Quadruped and humanoid robots are currently being developed and deployed in manufacturing, healthcare and hospitality, agriculture, police and corrections. We currently have over 200 robots in educational institutions across the US. Stokes Robotics provides training on proper and safe usage of our robots, as well as curriculum to develop research and educational programming. We will discuss how robots are currently being utilized, the projected future applications, and providehands-on demonstrations.
Please join us while we share information that will benefit students, as well as give options for overall community and career success. We will discuss a specific employment and education program *KYFAME* while discussing student and employer engagement. This session will include an OFF-SITE TOUR of the AMIT Building where the local FAME program is housed. A shuttle will be provided to transport attendees to / from the facility; pre-registration is required for shuttle service. Location is 1.7 miles away.This session is open to all attendees.
What is ROS? What is open-source robotics and why does it matter?ROS was created by Stanford University in 2007 and has become a force driving open-source robotics and innovation.The SBA and US Bureau of Labor Statistics forecast that 600k small businesses will automate over the next 10 years. This represents a tremendous job growth opportunity for todays students; tomorrows workforce.The presentation will include: ROS history, datapoints, growth forecasts, hands-on demonstrations andan introduction to ATMAE.orgs CIRP (certified industrial robotics programmer) credential for open-source robotics.
Explore immersive AR/VR applications across Manufacturing, Industrial Maintenance, Health Sciences, Agri-Science, Automotive/Diesel, Biology, Chemistry, and other CTE pathways. Experience hands-on demonstrations using zSpace equipment and curriculum.
Traditional welding instruction often struggles to bridge the gap between heavy textbooks and hands-on booth time. This session provides a practical roadmap for implementing Miller OpenBook as your primary instructional backbone. We will move beyond the basic setup and dive into how to leverage pre-built modules, track student progress in real-time, and customize the curriculum to fit your specific shop needs.
