Building a Mars Rover with Mecha

Join us for an exciting, hands-on workshop where you'll learn to deploy and communicate with a Mars Rover from the base station! This workshop is perfect for students and engineers eager to dive into basics of hardware development and some robotics. You'll get practical experience working with IO. Send navigational commands to your rover and receive real-time metrics. We'll also guide you in deploying an API to the Cloud for seamless communication with your rover. As a bonus, you'll create a Telegram bot to interact with your rover.

Topics covered -

1. Basics of communicating to hardware via IO
2. Cloud connectivity and provisioning
3. IoT Networking and communication
4. Collecting Metrics and publishing via OpenTelemetry

The workshop will involve using the Mecha (https://mecha.so) hardware and cloud platform.
