I would like to dedicate this episode to all the ROS developers who are considering professional robots and applications design, beginning with simulations. Starting with simulations is crucial, even if your preference is to work with real robots, to avoid errors and save time. If this is what you think when you are developing robots, then this episode is dedicated to you!
Today, we are going to talk about simulations!
But before going into the meat, let me tell you about the Robotics Developer Masterclass that we at The Construct have created. The Robotics Developer Masterclass is a full teaching package that lasts about 6 months, you can go at your own pace. It will teach you all the skills you need to go into a company and start working with programming robots. You will have all the practical skills that companies are requesting. You can have a look at the Path that we are providing to you where we bring you from novice status into a robotics developer status where you are job-ready to be hired and work from Day one. Our program is based on several phases. For each phase, you are going to have some online courses with simulations that also connect with the remote robot lab we have built for the different phases. For Phase 1, we have the City Lab.
For Phase 2, we have the Warehouse Robot Lab.
For Phase 3, we have the Cyberworld Robot Lab.
For the final project, you’ll have to work in a Real Robot Cafeteria that we built at The Construct.
Students’ final project By the end of the program, you’ll have a 3-month internship (optional) at some robotics company to practice the skills you have learned from the Masterclass.
The next batch will be opened in March 2024.
Have a look at our webpage about the different subjects you can learn on ROS1 and ROS2 and start the practice with robots from minute one with The Construct.
Let me introduce you to Buck Babich, a senior Robotics R&D manager at Nvidia. Buck is currently working on manipulation, planning control, and simulations. Today, he will be talking with us about simulations, particularly ‘Isaac Sim’, the simulator developed by Nvidia for robotics.
Welcome to the podcast, Buck!
