<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROS_(Robot_Operating_System)>, a widely
used open-source
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source_software> robotics software
platform.*

*Ng is also the author or co-author of over 100 published papers in machine
learning, robotics and related fields, and some of his work in computer
