Willow Garage: The Personal Robot Will Be Open Source
,----[ Quote ]
| Want to build a robot? Join the club. Want to improve the way we build
| robots? Join Willow Garage. This silicon valley based robotics company is not
| just designing robots, they’re working on how we design robots by building a
| programming language and a standard research bot. Best of all, their software
| is open source - able to be viewed by its users so that they can understand
| and upgrade it as needed. Imagine a future where each robotics developer can
| share hardware and software components with each other in a modular fashion.
| You could just build a robot like a plug and play computer. With open source
| techniques Willow Garage hopes to expand the boundaries of robotics, both in
| research laboratories and in our daily lives.
