Calling the robotics and autonomy communities! Outrider principal embedded software engineer Sam Mitchell donated his kidney to help his nephew Bobby. The family now needs our support to continue his care. If your circumstances allow, please donate to help.
In July, I donated a spare kidney to help my nephew, Bobby, go home after WAY TOO MUCH time in the hospital (more than 600 days), and my team at Outrider was incredibly supportive of me in taking the time to donate and recover. Now that my nephew made it home, he requires intensive care and support, and his family needs some help to move into an accessible home that meets their needs. Please consider helping me in supporting this great family in their hour of need! https://lnkd.in/gvHmiPp6

If you're planning to attend RoboBusiness, don't miss Joe Wieciek's session on the "Messy Middle" of robotic fleet deployments!
I'm excited to announce that I'll be a speaker at this year’s RoboBusiness Conference. Join me in Santa Clara on October 16-17 as I share lessons learned from my time deploying and scaling fleets at Outrider and Brain Corp (with some extra lessons gleaned from Robot Operations Group). If you're on your path from 50 to 100,000 robots, this will prepare you for some of the bumps along the way. You can explore the agenda and register for the event here: https://lnkd.in/gG5PZRmP #RoboBiz2024

FreightWaves got a behind-the-scenes look at Outrider's autonomous distribution yard test facility near Denver where the only noise is the warning beeps of driverless yard tractors moving trailers. Watch the full episode of Truck Tech with Alan Adler here: https://lnkd.in/eF4UqUeX
