At the recent (July 2015) We Connect the Dots Creating STEAM conference, Team 1 programmed a Trossen Robotics HR-OS1 to stand itself up! This is an essential movement for a bided robot so that it can can back up on its way after a fall. It’s exciting to see students with an active interest in robotics achieve – Go Team 1! We Connect the Dots is a great organization, which focuses on getting students involved in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) careers. This video is just a small glimpse of the scope of their project, so make sure to check them out
We’re really excited to see what else the students can do with the HR-OS1s. We know we’ve got a wishlist of things we want to see the robots do – but what about you? Let us know in the comments what you’d like to see the HR-OS1 do.

Go Team 1!!! Seriously, this was the coolest thing I’ve seen on twitter in a while. Did anyone watch the DARPA Finals this year? Only one robot stood back up after a fall. Hello future engineers!
