Joseph Casebeer brings a few H.I.R.O. robots to Thinkspace and takes the room through hands-on programming demos on his full stack robotics platform. He'll also cover the roadmap to becoming a full stack robotics engineer and how to set up a home lab.
The jump into robotics from a pure software background isn't a simple one. There are layers all the way down to the electronics that developers don't usually deal with, and they matter in a robotics job. This session is for developers who want to understand how a robot works end to end.
What you'll learn
What runs on the microcontroller versus the Linux computer
How sensors and control loops fit together
What "physical AI" means on small hardware
The roadmap to becoming a full stack robotics engineer, and how to set up a home lab
Who should attend
Software and ML engineers who want to move into robotics
Engineers who want a cheap testbed for control, state estimation and multi-robot ideas before moving to expensive hardware
Teams planning hack weeks or internal robotics training
H.I.R.O. is a low-cost platform for learning and prototyping, not industrial hardware.
About the instructor
Joseph Casebeer, Founder and CEO, Takamori Robot
Joseph is an engineer who loves building robots and tech solutions that help people. He has been building robots since high school. He loves robotics because it's one field where the end product can look like anything and can be designed to solve any problem. He started Takamori Robot to share that love with the world, under the mantra "Robots are fun, and exploration is play!" He believes robotics shouldn't be a joyless pursuit of cookie cutter humanoids, machines that cause mass layoffs, or dystopian DoD contracts. So he built Takamori Robot as a toybox for everyone who thinks they can build a better future, and more awesome robots.
