Crunching the Numbers: Topics for Crypto Robots!

After the introduction for the Crypto Robots Course, I surveyed participants and industry folks to see what topics you the viewer would like covered in the lecture series.

The results are in! It seems like multidisciplinary and Computer science topics are most popular, followed by electrical engineering and complex mechanical engineering topics.

I’m going to prioritize the most interesting and popular topics first, but eventually swing back around to cover niche fields. Get excited! The next talk in the series is currently in the works, and tickets, slides, and other material will be posted at www.swarf.io/robotics shortly!

Here are the Topic Average Scores by Discipline

Mechanical

Electrical

Software

Multidisciplinary

See you there
