Frankentosh: Building Robots using Mac OS X
 
   
  • Robotics and Mac OS X
    • We'll cover the "AI" concepts behind robotics created using Mac OS X
    • This talk also assumes a familiarity with basic C/Java coding concepts
    • Two "systems" are discussed, Lego Mindstorms and IBM Alphaworks' Robocode
    • Both are basic systems and easily available for Mac OS X
    • But the concepts introduced directly apply to larger systems
    • All self-contained robots, to some level, requires sensor reading, data interpretation, action definition, and control of systems
  • These mimic human action -- hence "AI"
