Summary

In this chapter, you learned how to find out who else and where else robots like the ones we covered in this chapter are being made, as well as how to be part of those communities. Sharing knowledge with other robot builders will accelerate your journey.

You've also learned where to compete with a robot, where to get more advice, and how to find information to progress the different skills you've started building much further. This inspiration and direction should make it easy for you to keep growing your robot skills.

In the next chapter, we will summarize everything that we have learned throughout this book, with a view toward building your next robot.
