Abstract
Scott has rewritten his robotics API and written another book, Robotics Programming 101 (http://www.roboticsprogramming101.com) coming out in May of 2011, where the programs are written in PBASIC, Arduino, JRuby and Java. Think of this book as a lightweight quick start guide to robotics programming.
During this talk he’ll bring his Feynman-Jr-2 robot, http://www.scottsbots.com/robot/feynman-jr-2 , where he will give an overview the API and demo programs ranging from basic movements to computer vision.
