ABSTRACT
Maybe the robot invasion is a good thing
21st Nov, 17:00
Maybe the robots will round us up in internment camps, or maybe we'll be sipping cocktails by the pool while our gadgets sweep our streets and stock our shops. Find out why robotics researcher, Dr Subramanian Ramamoorthy prefers to think the future will contain more of the latter than the former.
The workshop is free to attend, but advanced registration is required: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/mona-an-affordable-open-source-mobile-robot-for-research-and-education-tickets-37982468586
Duration: 60 to 90 min

The Centre is delighted to welcome Dr Sen Wang to the academic team based at Heriot-Watt University. Dr Wang's research interests include localisation, navigation, robotic vision, SLAM, autonomy, robot learning.
An inter-disciplinary team, involving students and academics from across Heriot-Watt University, took the CBBC channel by storm on Thursday 10th August with an appearance on the long-running magazine programme, Blue Peter.
A group of PhD students from Heriot-Watt University are the only team from the UK to be chosen as one of three finalists in Amazon's $2.5 Million Alexa Prize.
The six strong student group, from the Interaction Lab in the School of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, were originally chosen from over 100 entries from 22 countries world-wide.
