Biography:
Kat spent most of her career building super cool software in various startups. She co-founded SightMachine, where she was working on a data platform for manufacturing, and later Tempo Automation, where she built software to automate the design of PCBs. After that, Kat led image analytics teams at Planet (satellite imagery for the world’s most prominent organizations) and 3Scan (insights based on medical imagery). Today, at Open Robotics, she’s on a mission to make building robots accessible to everyone. Kat will present their open-source Robotics OS (ROS) and demonstrate it on a live robot.
