Join us for another exciting session of Portland's longest-running robotics meetup! This month, we're thrilled to welcome Dr. Joe Cole, an honored member of our community, who will be presenting on Teaching Physical AI with the PARTS Common Platform.

Abstract

At Rose City Robotics, we use hands-on robotics to bridge the gap between abstract AI and real-world autonomy. In our Engineer Boldly: AI Robotics Sprint, students learn physical AI by building and programming mobile robots that perceive, map, and act in the physical world using modern tools such as ROS 2, LiDAR-based SLAM, and deep-learning-based perception.

This talk describes how we use the PARTS Common Platform robot as a shared, open foundation for teaching embodied intelligence. Students train and deploy object-detection models, experiment with imitation and reinforcement learning, and confront the real challenges of noisy sensors, imperfect models, and hardware constraints. By learning AI directly on physical robots, participants develop an intuition for autonomy that cannot be gained from simulation alone.

I’ll share lessons learned, example student projects, and why accessible, community-designed platforms like the Common Platform are essential for educating the next generation of roboticists.

Who Should Attend This presentation is designed for robotics enthusiasts of all levels. Whether you're a professional engineer, a hobbyist, a student, or simply curious about the intersection of AI and robotics, you'll find valuable insights in this talk.

About the Speaker Dr. Joseph (Joe) Cole is a distinguished figure in the Portland robotics community and an honored member of P.A.R.T.S. With a Ph.D. in Applied Physics, Joe brings over 20 years of experience developing computer vision and machine learning algorithms.

As the co-founder and Chief Technology Officer at Rose City Robotics, Joe is currently focused on building robots for many tasks. His extensive background includes work at Northrop Grumman, Applied Materials, and YorLabs, specializing in image processing and applied physics.

Joe has been a valued contributor to the Portland Area Robotics Society, regularly sharing his expertise through presentations and helping to bridge the gap between professional robotics development and our local community.

About P.A.R.T.S. The Portland Area RoboTics Society (P.A.R.T.S.) is THE longest-running robotics meetup in Portland. We are an Oregon non-profit formed to help those interested in learning about and building robots. Our monthly meetings are open to the public and welcome everyone from professionals to amateurs, students to professors, engineers to artists. P.A.R.T.S. members explore all aspects of robotics and work toward expanding communication between robot enthusiasts. We share ideas, experience, and enthusiasm for building robots in an informal and supportive environment.

What to Bring

Your curiosity and questions A robot (working or not) if you'd like to share or get help A notebook or laptop for capturing ideas After the Presentation As always, there will be time for Q&A and informal discussions after the presentation. This is your chance to connect with other robotics enthusiasts, share your projects, and get feedback from the community.

From data centers to grid intelligence, the future of AI depends on energy and the future of energy depends on AI— especially here in the Pacific Northwest.

Join founders, investors, and operators for a conversation at the Energy and AI Nexus. We will explore where AI and energy intersect today and where the biggest market opportunities are emerging across the Pacific Northwest for how we better manage, understand, operate and report on energy use for the grid, mobility, buildings and computational power.

This interactive webinar will cover market trends, investment signals, and what entrepreneurs should know if they’re building AI for energy, energy for AI, or infrastructure that connects the two. We want to hear from you on your experience and insights in this rapidly changing landscape.

Together, the panel will unpack what investors are paying attention to, industry signals and thoughts on what founders in the Pacific Northwest should be building next.

Moderated by Katherine Juengel, with insights from leaders across AI, energy, and climate tech.

Panelists include:

Katherine Juengel (moderator), Green Cities Industry Liaison at Prosper Portland

Jim Huston, venture capitalist and longtime clean tech investor, member E8 Angels

Other panelists TBD

This 3-hour workshop uses the Portland Art Museum as a setting to slow down and look at how you think. It is designed for those feeling mentally overloaded or under sustained pressure who want a structured way to step back.

We use the museum as a quiet, neutral environment to slow down observation. Using art as a shared reference point for reflection, we look at patterns of thinking without requiring personal disclosure or art knowledge.

Advanced registration is required to keep the group size small. The exact meeting location within the museum will be sent upon registration.

The Format:

90 minutes in the museum: Moving through galleries using simple observation prompts.

90 minutes of conversation: A facilitated discussion afterward at a nearby coffee shop to talk about what resonated and why.

Follow-up: Includes an optional one-hour Zoom check-in two weeks later.

Cost: $85. Note: Museum admission is $27.50, paid directly to the museum (free for members).

Facilitator: Ryan has worked in the arts for over 20 years and serves as a business coach and mentor. This workshop uses art as a practical tool to create perspective on how we think and work.

Happy New Year geo-nerds!

PDXOSGeo connects again this week, Wednesday Jan 21, 6:30p Hot Lips Pizza @ the Natural Capital Center 721 NW 9th Ave, Portland OR. Join us for some show and tell and good open geo discussion!

We're striving to post our speaker a couple weeks in advance of the meeting, so watch this space!

Legendary Lunch #2 is where unexpectedly unemployed professionals and early-stage entrepreneurs meet each other at the moment when plans are still forming.

This is not a motivational event and not a career wake. It’s real people in real space having honest conversations about what comes next.

We believe opportunity still moves through people in rooms, not platforms and feeds. Legendary Lunch is designed as an open field of possibility at human scale: you show up willing to share what you’re trying to figure out next or who and what you’re seeking and the room helps you move.

What to expect

Networking-first (you’ll meet people quickly, without awkward “so what do you do?” loops)

Two short talks to give the room shared context

An unconference where attendees shape the sessions, discussions, and collaborations

Who it’s for

Unexpectedly unemployed professionals

Early-stage entrepreneurs, builders, and operators

Anyone in a career transition who wants clarity, collaborators, or the next door to knock on

What to bring

You don’t need a pitch or a polished plan. Bring one of these:

What you’re trying to figure out next

Who/what you’re seeking (a role, a person, a collaborator, a resource)

If you’re willing to help and willing to ask for help, you’ll fit right in.

Agenda / schedule

12:00 PM – 1:00 PM | Lunch Session (Two 30-minute talks)

Surj Patel: What’s Ahead for AI in 2026
A practical look at what’s likely to change next, what signals matter, and what to pay attention to now.

Shashi Jain: English Is the New Programming Language
Why natural language is becoming the interface, and what that changes for builders, teams, and careers.

1:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Unconference + Open Networking + Collaboration
The room opens into a true unconference format: open networking, self-organized discussions, impromptu working groups, and small collaborations that form around shared interests, needs, and ideas. You can stay as long as you like this is where the most durable connections tend to happen.

Featured unconference session

Town Hall: The Employment Environment (Layoffs + what’s next)

Hosted by Kristin Wolff, a policy analyst who has worked with the Department of Labor. Grounded, practical conversation about what’s aheadand how to think clearly when things feel unstable.
Timing will be posted on the unconference board day-of.

Unconference prompt

During the unconference, you can propose:

A problem you’re stuck on

A tool you’re testing

An idea you want feedback on

A collaboration you want to start

A role you want to move into

A resource (or person) you’re seeking

Community boundary

One firm boundary: if a topic is offensive, overtly political, or intentionally polarizing, we’ll ask you to refrain. If the tone becomes mean-spirited or disingenuous, we’ll intervene.
If it’s open, encouraging, grounded, useful, or exploratory, it’s welcome. This room is for constructive public thinking, not ideological combat.
