Abstract
This year, a group of IS honours students built out the cloud platform for the SAPIENT.rocks mars yard, in a project made possible by Impact.com
Now learners can:
- go to marsyard.sapient.rocks (will be live by pycon, currently it is at marsyard.labs.ws)
- code a virtual rover in blocks or python
- send that code to mission control
- get a video back of their code running in the mars yars at the Science Centre
This talk will chronicle that journey, including feedback from the UCT student group, and learners who actually ran missions. Additional speakers will add in their sections if possible.
