*Part 1: LFS Client/Server Demo*

Ron will demo fresh updates to his Line Following Simulator project. This
is a rapidly evolving project which DPRG hopes to feature in its’
at-least-partly-virtual 2020 Fall Robot competition. This latest version
has a client/server architecture, designed to better separate robot code
from simulator code. This updated architecture should implicitly help robot
builders create a better abstraction layer between their controller logic
and the hardware platform. With any luck, and a little planning – you may
even find it easy to port your abstract robot controller to a physical
robot.

Back-story- Ron and Will shared a very capable but early version of this
environment in DPRG’s 8 Aug meeting – watch it here:

And then, in a regular Tuesday night online chat, we all realized that it
was the PERFECT tool for today’s COVID-19 world. Watch the concept
crystallize here starting around 1:50:34:

Bottom line- we’re working to allow contestants to submit virtual robots to
compete in a standard simulation environment this Nov/Dec. We may not be
able to host a big crowd at the Dallas Maker Space, but we hope to attract
competitors and groupies from all over the globe!

*Part 2: Web Meeting Broadcast & Recording Tools*

Stuck attending virtual meetings from home?
Looking for ways to jazz up and web-share something fancier than your
desktop?
Want to create picture in picture, or mix cameras, screens and other media
sources in real time?

Carl will demo several handy Open Source/ Freemium items for these virtual
times,
including
• OBS: Open Broadcaster Software®️
• NDI Tools for Win/Mac, and companion mobile apps
• various plugins that help tie it all together...
