Highlight of the Week | An In-Depth Exploration of Singapore's Robotics and STEM Scene 🤖🌏
💡 This week, we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Ricardo, CEO of The Construct from Spain, for a series of in-depth conversations about robotics and education!
📍 Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD)
Together, we visited the Singapore University of Technology and Design to learn more about their robotics labs and teaching resources. We were impressed by the school's rich research environment that provides strong support for robotics education and innovation!
📍 Intrinsic Singapore
Next, we visited Intrinsic to talk to a group of ROS development experts, especially about the latest progress of open RMF (Robot Management Framework). The enthusiasm and contribution of each developer gave us a deep sense of the vitality of the ROS community.
📍 EduTech Asia 2024
We also visited EduTech Asia 2024, where we met with Mr. Hu Chunxu, the founder of China's largest ROS learning community “Gu Yueju”, and saw their newest product, the Groundnut Robot, and its hosting hardware, which gave us a sense of the power of innovation in the field of science and technology in education.
📍 Stalford Academy Singapore
In addition, we also visited Stalford International Academy in Singapore to communicate with Ruby, who has been working in Singapore's education sector for 27 years, and had an in-depth discussion on the concept and future direction of technology education. As one of the largest international schools in Singapore, Stalford provides rich teaching resources and lays a solid foundation for cultivating globalized science and technology talents.
📍 ASTAR ARCT - ROS Industrial Master Class
Last but not least, we organized a ROS Industrial Master Class at ASTAR ARCT in Singapore, which brought a hands-on course on open RMF for ROS enthusiasts, including KONE Corporation, and provided an in-depth analysis of ROS applications in the field of industrial robotics.
This event not only gave us a lot of insights from different people on the field of robotics education and development, but also strengthened our belief in promoting the development of robotics education! We look forward to more opportunities for cooperation and exchange in the future! 💪🤖
