Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi, I'm a Level 7 mechanical engineering student and I am considering a career in robotics. What would be the best way to become familiar with robotic design and programming?

    Firstly, start with C as a programming language. I'm not sure about the path to robotics, but you have mechanical engineering under your belt, so I would suggest using the Raspberry Pi and Arduino boards for basics electronics. Both will give you a good introduction to programming as well.
