Fresno-area children meet a real robot

Children from Fresno and Clovis got to practice programing a robot Sunday in a technology training session at the BitWise Academy.

NAO, a “humanoid” robot created by the technology company Aldebaran, was on hand for the young developers to see and experience. NAO can be programmed to walk, catch objects and dance.

Fresno software engineer Csaba Toth organized the gathering, which was held at BitWise’s South Stadium building.
