Testimonials
"Overall a very well organized event, the free exhibit table was appreciated, sign-in was very easy, timing of speakers was well -organized, and networking and demonstrations were excellent. I feel we would participate in all future events at your facility."

“…I’ve been working with autonomous robots for 9 years. The robots use Robot Operating System(ROS). I’ve been trying to expose as many people as possible to ROS in the local community through MakeVention(in Bloomington), Director’s Cup and Autonomy Day. Many of the vendors and all the robots students from IU, Purdue, and IUPUI were experienced with ROS. When I discussed with them all that our robot was doing (autonomous navigation, perception, and manipulation), they were very impressed. You pulled off the greatest ROS gathering in southern Indiana in history!”
