[Alan Timm]

Our Monthly Meetup @ CSULB!

Please join us this Saturday May 10th at 10:00am for our next *in person* Meetup!

​
Plug 1331 Palo Verde Ave, Long Beach, CA into your GPS and google will take you right to the front door.  :-)

We'll also post a sign at our old-new meeting place for anyone who wanders over there.

Here's what's on the agenda...

9:30 am:  The Doors open.  Stop by early and say hi!  Or log in early to make sure your mic works.  We'll be here.

9:45 am:  Business meeting

10:00 am:​   (Intermediate) Alfie's been assembled and on-line for three weeks!  Let's celebrate by doing a deep dive into the closed-loop stepper assembly for his back.  We'll start with the control protocol, some hiccups along the way, and we'll end up with a reusable python component that provides reliable control and closed-loop feedback. (Alan) #alfiethebot #alfierocks #alfieisassembledfornowbutdon'tgetusedtoit

11:00 am:​  (Beginner) In this hands-on beginner robotics class, we’ll take our Raspberry Pi Pico-powered bots to the next level! Building on last month’s motor control, we’ll add an ultrasonic sensor to help our robots detect and avoid obstacles—giving them a sense of their surroundings.  (Ethan) #picobotsrock #isthereanobstacleornot #oopsihititagain

12:00 pm:  30 minute grab-n-go Lunch Break

12:30 pm:  Announcements / Show-n-Tell / Open Session.  It's a great opportunity to ask questions and get advice.  Our members will bring in their projects and share what we've been up to.  Are you working on something?  Bring it in!

For anyone unable to attend in person, here's the Zoom info for this Saturday's meeting.
