ModLinker is an attempt to create a set of tools for making modular hardware systems, like robots, simple to create, reuse, scale, and share. The talk will be an introduction to the system followed by a request for beta-testers.
The beta version of the system is based around Raspberry Pi Pico microcontrollers and MicroPython. It is designed to be simple enough for beginners but also allows features for more advanced users.

DPRG held its 30th Roborama competition on May 23, 2026. The competition was brisk, with several outstanding performances. A new club record was set in Six Cans by Ray Casler, who broke Scott Gibson’s long winning streak in this contest. However, Scott remained a strong competitor across all the contests, achieving a less than 1/2-inch “start to end” difference in 4-Corners. Scott also continued to dominate the mini-Sumo contest despite pressure from Mike Williamson. Mike Williamson won Barrel Racing with his ROS 2 robot RR26.
