studio VS zotero

> Especially a tool like RViz is always missing. And in many many robotics video I see (of a moderately complex robot), there's ROS's RViz on some screen.

I would love the future robotics development stack to be more modular, so that (for example) future middleware solutions don't need to also bundle their own visualization software. This was direct inspiration for creating Foxglove Studio[0] for visualization and MCAP[1] for logging - both work great with ROS, or equally well without it.

That's the true strength of combining existing open source solutions. Thanks for the great support of Foxglove Inc. over the past few years.

Email in profile if you have questions.

It's a common misconception that you need a ML or robotics PhD to work in the field. There are plenty of frontend & backend web engineering, data engineering, and infrastructure/devops roles available at robotics companies - you don't need to be a domain expert.

For example, at Foxglove[0] we are building open source web-based visualization and data management for robotics (shameless plug: currently hiring).

You can use the rosbag commandline-tool to figure out all of this: http://wiki.ros.org/rosbag/Commandline rosbag info for example can give you some of the type/number of messages information. For more complex stuff, you could use https://foxglove.dev/ to visualize and inspect rosbags

Web-based data visualization for robotics and self-driving. Robotics is such an interesting industry, and we're only scratching the surface of what new tools are needed.

Try it live here (hit "view sample data"): https://studio.foxglove.dev/

And it's open source! https://github.com/foxglove/studio

Shameless plug - we're hiring: https://foxglove.dev/careers

When our team at Foxglove announced MCAP, we wanted to empower teams to spend less time building commodity tools and more time tackling their hardest robotics challenges.

Dev tools for robotics and autonomous vehicles.

Robotics will have a massive positive impact on the world economy and global human productivity over the coming decade. At Foxglove, we're building powerful web-based open source & commercial tools to accelerate this trend.

We're a small, highly experienced, and fast moving team. We're looking to hire several more people (most roles don't require previous robotics experience, unless specified below):

- Senior Frontend Engineer (react, typescript, some webgl+wasm)

- Senior Full Stack Engineer (typescript, some golang)

- First Product Manager (robotics/AV experience required)

- First Account Executive (infrastructure SaaS experience required)

React + Typescript. Forgot to mention it’s open source so you can see for yourself:

Maybe try Zotero[1]. There are many addons which can do what you need.

And next time, you use a real literature management program like zotero (some university libraries offer classes, there is a r/zotero, etc) or jabref to create a proper bibtex file with the references. It is not that difficult, and keeps you sane (esp. if a paper has to be formatted for a different publisher). See e.g. learnlatex.

Zotero | Remote | Full-Time or Part-Time | https://www.zotero.org

Zotero is an open-source project that develops software to help people collect, organize, annotate, cite, and share their research. Our software is recommended by most universities and used by millions of students, scholars, scientists, and researchers worldwide.

We're looking for a JavaScript developer to work on Zotero "translators" — the pieces of code that let people click a button in their browser toolbar on any webpage and save high-quality metadata and files to their Zotero libraries. If you like web scraping, APIs, data formats, and exploring sites in the browser devtools, this would be up your alley. As a core Zotero developer, you'll also have the ability to work across Zotero's vast ecosystem and help shape the future of the project.

This is an open-ended contract role that can scale up and down in hours based on availability and workload.

Zotero is your answer, it even auto generates your citations.

Apparently there are plugins for Logseq and Obsidian as well.

Zotero - Price: Free Free and open-source reference manager that helps you collect, organize, and cite your research sources.

I use the free and open source Zotero which I think you'd find very calibre-like and manage notes and concept linking with org-roam in emacs.

If you can't hold the urge to know, you can check on the Zotero web library if all of your things are still there

Resources: ZOTERO. Zotero is a free (you can pay to get more storage), open-source citation manager with optional browser plugins. IT WILL FORMAT CITATIONS FOR YOU. (sometimes you have to edit them, but most of the time it can pull metadata and format things correctly on its own). You can sort your references into folders or with tags, read and annotate PDF copies on your computer or in a mobile app, and make notes - which I used to keep track of specific quotations I wanted to use.

You can also use online resources like The Encyclopedia of Archaeological Sciences, that I think is mostly free or the Handbook of Archaeological Sciences which I think is also mostly free. If you can't get a hold of those things you can also email the authors/editors and they might send you a free copy or look them up on Academia.edu and see if they have a free version. Also, if you don't already, use Google Scholar, it's the best resource for finding free articles and topics to read. It's also never too early to start using something like Zotaro, Mendeley, or Endnote to keep track of your readings and help you with citations/references in papers. You can literally download the citation, import it into one of those systems and it automatically formats your referencing.
