Project coordinator Mr. Arend-Jan Beltman successfully presented the very essence of the I-MECH project during the ‘Lightning Talks’, an event organized by the 040coders software community on the 21st of November. The audience was full of programmers that are close to the challenges of domesticating the physics of systems. The great talks and informative chats generated after the presentation and demonstration of our medical manipulator were very inspiring. Important insights about I-MECH have been shared and we look forward to further collaboration with this strong community full of professional programmers and coders.
