Hi everyone!
Are you into robots and looking for a club in Melbourne/Sydney/ Brisbane/Perth/Adelaide/Anywhere? :)
I live in Melbourne and have been interested in robotics for as long as I can remember but have never had much luck finding other people that are into the same thing.
Unlike the US, there doesn't seem to be many robotics clubs around in Australia for us robo-lovers to together and talk about stuff so to that end I am attempting to start a new Australia wide club.
It is Australia wide to ensure that we have the maximum number of members but could potentially have sub-nodes in every state for organisation. Information would be shared via a central website so that everyone knows what is going on everywhere else. That way if members were in another state for a holiday or something they could meet up.
I would love it if we could get something like this off the ground as it would be a great chance for us to exchange information and skills. I am a programmer by trade and have no problem with the software side of robotics. It's just the mechanical side that seems to stump me. I am sure there are people out there who are just the opposite and meeting up would benefit us all. :)
There is still a lot to work out but if anyone is interested in joining/helping or just exchanging information, please let me know via email or by replying. Also if you are a member of Facebook (http://
