Presenter: Peter Johnson and Brad Miller, XRP and WPILib development teams

Join Peter Johnson and Brad Miller from the WPILib development team to learn what’s new about the eXperiential Robotics Platform or XRP for FRC teams. XRP is an open-source robotics platform intended to spur new interest and participation in robotics programs. XRP is fully supported by the WPILib development environment, making it a perfect training and recruiting tool for new FRC team members.

This session will offer hands-on programming with the XRP and the WPILib environment. Attendees can expect to learn how to program the XRP using the WPILib environment.

This is a hands-on session, so please bring your WPILib-capable laptops to participate fully. See https://docs.wpilib.org/en/stable/docs/zero-to-robot/step-2/wpilib-setup.html
