Robots and Food London Node User Group - June 2019

Wednesday, 26 June 2019

At Karakuri we build robots for the food industry. I would love to share a peek into our decentralised architecture and how the different robot components interact and communicate with each other. As the physical world is quite I/O heavy, Node.js (TypeScript) was a great choice as our main programming language/framework.

I have a double Masters degree in Innovation Design Engineering and am the course leader of the robotics course at the Imperial College Global Summer School. I work as Head of Software at Karakuri, a robotics startup. We just secured a seed funding round led by Ocado (https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/09/robotics-startups-wont-win-without-also-incorporating-ai-as-karakuris-fundraise-shows/?guccounter=1)
