ProTips
Knowing the science does not necessarily mean being practical with the tips and tricks of the roboticist job. “ProTips” are professional tips discussing (apparently) “small details” of the everyday life of a roboticist.
We collect these tips to create a guideline for “best practices”, whether for saving time, reducing mistakes, or getting better performances from our robots. The objective is to share professional knowledge in an accessible way, to make the life of every roboticist easier!
