Coarobo GK Introduced to the EU HSR Community
Kyoto, Japan — Coarobo GK was introduced to the EU members of the HSR Community during an invited lecture at the 2nd session of the EU HSR Community Webinar Series organized by Toyota Motor Europe.
The lecture, entitled "Getting Started with the HSR Software Development Environment for Team Collaboration on Robotics Projects and Competitions", was conducted by Lotfi El Hafi, President & Founder of Coarobo GK, who had been invited by Toyota Motor Corporation to share his experience and vision as the leader of the HSR Software Development Environment Working Group (SDE-WG) driven by the core members of the Japan HSR Community. Find below the abstract of the lecture:
"The presentation describes the motivations, tools, and strategies to successfully get started with the HSR Software Development Environment (SDE) collectively developed within the HSR Community by the members of the HSR SDE Working Group with the support of Toyota Motor Corporation. The HSR SDE aims at 1) enabling interdisciplinary teams to quickly start using the HSR in their projects, and 2) accelerate research implementation and integration between the members of the HSR Community by containerizing the whole HSR development, simulation, and operation process in a virtual environment that can be conveniently shared between users. This presentation should particularly be of interest to teams collaborating on large research projects or preparing for international robotics competitions with the HSR."
