Robot Academy is a free and open online learning platform developed by Professor Peter Corke of the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). Designed to support university-level robotics education, the platform features over one hundred concise video lessons that cover a wide range of topics, including kinematics, dynamics, geometry, vision, and control. Learners can explore fundamental and advanced concepts such as robotic arms, forward and inverse kinematics, motion planning, 3D spatial mathematics, trajectory control, and rigid body dynamics. The academy also offers in-depth lessons on robotic vision, including camera models, visual servoing, and object detection. The content is structured to support learners from beginner to advanced levels and is particularly focused on teaching the mathematical models and technical foundations behind real-world robotics systems. Robot Academy is supported by QUT and the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, and it is currently used by more than 200 institutions worldwide. Its concise, visual, and technically rigorous approach makes it a valuable resource for students, educators, and professionals in the robotics field. The full platform can be accessed at https://lnkd.in/e6UZvttf.

Accelerate your time to AI compute benefits We're all talking about Gen AI deployments, but how ready are we really? To get exclusive content on the latest guidance on AI compute deployments with EkkoSense. It’s a journey that organisations have either made, are making, or are about to make. There’s a real sense of FOMO - everyone’s looking over their shoulders and trying to find out just how far they’ve progressed compared to everyone else. And there’s also a fierce fight for available resources – it’s increasingly an AI goldrush as organisations look to secure their supply of AI compute resources – and the developers needed to build and train their AI applications. In this eBook Dr Stuart Redshaw, CTIO & Co-Founder, EkkoSense, looks at how this major AI reset is impacting the data centre sector. And then outlines some ways that operations teams can derisk the deployment of AI functionality within their existing facilities.

As we approach the end of the financial year, we’re pleased to share our sponsor, RSM Australia's, End of Financial Year Tax Planning White Paper. This comprehensive resource offers practical business considerations and tax optimisation strategies tailored for both individuals and businesses ahead of 30 June. Whether you're aiming to enhance your financial position or ensure full compliance, the guide delivers valuable insights to support your planning efforts.

Our network member, Applied Robotics, invites you to explore how industrial automation is shaping the future of manufacturing in Australia. In their latest whitepaper, industry experts Dr. Paul Wong, Ryan Hart, Andrew Hambly, and Simeon Larrea provide both technical and commercial perspectives on the technologies being used today to build the factories of tomorrow. From robotics to smart systems, they dive deep into what it means to future-proof Australian manufacturing—ensuring resilience, adaptability, and innovation in a rapidly evolving landscape. 📘 Download the whitepaper to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gKazYxud
