Warmest Greetings to the entire IITR Community!

Robotics has become highly interdisciplinary and is a rapidly-growing field today with applications in almost all branches of engineering. It is also a very tempting domain for many young students to explore due to a plethora of available resources, large support for implementing one's skills through various open-source platforms, and an abundance of opportunities in the industry and academia. Our college also has a budding robotics culture thanks to various campus groups working on different areas in the field. However, one thing that's lacking is a pan-campus forum where people from different specializations and varying levels of expertise can come together.

Thus, with an aim to further develop the robotics discourse in our college, Team Robocon is starting an open server for all the robotics enthusiasts in IITR. Here, you can ask your doubts, participate in weekly paper presentations, showcase your work and discuss anything related to robotics with like-minded people!
