Bots & Bevs: An Intel Robotics Experience
Train a robot to mix your drink: Intel Robotics Happy Hour
Hosted by Intel Corporation in collaboration with Brampton Venture Zone (BVZ) by Toronto Metropolitan University and Trossen Robotics
Step into an interactive Physical AI experience and see robotics in action.
Join Intel Corporation and Trossen Robotics for a hands-on happy hour bringing together robotics developers, startups, researchers and industry leaders to connect, experiment and explore what’s next in Physical AI.
At the centre of the experience: Trossen Robotics’ Solo AI robotic arms, powered by Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 3 Processors and Intel Robotics AI Suite.
Mix a Drink. Train a Robot. Explore Physical AI.
Participants will have the opportunity to teleoperate a pair of Trossen robotic arms and take on a drink-mixing task using imitation-learning workflows.
The interactive demo offers a look at the technologies, tools and development workflows helping make next-generation intelligent robotic systems possible.
Come for the demo, stay for the conversations. Connect with developers, startups, researchers and industry leaders working at the intersection of AI, robotics and intelligent systems.
