Build & Brag
To sign up for the Udacity Robotics Slack community, please visit robotics.udacity.com
Build & Brag was a joint initiative coined by Mike Salem and Chris Gearhart during a conversation about incorporating competitions into Udacity's Artificial Intelligence Nanodegree Program. Initially, the concept was designed to inspire students through competitions that build on the course content to extend beyond the basic assignment requirements for the program.
The concept of Build & Brag has evolved to now include any fun or interesting projects that are outside the scope of the program. Since Udacity Robotics Nanodegree Program will include hardware, why not have some fun hardware challenges?
The goal of Build & Brag is simple - you build, then you brag. You don't need to be a Udacity student to participate, and you can use whatever hardware you like.
Don't forget to talk about your project in the #build_and_brag channel!
