The IEEE University of Dayton Student Chapter is thrilled to invite you to an interactive robotics workshop on Saturday February 1, 2025! In this hands-on session, students will explore cloud-based systems and integrate advanced AI tools, including generative AI, to develop and control robotic applications using the quadruped Mini Pupper (robot dog). Blending theory with practical experience, participants will learn to manage robotic operations from design to deployment, leveraging AWS cloud services, Python programming, the Robot Operating System (ROS), and AI technologies. During the workshop, students will program the robot to follow a line and perform dance routines synced to music of their choice. The event promises to be a fun, engaging experience, designed to spark interest in robotic programming. Participants will also have the chance to apply their newly acquired skills in a Mini Pupper competition at the IEEE SAC 2025. Registration is $50 for IEEE Members and $100 for Non-Members1 through February 26, 2025 and includes: – Access to rental Mini Pupper robotics kits onsite 2 (PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP WITH WINDOWS 11) – Boxed lunch – Event t-shirt – Lots of fun and networking with other university students and robotics enthusiasts! 1 Non-Member Students can join IEEE for only $32 here: https://www.ieee.org/membership/join/dues.html 2 There is also an option to purchase a kit. Please email Dr. Doll for information at: (mailto:aneidharddoll1@udayton.eduy) Seats are limited, so register as soon as possible to secure your spot and help us finalize the necessary preparations. Rates increase by $100 after February 26 at 5:00pm!
