[Dprglist] DPRG Monthly Meeting - Aug 12 @ 11:00 AM

[Steve Edwards]

*Reminder *we will be meeting *1 hour early* this month for the Monthly
membership meeting.


>From 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Where: Interactive Classroom

Carl Ott will discuss status and preparations for his attempt to be the
first to conquer the DPRG Line Follower Challenge Course.
You'll see:

* a demo of a virtual robot which is currently making it partway around a
virtual course
* the projects' high level architecture, which is node.js and computer
vision based
* interesting findings and implications for node.js & javascript




Carl Ott will be covering some work he is doing with node.js and javascript
from a novice point of view. He will give progress update on his line
following robot/simulator, and share insights gathered so far.

In Carl's own words
"
For those not familiar with this increasingly epic journey, I'm working
towards a physical robot to conquer the DPRG challenge level line following
course, which nobody in the club has done yet.

My robot will be based on node.js / javascript and computer vision using a
CV software called RoboRealm. And I'm developing algorithms for the
physical robot using a custom simulator of both robot and line following
course.

Hope to see you there...
