RoboGames 2008 this weekend

Filed under: ,


The fifth annual RoboGames is happening this weekend in San Francisco. RoboGames is a broad reaching competition designed to bring together specialists in all areas of robotics. Last year's event had 800 entries in 62 different events. The biggest audience draw is definitely the combat robots shown in the video above, but there are other skill and task based competitions. If you're in the area, this is definitely worth your time. Check out ROBOT magazine's coverage from last year to get an idea of what you'll see (or in our case miss).
