Achieving Balance in the Workshop
Fifty people. Fifty robots. One room. Finding balance is a journey. In this hands-on workshop, you'll assemble a balance bot from a custom carrier board built on the Nerves starter kit, then build a Phoenix app to drive it from your phone. We'll cover hardware assembly, Nerves fundamentals, and building a simple control interface. By the end, your robot will stand on its own two wheels - at least briefly - and you'll leave with the bot and your own repo to continue the journey.
Registration is free. Please only register if you intend to attend — we have limited capacity. You can also browse all workshops.
