Title: "Patin": Autonomous robot platform by Flower Robotics
Abstract:
In this talk, we will introduce our novel autonomous robot platform "Patin". Patin is compatible with ROS and consists of a movable base with an autonomously behaving AI. Various functions can be connected to it such as lighting or planting. Patin’s AI can behave autonomously by integrating lightings mounted on it or responding to the request of plant care. We believe Patin can introduce new viewpoint to existing products in our daily life such as thinking illumination or thinking green. In this talk we will explain the overall structure of Patin and its SDK for developing applications on it. The talk also includes live demonstrations on how to use the SDK.
