Robots on the front page! Last week, the Pittsburgh Robotics Network made a big splash with Robotics Discovery Day. From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “Birdbrain Technologies [...] seeks to make coding fun and accessible. Its hands-on system, Finch, launched in 2020 and has 'grown exponentially since then,' Mr. Lauwers said. The cute blue robot birds drive around, avoiding obstacles and following drawn out lines, or leaving behind their own trail by holding a marker.”
