Attended the Microsoft NXT MDP Demo

I attended Microsoft’s NXT demo yesterday. What a great event! Not to mention the free box lunch :) NXT MDP Steven Hassenplug, David Schilling and Christopher Smith were there showing off their robots. The funny thing is that I didn’t even realize Christopher from the nxt step was actually there until I read Jim’s (actually Christopher wrote it) blog entry at http://thenextstep.blogspot.com/ this morning! What a small world!

Anyway, we got some cool demo from both the MDPs and the Microsoft Robotics team. For pictures and details, click here.

Two new bots we saw yesterday: (1) Christopher’s cool “Starwar” bot and (2) Microsoft’s NXT bot controlled from a PC via a bluetooth phone on the robot:
