Free Robot App from IEEE Robotics and Automation Society

While iPad owners have not been able to run many of the latest robot apps, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society is sponsoring free downloads of the IEEE Robot App during National Robotics Week.

This app has specifications, videos and photos of over 100 robots and is a great reference.

National Robotics Week 2013

It’s that time of the year again, from April 6-14 we will be celebrating National Robotics Week. If you want to meet up, this year we will be at this event in NYC on Tuesday April 9


Honeybee Robotics, Huge, and the NYC Economic Development Corporation are organizing a National Robotics Week meetup here in New York on April 9.

Researchers, developers and enthusiasts are gathering for an evening of presentations, live demonstrations and inspired discussion. The theme: New Frontiers in Robotics: Extending the possible. It’s a chance to learn about — and see firsthand — how machines built and used in New York City are transcending simple automation, instead enhancing new capabilities and enabling discoveries.

What: Presentations and demonstrations of leading robotics R&D from New York City
Where: HUGE, Inc — 45 Main St, Suite 220, Brooklyn
When: Tuesday, April 9, 7-10pm
Why: To learn, to share, to show off some cool homegrown robots
