The Reddit Robotics Showcase 2022

Through the pandemic, members of the reddit & discord r/robotics neighborhood rallied to arrange a web based showcase for members of our neighborhood. What was initially envisioned as a half-day occasion with one mildly attention-grabbing visitor speaker turned out to be a two day occasion with an unbelievable roster of contributors from the world over. You’ll be able to watch final yr’s showcase right here.

This yr, we’re planning an occasion which anticipates the keenness we’ve had from our neighborhood, persevering with to offer a singular alternative for roboticists all over the world to share and talk about their work, no matter age or skill.

A small collection of final yr’s robotic’s.

We’re delighted to obtain help from Wevolver, Robohub, The Nationwide Robotarium, and the IEEE-RAS Smooth Robotics Podcast, who’re serving to us to succeed in extra folks from academia business, and guarantee we’re proactive with our illustration of range.

“It’s nice to see the reddit showcase is going on once more! I introduced final yr, and it was a pleasure to see hobbyists, professionals, teachers and college students all collectively in a single place sharing their ardour for robotics. It’s essential to see a various neighborhood, so I actually encourage everybody to use!

– Sabine Hauert, President of Robohub –

The showcase is free and on-line, and is to be held on July thirtieth & thirty first 2022, livestreamed through the Reddit Robotics Showcase YouTube channel.

The Intention

The first function of this occasion is to showcase the multitude of tasks underway within the r/Robotics Reddit neighborhood. Subjects vary throughout all focuses of robotics, akin to simulation, navigation, management, notion, and mechatronic design. We’ll use this showcase to current dialogue items and foster dialog between lively members within the robotics neighborhood all over the world. The showcase will characteristic invited roboticists in analysis and business to debate what they see as technical challenges or attention-grabbing instructions for robots. We’ll concentrate on the next matters and showcase a few of the wonderful work being executed by amateurs and teachers, college students and business professionals alike.
