WEBINAR: The Waterloo RoboHub: What is it, and why should you care?

The Waterloo RoboHub is a state-of-the-art research, testing, and training facility, housed in the brand new Engineering 7 building at the University of Waterloo, Canada. With a unique fleet of robots, including fixed-base, wheeled, aerial, maglev, and humanoid robots, RoboHub enables innovative research on multi-robot and human-robot teams.

In this webinar, Dr. Brandon DeHart, Manager of the Waterloo RoboHub, will give us a tour of the Waterloo RoboHub, explain what the RoboHub is all about, what kinds of research questions are being evaluated by the RoboHub's research team, and how it all relates to undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education in Mechatronics on the University of Waterloo campus.

Join us on Tuesday, June 25, 2019, at 2 pm EDT (US & Canada).

Dr. Brandon DeHart is the Manager of the Waterloo RoboHub and a Sessional Instructor at the University of Waterloo. Brandon has been working with mobile and legged robots for over ten years, with a research focus on balance and gait for bipedal robots. In his role as the RoboHub Manager, he is responsible for the purchase, installation, configuration, and testing of all new robotic platforms, and the deployment of any additional essential equipment such as the control center, safety systems, and environmental variation systems. He will also coordinate and supervise the day-to-day technical activities being undertaken by technical staff, students, and researchers at the facility.
