[Dprglist] node.js for robots? Mark your Calendar - 29 July & 12 Aug

[Carl Ott]

Ever wondered about trying a different language platform for your robot?

Thinking about dabbling with javascript and node.js?

If you're interested or curious, c'mon out to *International NodeBots day
2017*.
*This Saturday - 29 July*
Here in Dallas

which is one of several locations

Later, in the *12 Aug DPRG meeting*, I'll touch a little on node.js and
javascript from a novice point of view. I'll give an update on my line
following robot/simulator, and share insights gathered so far. 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.
You can read more about that here

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...

Carl
