GOFIRST Summer Robotics Summit 2015 -- Call for Presenters!
 

GOFIRST's Summer Robotics Summit - SRS for short - is an annual event held mid-summer for FRC teams looking to build off of the previous season into the next. SRS was started in 2012 as an event for higher-level topics that are valuable, but never fit elsewhere. One major goal of SRS has therefore been to bring in highly-qualified speakers not simply to lecture, but to break down complicated subjects and to help advance the Minnesota robotics community. To address the evolving needs of the Minnesota robotics community, this year we are asking teams and individuals to share their expertise in robotics related areas-- both in technical and non-technical areas. We invite any FIRST team in Minnesota to propose a workshop session-- approximately one hour-- in an area of your expertise. Please This year's SRS will be held on July 18 at the STSS building/Bruininks Hall on the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities campus.

Please submit proposals here by June 14th at 11:59 PM. We will get back you you on or before June 22nd.

Thank you for sharing your expertise with the Minnesota robotics community!

FYI, I had already filled out the form and submitted before I realized there's no field on there for contact info - you may want to add an e-mail address field so you know how to get ahold of people! Granted, I think most of you already have my e-mail address :p

Whoops! Thank you for pointing this out! We've added that field to the survey.

Thank you for applying!

That is the date of IRI if you don't already know.:(

Yup, we're well aware that we'll likely be missing a team or two due to this conflict. Heck, it even threw a wrench in my personal plans to visit. It is rather unfortunate, but there are a limited number of weekends available that worked for us.

Random thought: live stream IRI between sessions? :D

At one of our planning meetings, we joked about having an all day "session" that was the IRI livestream. Then someone brought up that such a session might defeat the purpose of the event, as everyone would be watching IRI.
