What are the most important networking opportunities for a career in robotics automation?
The Pittsburgh Robotics Network provides membership for organizations including academic, research and companies. If you have a business with presence in the area, you should consider joining this network. There are several relevant events along the years, gatherings that promote networking, and the yearly Discovery Day, when most of these organizations exhibit their work and their talent. The Discovery Day also has a program focused on high school students, startups, etc. I strongly recommend you to join. Visit robopgh.org. Also, connecting with PRN, you will have a chance to learn of other organizations and initiates that may be fit for your interests: Innovation Works, Robotic Factory, etc.

Autonomous Technologies: Applications That Matter

Over the years, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Challenges in the United States have galvanized interest in autonomous cars, making them a real possibility in the mind of the public, but autonomous and unmanned vehicles have been increasingly employed in many roles on the ground, in the water, and in the air.

The book assists readers in identifying profitable opportunities and avoiding costly misconceptions with respect to civilian applications of autonomous vehicle technologies as it brings together chapters on how air, water, and ground vehicles are becoming ever more used and appreciated.Other authors -
