Are you new to imzy? Come and say hi to the imzy community!
Hi!
Hi everyone. I teach undergrads programming and I really like robots. I'd love to see where imzy goes cuz it sounds like it has great intentions. Hope to meet some wonderful people here.




Robots!
Heya welcome! What do you think it is about robots that holds your interest?
It's really making robots intelligent that interests me. It's really really cool because somehow you're trying to replicate human intelligence and inputs and outputs and you can never get it exactly the way humans do it and that's just fascinating.
agreed, that is pretty cool :)
What kind of programming do you do/teach? Have you actually built robots? What kinds of things were they for/did they do?
I teach C++. They build lego mindstorm robots in my course. And then they build robots using arduinos for another course. We have this robotics contest each year. The theme varies. This time it was grid based localization with pick and place.
That sounds really cool!
Hi @canatan. How is teaching? I'm a Ph.D. student in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, so I've TA'ed programming classes before.
Where do you study @zhemao?
UC Berkeley
Sweet! What is your focus? I've been thinking about applying there myself.
I'm in Computer Architecture. We have one of the top architecture labs in the world.

What are you thinking of going to grad school for, robotics? We have very good robotics labs too.
Where do you teach?
Impressive. And yes, robotics. Computer vision, to be specific. Finished my undergrad 2 years ago, so I am currently working at a startup.
So in my country we don't have enough PhDs. Which is why I can teach undergrads with out a PhD which is sad. Teaching is fun once you get the hang of it. In hoping to go for my PhD soon. If I can get past international red tape.
Which country?
Pakistan
Yeah, I can see why you wouldn't have many Ph.D.s, since they all come over here ;-)
Best of luck in your grad school apps.
Hahaha hahaha that was funny =p spot on too. On the plus side if you're ever out of a job you know you'll always get one here =p thank you
Do we have a robotics community yet? Ooooh.
I couldn't find one.
Sounds like folks are interested. Band together and make one? :D
Yes let's. I don't think I can make one. I'll be happy to join if someone does =D
I think everyone is able to make 2 communities by default when they sign up, unless they changed something for public launch. So you should be able to create a new one here.
O I made one. Here https://www.imzy.com/robotics Thats kind of scary. Please join if you're interested everyone and I can make people leaders I think ?
Woohoo! @TheLizardQueen, @zhemao, @nauj, here it is! https://www.imzy.com/robotics
Oh awesome!
Where do you teach? And I love building robots myself!
I teach in Pakistan :) that's pretty cool!!
