What we’re about
Bay area meetup group for Robot Operating System (ROS) users.
ROS is an open source set of software libraries and tools that help you build robot applications. Meetups will focus on talks about ROS, Gazebo, and other elements of the ROS ecosystem. Topics can range anywhere from core development to research projects to product development.
If you want to share your experiences with ROS or come listen and discuss, this is the group for you!
