ESC / Design West 2012
It's day one here at the show. It's still mostly called ESC but they've included a number of other shows under the name Design West.
I haven't had a lot of time to run around yet, but I have run into two robots. The first one, over at the Intel booth, is based on an ATOM embedded motherboard and a Microsoft Kinect. I stopped to take a picture and it rolled over to visit. It tried to follow me when I left, but it's owner caught it before it got too far away. It's driven by an open source software suite and targeted at university programs. I didn't have time to get the details, but if you're here at the show, drop over and check it out. Just walk fast or it might try to tag along behind you
The second robot was at Ti. It didn't follow me, but it did balance on two wheels for me.
