“There are continuing efforts going on all around the world to
advance open source robot platforms–some focused on humanoid
robots and some not. We’ve covered the extraordinary open source
robotics work going on over at Willow Garage a number of times. It
is a project that originated at Stanford University. Robots being
developed within it run ROS (Robot Operating System) software, and
are surprisingly capable. Now, approximately 25 institutions are
developing robotics applications on Willow Garage’s open
platform.”
