scott, the OSRA Developer Advocate, will review the recently announced Intrinsic AI for Industry Challenge and also discuss the upcoming Lyric release.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR SPEAKERS FOR 2026!
