Rise of the Robots

Theodore Vorillas at CityJS 2020

Robots are used for industrial automation for more than 50 years. Yet in the last years, lots of open-source designs have been released. Also, modern JavaScript frameworks allow us to create rich and creative applications using top of the notch IoT solutions. During this talk, the attendees can witness the creative process of prototyping a robot used for mobile end to end testing, a robot that automates testing on real devices. Finally, more ideas and possibilities about the future of mixing IoT along with JavaScript and commonly used web technologies will be thoroughly presented.
