The Reddit Robotics Showcase 2022

Throughout the pandemic, members of the reddit & discord r/robotics group rallied to arrange an internet showcase for members of our group. 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 unimaginable roster of contributors from the world over. You may watch final 12 months’s showcase right here.

This 12 months, we’re planning an occasion which anticipates the passion we’ve had from our group, persevering with to supply a singular alternative for roboticists all over the world to share and focus on their work, no matter age or capacity.

A small collection of final 12 months’s robotic’s.

We’re delighted to obtain help from Wevolver, Robohub, The Nationwide Robotarium, and the IEEE-RAS Tender Robotics Podcast, who’re serving to us to achieve extra individuals from academia trade, and guarantee we’re proactive with our illustration of range.

“It’s nice to see the reddit showcase is occurring once more! I introduced final 12 months, 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 vital to see a various group, 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.

We prolong an open invitation to these eager to share their robotics with the world. Please apply through this on-line kind hyperlink. Profitable candidates will likely be supplied a timeslot of 10, 15, or half-hour, which incorporates each presentation and Q&A time. The committee will kind presentation classes based mostly on the purposes. If you happen to want to register your curiosity as a keynote speaker, please e-mail RRS chair Olly Smith straight.

To use, please submit an software through this hyperlink earlier than the deadline of April thirtieth.

The Purpose

The first function of this occasion is to showcase the multitude of initiatives underway within the r/Robotics Reddit group. 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 energetic members within the robotics group all over the world. The showcase will characteristic invited roboticists in analysis and trade to debate what they see as technical challenges or attention-grabbing instructions for robots. We’ll give attention to the next subjects and showcase a number of the wonderful work being performed by amateurs and teachers, college students and trade professionals alike.
